To solve environmental problems in the current economic conditions, the use of achievements in scientific and technol. progress acquires the special significance. This primarily concerns the creation, optimization, and improvement of environmentally friendly technologies for purification and neutralization of industrial emissions, new technologies for purification and disinfection of drinking water, development and implementation of environment improving phytotechnologies and many other environmental and health-improving measures. The present system of environmental and anal. monitoring of the state of environmental objects exposed to various technologies for its recovery, based on the use of phys. and chem. or biol. factors, requires the control of chem. safety, taking into account the possibility of formation of byproducts of transformation with respect to their harmlessness for use. The studies were performed using a chromatog.-mass spectrometric system including a gas chromatograph with full electronic control of gas flows and a digital pressure and flow control mode with automatic determination of column parameters, mass spectrometric detector with a quadrupole mass analyzer that provides measurements in the range of mass numbers from 1 to 1050, and a thermal desorber with a gas sample cryo-focusing. Examples of assessing the effectiveness and chem. safety of the application of new environmental protection technologies for cleaning air emissions from a number of enterprises and measures for improving the air environment of enclosed spaces show that their application, on the one hand, is aimed at directly addressing their specific purpose, i.e., a significant reduction in the qual. and quant. composition of pollutants in production emissions has been established, including an important component in terms of environmental aspects, such as the smell and on the other hand – a neg. side effect associated with the formation of toxic and dangerous products of transformation is simultaneously established, even for substances of natural origin, a significant part of which does not have hygienic standards, and consequently their impact on public health remains unaccounted. The side effect was often manifested by a change in the direction of deterioration in the chem. composition of the environment object that is phys. and chem. affected by the use of the new technol. For an adequate assessment of the quality of the environment and chem. safety of public health, an important condition is to take into account the multicomponent nature of the composition of chem. contaminants and to take into account the transformation products of substances affecting humans under real environmental conditions. Studies focused on identification with a quant. assessment of air emission components before and after the application of a new environmental technol. or a better environmental and health improvement measure allow to monitor environmental objects taking into account the actual content and changes in the group and component composition under the influence of the chem. impact of new technol. and to make recommendations for further improvement of the new technol. from the point of view of environmental aspects, which, in turn, is aimed at preserving the health of the population. And 3,7-Dimethyloctan-3-ol (cas: 78-69-3) was used in the research process.
3,7-Dimethyloctan-3-ol(cas:78-69-3) is a fatty alcohol that is 3-octanol substituted by methyl groups at positions 3 and 7.Reference of 3,7-Dimethyloctan-3-ol Metabolite observed in cancer metabolism. It has a role as a human metabolite.
