Methods for the determination of platinum group elements originating from the abrasion of automotive catalytic converters

Abstract: Anthropogenic emission of platinum group elements (PGEs) from the abrasion of automotive catalytic converters into the environment has significantly increased. However, the concentration level of these PGEs (i.e. Pd, Pt, Rh) is still very low in the nature. Accordingly, their determination and speciation in various environmental compartments appears to be a challenging task for analytical chemists. The present review gives an overview of the analytical procedures documented in this particular field of analytic… Show more

“…However, some platinum salts, such as hexachloroplatinates and tetrachloroplatinates belong to a group of chemicals that is responsible for an increase in many health problems [11]. For this reason, there is a necessity to constantly monitor the concentration levels of these heavy metals both in biological samples and in the environment [12]. One of the pathways leading to the spread of PGEs in the environment is via precipitation and the resulting run-offs [13,14].…”

“…LODabs= slope (LOD) + yB (6) where yi and are the measured absorbance and the absorbance from the regression equation; respectively. SD is the standard deviation of absorbance from the regression line (Equation 4), LODabs is the limit of detection of the absorbance, yB is the intercept of the calibration line and LOD is the detection limit expressed in concentration unit.…”

“…The problems in the determination of trace Pd in environmental, biological samples are the very low concentrations and lack of appropriate certified reference materials (CRMs) for validation of the methods [1]. The determination of palladium using many techniques encountered many complications such as the irreversibility of the electrode processes [4], using electrochemical methods, working at the nuclear reactor facility and using short irradiation and cooling times using neutron activation analysis, interferences from a lot of elements using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry [5][6][7]. Therefore in most cases separation and preconcentration methods are developed before measurement [6,8].…”
