Ethanol traces in natural waters checked using a new DMFC enzymatic device.
The use of fuels with strong percentage of ethanol that is done in countries such as Brazil and Australia causes a more and more relevant presence of traces of ethanol in natural waters. The ethanol present in these fuels seems to contribute to increase, through various mechanisms, the concentration of hydrocarbons in the same waters and soil. The ethanol content in natural waters must therefore be monitored frequently. It was therefore proposed a very simple innovative method, based on a catalytic fuel cell with the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme immobilized in the anodic compartment of the device. The analytical performances of this new device were then evaluated by checking traces of alcohol in different types of natural waters (rain, river, and groundwater), with a good degree of precision and with an acceptable level of accuracy.
