Abstract
Abstract A procedure using gas-liquid chromatography has been devised for the simultaneous analysis of a range of pesticides in the River Aire. It was essential to incorporate a clean-up system because the river is so heavily polluted. Analysis of samples showed that α-BHC, γ-BHC and dieldrin were usually present. Malathion, DDT, and DDE were detected occasionally. It is suggested that the pesticides originate in wool-scouring mills, the mill effluents entering the river via the Bradford Corporation Sewage Works.
