Field detection of hazardous materials
Principle and purpose of field detection methods of hazardous materials like explosives, chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial compounds and biological agents. Short review of contemporary field detection methods use by military and police services: Raman spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), mass spectrometry (MS), UV-VIS spectroscopy, laser induced fluorescence (LIF), quartz-microbalance (QMB). The most important goals of new research and development project conducted in Military University of Technology: development of existing methods of field detection, cross-detection in field analysis, the use of devices outside their main purpose, the improving of existing procedures for elimination of threats generated by hazardous materials used for criminal purposes.
