Abstract:Abstract. We present a compact and versatile cryofocusing thermodesorption unit, which we developed for quantitative analysis of halogenated trace gases in ambient air. Possible applications include aircraft-based in-situ measurements, in situ monitoring and laboratory operation for the preconcentration of analytes from flask samples. Analytes are trapped on adsorptive material cooled by a Stirling cooler to low temperatures (e.g. −80 °C) and desorbed subsequently by rapid heating of the adsorptive material (e… Show more
