Abstract:

We designed an online sensor for detecting the oil content in seawater with fluorescence detection technology. Experiments show that its performance is stable, detection limit of 3 μg/L. Its linear detection range can be extended to 1 mg/L by subsection calibration. The sensor therefore preliminarily has online measurement capability of oil content detection in seawater.

Key words: fluorescence method, sensor, oil, ocean pollution
