Determination of mercury in water by furnace atomic absorption spectrometry after reduction and aeration

Abstract: Mercury present in water samples Is reduced to the metal in a bubbler and sparged from the solution with a stream of air. The gas stream is filtered through porous, gold-plated graphite furnace atomizer tubes which retain the mercury. The tubes are then placed into either a carbon rod atomizer or a Woodriff furnace for the actual atomic absorption (AA) mercury determination. Each determination takes about 3 minutes. The detection limit Is about 10 parts-per-trllllon.

“…A number of different criteria could he used in judging the potential of the hydride generation technique as an analytical method, but perhaps one of the most fundamental considerations is whether or not the technique is viable for analysis of complex samples. Studies involving grain (39), air particulates (40), tobacco samples (41), raw sewage (15, 42), steel alloys (19,43), animal feed mixes (44), a variety of foods (16), biological samples (35,36), and geochemical samples (30) have been published. The variety and number of samples indicate that future studies involving hydride generation could be readily applied to complex sample analysis.…”

“…This means that the determination sensitivity is influenced by gas-flow rate, and that slight changes in the flow rate between measurements would also impair the reproducibility of the determination. 10 In order to circumvent these problems, methods for the determination of mercury have been developed using a combination of the cold vapor generation technique, trapping in a porous gold-plated graphite mini-tube, 11 a goldcoated 12,13 or a platinum-lined graphite tube, 10 followed by atomic absorption spectrometric detection.…”
