Abstract
A denuder sampling method combined with HPLC analysis for the simultaneous determination of formaldehyde and ozone in ambient air is described. It is based on the reactions of CH2O and O3 with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) and 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol (eugenol)_respectively, both acting as coatings of two annular denuders connected in series. Formaldehyde released from the ozonolysis of eugenol is quantitatively collected on a third downstream DNPH-coated denuder. The two DNPH denuders are then extracted and analyzed as hydrazone derivative by HPLC with UV absorbance detection.
