Published requirement description

Lot 1: Gas chromatography mass spectrometer system for target and non-target screening.

Lot 2: Two dimensional/comprehensive gas chromatography flame ionisation detector system (GC x GC FID) for total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) analysis.

The equipment will be used for analysing a range of environmental matrices including waters (freshwater, groundwater, treated effluents) soils, sediments, passive sampler extracts and associated materials after appropriate extraction and pre-treatment. The sample extracts will be examined for a wide range of compounds to comply with the requirements of the Water Framework Directive plus other environmental directives and pollution incident response analysis.

The purchase of the equipment will include 1 year warranty followed by 4 years of annual maintenance and support.
