  The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) exist in tap water and environment water. Measurement of VOCs is necessary by the regulations system. The experiments are carried out by Purge-Trap GC/MS or Head Space GC/MS. Now 23 compounds of VOCs are monitored in Japan by the present regulation. Generally about thirty minutes is required to run one sample. It is essential to shorten the time for analysis. In this paper we describe the effect of shortening the length of the column on the runtime of head space-GC/MS.

Key words: Volatile organic compounds, Fast-GC/MS, Head space-GC/MS
