""Total volatile organic compounds" as the group of compounds are not generally used. TVOC is a grouping of a wide range of organic chemical compounds to simplify reporting when these are present in ambient air or emissions. Many substances, such as natural gas, could be classified as volatile organic compounds (VOCs).May 26, 2014

Example sentence(s):
  • The results showed variations of TVOC and individual VOC substances of the same order of magnitude as had been found in previous round-robin tests.
  • On a observé une grande disparité des résultats tant pour les COVT que pour chaque COV quantifié, disparité similaire à celle obtenue lors de précédents tests inter-laboratoires.
