Rapid Identification of Oil Contamination in Process Water Using Fluorescence Excitation Emission Matrix and Parallel Factor Analysis

In this application note, the authors present a novel, rapid method for identifying low concentrations of oil contamination in process water using Fluorescence Excitation Emission Matrix (FEEM) combined with Parallel Factor Analysis (PARAFAC). This method allows for quick detection and analysis of oil contaminants in process water, offering a practical solution for industries where timely intervention is crucial.
