A method based on solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID) has been optimized for the determination of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX) in water released from a waste treatment plant. The extraction step was optimized using fractional factorial and centralcomposite designs including the following experimental factors: saline concentration; extraction time; desorption time; agitation velocity; headspace volume. A multiple function was used to describe the experimental conditions for simultaneous extraction of the compounds. The procedure, based on direct SPME at 50 ◦C, using a polydimethylsiloxane fiber, showed good linearity (r > 0.997 over a concentration range 2–200 gL−1) and repeatability (relative standard deviation (RSD) < 4.23%) for all compounds, with limits of detection ranging from 0.05 to 0.28 gL−1, and limits of quantification ranging from 0.14 to 0.84 gL−1. Concentrations of the target compounds in these sampleswere between 145.8 and 1891 gL−1.
