Engineering and Development Support of General Decon Technology for the DARCOM Installation Restoration Program. Task 10. Analysis of LAAP Lagoon Water

Abstract

A sample of lagoon water was received on 7 May 1981 from Louisiana AAP. This sample was immediately refrigerated until analysis. The lagoon water sample was a deep red-orange color and contained no particulates. The pH of the sample as received was 8.0. The following analyses were run on this sample: - COD - lead and zinc - neutral, basic and acidic ethyl ether extractions followed by GC-MS of the concentrated extracts to identify components - derivatization of the acidic extract and GC/MS of the derivative to identify acidic components - quantitation of RDX, TNT, and 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene (TNB).
