Fast on site identification of hazardous compounds for correct assessment of possible risks to the population and the environment is essential in case of fire and chemical disasters. The aim of our development has been to establish new simple sample preparation and analytical procedures based on a semi-automatic Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer system (GC/MS) to detect gases, volatile and semivolatile organic compounds (VOC, SOC). The procedures should make it possible to perform sampling and analysis in less than 10 minutes.
