- Abstract:
- Monitoring of hydrocarbon pollutants at the entrance of wastewater treatment plants is imperative for keeping them in good working order. The systems of detection existing on the market place are firstly analysed in order to understand why they are not an effective solution to the problem. The needed characteristics of an acceptable system follows from this analysis. A study of the different methods applicable to the distinction hydrocarbon/water allowed to highlight the attractive method of fluorescence. The main originality of our paper is the transposition of this method to the problem of concern. We conclude by the validation of our method through an in-situ preliminary test.
