Abstract

Continuous flow analysis (CFA) is suitable for rapid and reliable determination of free FeIII in organic-free, UV-oxidized seawater when used in conjunction with an extrapolation method that predicts the steady-state potentials of an FeIII chalcogenide glass ion-selective electrode (ISE) by using initial data associated with a step-wise change in aFe3+. It is shown that the CFA technique yields a Nernstian response of a 30 mV per decade change in aFe3+ in saline citrate buffers in the range of 10−22 to 10−1 M Fe3+. Validation of the CFA technique in organic-free, UV-oxidized seawater has demonstrated that the response of the FeIII ISE is internally consistent with the well-known inorganic speciation equilibria occurring in natural seawater. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
