Possibilities of using a Portable Continuous Concentrator for Detection and Identification of Explosives
The submitted paper deals with the problems of
trapping and enriching the gases and aerosols of the substances to be
determined in the ambient atmosphere. Further, the paper is focused
on the working principle of the miniaturized portable continuous
concentrator we have designed and the possibilities of its
application in air sampling and accumulation of organic and
inorganic substances with which the air is contaminated. The stress is
laid on trapping vapours and aerosols of solid substances with the
comparatively low vapour tension such as explosive compounds.
