title: Chemometric procedure for the study of fractionated wastewater ingredients using RP-HPLC/diode array spectrophotometer.
abstract: A fast screening method of domestic wastewater is reported based on fractionation with RP-HPLC and diode array absorption detection implemented by chemometric treatment of the spectra using cluster analysis, deconvolution, simulation, and multiple regression statistical techniques. The proposed method is limited to constituents that absorb in the UV-Vis region which include most of the toxic organic pollutants.
