Abstract

A Fourier transform infrared remote sensor (FTIR-RS) has been used at a Superfund site to make measurements of the concentrations of various gases. An attempt was made to measure benzaldehyde and benzonitrile along with methane and carbon monoxide. The results of these measurements are discussed. We also attempted to compare the FTIR-RS results with those from canister samples, and this comparison is also discussed.
