VOC Gas Mixtures

VOC Gases

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) gases are a diverse group of organic chemicals that easily evaporate at room temperature. Due to their reactive properties, these gases are valuable in numerous industrial and commercial applications. 

Common VOC gases include benzene, acetone, xylene, formaldehyde, ethylene glycol and toluene. Although these compounds are essential in various processes, they must be handled carefully due to potential negative health and environmental impacts.

VOC Detection

Detecting VOC gases accurately is crucial for protecting human health, preventing environmental contamination and maintaining regulatory compliance. Methods and technologies for detecting VOCs include:

  • Photoionization detectors (PIDs): These sensors offer high sensitivity and accuracy for detecting low levels of VOCs.
  • Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) sensors: MOS sensors measure changes in resistance caused by gas interactions. They are commonly used for general air quality monitoring.
  • Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS): This laboratory-based technique provides detailed analysis and identification of VOC components.
