Abstract

Abstract Studies have been made on the instrumental parameters affecting the performance of the solution-reduction and the thermal-volatilization techniques of flameless atomic absorption for mercury. Optimum conditions established for the solution-reduction technique were: gas flow 5 L/min, stirring time 100 sec, and stirring rate at least 1250 rpm. Optimum conditions for the thermal-volatilization technique were: flow rate 1.5 L/min, heating time 20 sec. The 2 techniques are compared.
