Aromatic Hydrocarbons such as benzene and its derivatives, toluene and xylene often referred as BTX are used as starting materials in a multitude of products from pharmaceuticals, dyes, polymers to agrochemicals.

These aromatics are known to cause health effects from chronic exposure and even benzene is listed as a cancer causing substance. In production processes cooling water and condensed water can become contaminated with these compounds. It is therefore necessary to have reliable and fast methods to determine and control the amount of these compounds as well as effective methods for treatment and removal.

Gas chromatography is the most commonly used method for measurement. However, there is demand for alternative methods utilising fast on-line analyzes with lower running costs.

Aromatic hydrocarbons show good absorption characteristics in UV-vis region due to the high level of conjugated bonds present.
