The Soil-Cell system is developed for the extraction of semi-volatile organic compounds in soil samples. The Soil-Cell system meets the requirements of the Performance Based Measurement System established by the EPA and replaces microwave technology with a HotBlock and stainless steel Soil Extraction Cells. Analytical results of a CRM (Certified Reference Material) for PAH/BNA and TPH fell within the required acceptance limits and were very reproducible. Real world soil samples were also extracted using this procedure for PAH/BNA, TPH, and PCB compounds and compared to results achieved using SW846 Method 3545A. Results were comparable for all three groups of compounds.

Replacement black Viton® O-Rings—great for soil extractions.
