<p>This part of ISO 8165 specifies a method for the determination of phenols by gas chromatography, following</p>
<p>pentafluorobenzoyl chloride (PFBC) derivatization. It may in particular be applied to the examination of drinking</p>
<p>water, ground water and moderately contaminated surface water. With this method, lower limits of detection may be</p>
<p>obtained compared with extraction procedures.</p>
<p>Since other reactive compounds such as amines and in some cases alcohols may also react, this method is not</p>
<p>applicable in all cases to the examination of waste water. The applicability to the examination of waste water should</p>
<p>be investigated for each individual case.</p>
<p>This method allows the determination of the phenols listed in Table 1 in a concentration range > 0,1 mg/l. Other</p>
<p>monovalent phenols may also be analysed using this method, but the applicability needs to be checked for each</p>
<p>individual case.</p>
