6 What s on the program Different passive samplers Procedures, material and methods Working principles Parameters needed Polar samplers

7 Passive sampler types Macro samplers extract and multiple analyses semipermeable membrane devices SPMD single-phase strip samplers low-density polyethylene (LDPE) polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS, silicone rubber) polyoxymethylene (POM) 18-based disk samplers (hematcher, a.o. (Polar compounds: POIS, 18...) (ceramic dosimeter) Micro passive samplers all sorbed is injected - one shot solid-phase microextraction (SPME) stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) rod samplers (MESO)

8 Deployment of SR and SPMD

11 leaning sheets after recovery leaning samplers in the lab Better clean samplers in the field with local water and scourer During transport and storage redistribution could occur

12 Processing of passive samplers: SPMD Sealed in a can or glass jar Transport to Lab Extract Discard/ re-use Exterior cleaning in field Dialytic or soxhlet extraction leanup Sampler - Exposure Pre-clean spike G/MS - analysis Instrumental analysis

13 What to do with the data First need to understand the uptake

14 w Pasivesampler K / pw p When equilibrium is attained Passive sampler Surface water w w = p /K pw V w = infinitive Sampling rate R s - V p =m p K pw

15 Uptake process from water Water Boundary layer controlled Passive sampler Boundary layer Bulk water Relative conc. p /S p Diffussion W /S W p K pw D δ p D w δ w mass transfer coefficients

16 w Pasivesampler K / pw p Uptake process by a passive sampler Passive sampler Surface water w w = p /K pw V w = infinitive Sampling rate R s - V p =m p K pw

17 w Pasivesampler K / pw p Intermediate situation Passive sampler Surface water w w = p /K pw V w = infinitive Sampling rate R s - V p =m p K pw

18 How to estimate sampling rate (R s ) Release and uptake process can be mirrored Measure release of performance reference compounds (PRs) added prior to exposure

19 w Pasivesampler K / pw p Performanc reference compounds (PR) release Passive sampler Surface water w V w = infinitive Sampling rate R s - V p =m p K pw

21 Release of PRs with time Days deployment fraction PR retained log(k pw M 0.47 ) Data from ELIPSE project

22 Required for calculation w reference Sampler-water partition coefficient (PRs and targets) [1] Sampling rate modeled with R s =F / M 0.47 [2] Measured PR dissipation f exp =N t /N 0 fitted with f calc = e K pw F M t 0.47 m adjustable Variable, different PRs using non-linear regression fit of f exp and f calc [3] No membrane control on uptake [4] [1] Smedes et al. EST 2009 [2] Rusina et al EST 2010 [3] Booij and Smedes EST 2010 [4] Rusina et al hemosphere 2007

23 A lot of parameters needed! is that worth while?

25 Adsorption passive samplers used for passive sampling of polar compounds compounds well soluble in water, 1. show little absorbtion in polymers 2. usually present at higher concentrations than hydrophobic compounds higher solubility implies more possibility for fluctuations of water concentration integrative sampling needed
