چکیده

The development of an in-line digestion system based on simple UV lamp is reported. The effect of photolysis on the preconcentration of copper was investigated using an in-line Chelex-l00 ion-exchange column linked to an atomic absorption spectrometer. Three model ligands, glycine, NTA and EDTA, have been used to demonstrate the effect of the digestion system. In a stopped-flow mode, over 90% of the complexed copper was recovered in the presence of any of the three ligands. When the UV lamp was turned off, this changed to 84, 45 and 2% recovery for the glycine, NTA and EDTA complexed copper, respectively. The ability to analyse samples with the UV lamp on or off means that the device may be used to study the speciation of the copper.

On-line preconcentration and determination of copper, lead and chromium(VI) using unloaded polyurethane foam packed column by flame atomic absorption spectrometry in natural waters and biological samples.

A simple, sensitive and low cost, flow injection time-based method was developed for on-line preconcentration and determination of copper, lead and chromium(VI) at sub mug l(-1) levels in natural waters and biological samples. At the optimum pH, the on-line formed metal-ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (APDC) complexes were sorbed on the unloaded commercial polyurethane foam (PUF), and subs...

A flow system for the spectrophotometric determination of lead in different types of waters using ion-exchange for pre-concentration and elimination of interferences.

A flow system for the spectrophotometric determination of lead in natural and waste waters is proposed. The determination is based on the colorimetric reaction between malachite green and iodide, followed by the formation of a ternary complex between those reagents and lead cations. The developed flow system includes a lead pre-concentration step in a column packed with a cationic resin (Chelex...

A fully automated flow injection atomic absorption system for the determination of copper traces in waters with on-line pre-concentration in an ion-exchange column

The paper describes the development of an automatic on-line column pre-concentration technique using a time based-flow injection atomic absorption spectrometry system. A manifold incorporating a micro-column containing 25 mg of Dowex 50W-X8 was used with a time-based injector for the pre-concentration and determination of copper in natural and drinking waters. The system features depend on the ...

Fluid Dynamics in a Copper Converter: an Investigation on Mixing Phenomena in an Experimental Model

In this study, the mixing phenomena and fluid dynamics in a copper converter have been experimentally investigated using a physical model. The physical model is a 1:5 horizontal tank made of Plexiglas. The mixing phenomena have been characterized by experimentally measuring the mixing time using a tracer dispersion technique. Moreover, the effects of the air flow rate and lance submergence on t...
