Objective To investigate the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) contamination in the water sources of city drinking water in Heilongjiang Province. Methods Fifteen water samples were collected from 6 water sources in May to June in 2006. The method in EPA524.2 of the United States was referred and the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to determine VOCs. Results The precision and accuracy of this method could meet the determination. The rates of recovery were 63%-118%, RSD was ≤26%. Five kinds of VOCs in the water samples were detected, they were 1,2-dichloroethane, chloroform, toluene, styrene and isopropylbenzene. Conclusion The investigation shows that the volatile organic compounds are detected in the water sources of city drinking water in Heilongjiang Province.
