Abstract

The study presents the efficiency of sewage sludge sample clean-up with the application of SPE columns with various types of adsorbents. Six columns were tested: C8-octyl, C18 PolarPlus, C18-octadecyl, silicagel (SG), phenyl, cyano. The highest efficiency of recovery was observed for C18-octadecyl. Then, using C18, the method was optimised by changing the following parameters: eluent type and volume, column drying and effect of washing of cartridge.
