    Author: Huang Z, Zhou W, Yu YJ, Zhang AQ, Han SK, Wang LS.
    Journal: J Environ Sci (China); 2004; 16(1):56-60. PubMed ID: 14971453.
    Abstract:
    Enrichment of volatile organic compounds(VOC) and semi-volatility organic compounds(SVOC) in surface microlayer(SM) of three drinking water sources were studied. The enrichment factor(EFs) were 0.67 to 13.37 and 0.16 to 136, respectively. The results showed some VOC and most SVOC could enrich in SM. Some EFs of SVOC was quite high. Suspension and temperature could affect EFs of SVOC, slim wind and water movement do not destroy enrichment of organic in SM.
