Determination of Calcium, Magnesium, and Sodium in Wastewater by Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectroscopy.

摘要

Inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) has been used for the determination of calcium, magnesium, and sodium in industrial wastewater samples. The method developed employs the Qualitative mode of a Leeman Labs Plasma-Spec III Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) Spectrometer. Analytical results using the Qualitative mode were compared to those obtained using ICP Sequential analysis, flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS), and flame emission. 1 ref., 6 tabs.
