Low molecular mass carboxylic acids (LCAs) occur in many environmental compartments dueto natural processes and human activity. When volatile and nonvolatile acids are to be monitored then liquidchromatography, including ion chromatography seems a method of choice. At high pH the acids are inionized form and can be separated as carboxylats by means of anion exchange chromatography. LCAs canalso be separated at low pH by ion exclusion chromatography or by reverse phase chromatography. UsingDionex-3000 with a Acclaim Organic Acid, OA column dedicated to separation of organic acids the methodhas been developed to determine selected LCAs. With this analytical tool formic, acetic, propionic, butyricand also citric, malonic, and oxalic acids were determined in swine farm wastewater.
