Abstract
Neutron activation analysis using shortlived77mSe (T=17.5 s) preceded by chemical pre-collection of Se on activated carbon (AC) has been applied to the fractional determination of Se(IV) and Se(VI) in natural water samples such as river water and sea water. Two chemical procedures were adopted: adsorption of Se(IV)/Bismuthiol-II complex on AC and adsorption of Se(VI)/Bismuthiol-II on AC after reduction of Se(VI) to Se(IV). It was shown that Se(IV) and Se(VI) can be determined at a <μg l−1 (ppb) level in natural waters by the present method.
