Efficient Extraction of Fuel Oil Hydrocarbons from Wood

Abstract: Sequential cold (room temperature) extraction from aged contaminated wood samples (southern yellow pine) with acetone followed by n-pentane (upon a 3 -4 days of sample incubation with each solvent) yielded more than 90% analyte recovery for both ambient (natural moisture content) and water-submerged wood, significantly exceeding the recoveries obtained with one-step extraction using single solvents and/or their mixtures. By contrast, a much faster ultrasound/Soxhlet extraction led to a virtually complete analy… Show more

“…The supernatants were then taken into small glass vials for GC-MS analysis to get the concentrations of those model organic compounds remained in the soils. This method was taken instead of the traditional approach, Soxhlet extraction because it gives nearly identical results that came from traditional method and is fast and less organic solvent required [21,22].…”
