    derivatized with o-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzyl)hydroxylamine hydrochloride (PFBHA). PFBHA allows indirect analysis of the highly reactive formaldehyde species by reacting in a 1:1 ratio with formaldehyde to produce a stable oxime compound that is then detected and quantified with GC/MS. The headspace analyses show that formaldehyde emissions from curing paint peak at approximately 100 min of curing and never rise above 25 ppb. 3:50 pm - Metal Deposition on High Surface Area Carbon Electrode

    Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) are very stable and unreactive compounds with the ability to bioaccumulate in organisms. This is alarming because we are projected to increase the amount of PFCs manufactured by quite a significant amount. The production and accumulation of PFCs in water systems across the globe has already been linked to numerous adverse health effects. Advanced Reduction Processes (ARPs) that enlist the help of hydrated electrons show promise for breaking down a variety of PFCs, including the most
