To determine the concentrations of total oils, petroleum hydrocarbons, and animal and vegetable oils in water, the conventional analytical methods involve two scans as well as a step of magnesium silicate adsorption to remove the animal and vegetable oils in water samples. In this study, a novel analytical method was developed to determine the above oils in wastewater samples through just one scan-the concentration of animal and vegetable oils, and that of total oils were determined by measuring the absorbance of the > C=O bond in the peak area between 1750 cm^-1 and 1735 cm^-1, and of the C-H bond at 2930 ^-1, 2960 cm^-1, and 3030 cm^-1, respectively. The concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons was then calculated by subtracting the concentration of animal and vegetable oils from that of total oils. Compared with the well-known analytical method GB/T 16488-1996, the novel approach displayed similar accuracy in the quantitative determination of oils in wastewater samples, but significantly reduced material cost and operation time.
