Alternate Title: Proton Transfer Reaction- Mass Spectrometer (PTR-MS)

Brief Description (Abstract):

As a part of High Altitude Cloud Physics Laboratory Aerosol chemistry instrumentation, the The PTR-MS instrument used and for real time monitoring of Volatile Organic compounds (VOC’S) with unprecedented limits of detection and time resolution. It helps to get anthropogenic emission monitoring: ppq-level sensitivity for benzene, toluene, and xylenes. Also detection of oxygenated VOC’S (OVOC’S) carried out with this instrument.

Status: Ongoing

Purpose: Real time monitoring of Volatile Organic compounds (VOCs) and OVOCS
