- •
Developed a new method for analyzing oil dispersants by measuring surface tension
- •
The method can accurately measure Corexit EC9500A and likely other dispersants.
- •
Minor changes in salinity, pH, and DOM do not alter surface tension measurements.
- •
Sediment exudates showed little interference with the method accuracy.
- •
The method accuracy was validated by comparing with TOC analysis.
