| Summary: | The main objective of this research project is to determine the performance of Gas
Chromatography using Flame Ionized Detector (GC/FID) and Ultra Violet visible
(UV-Vis) for the analysis and quantification of ethanol. This research project is based
on the development of analytical methods for enviromnental studies. Ethanol in
enviromnent might be present in air, soil, and water. Ethanol is a known contaminant
in enviromnental waters. Even though the concentration of ethanol is normally low in
the environment, analytical methods in determining the concentration of ethanol in
water need to be developed due to its effect on tumor growth hence human health in
general. Once it is identified and detected, the contaminants can be removed or
separate from the enviromnental waters. The scope of study for this project are to fmd
the best method in terms of accuracy and precision for the analysis of ethanol in water
and to use the best method identified to determine the ethanol content in
enviromnental samples. From the experimental results, GC/FID has higher accuracy
and precision. GC/FID is a good method in determining the lower concentration of
ethanol in water.
