Determination of Tetrachloroethene and Trichloroethane

Trichlorethylene and Tetrachlorethylene are chlorinated solvents that have been produced commercially for many years and are used in dry cleaning, stain removers, paints, adhesives and cleaning materials. In recent years, it has been used in degreasing metal parts and in the production of chlorinated chemicals.

Trichlorethylene and Tetrachlorethylene solvents may cause environmental pollution through hazardous waste areas and dirty water, as well as the exposure of employees and those living in the immediate vicinity in the areas where they are used. . It has been detected in indoor and outdoor air, water, food, and animal and human tissues.

They are the most commonly detected organic pollutants underground. Since both chemicals are used in industrial areas, they can mix with various water sources through wastewater discharge. Within the scope of chemical tests carried out to determine water quality, Tetrachloroethene and Trichloroethane Determination can also be preferred according to the sample.
