Following the phasing out of PFOS production in the US and Europe from 2003, an increasing number of alternative ‘regrettable’ replacement PFAS have been synthesized for multiple applications. An alternative approach requires an ozone generator to add the chemical oxidant, ozone, in a process termed ozofractionation29, 30.

The chemiluminescence detector (CLD) method of measuring NO is based on the use of a controlled amount of ozone (O3) coming into contact with the sample containing NO inside a light sealed chamber. This chamber has a photomultiplier fitted so that it measures the photons given off by the reaction that takes place between NO and O3.
