Abstract
Trace elements (Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, Ni, Cu and Cr) were preconcentrated from sea water by retention on Chelex-100 resin, APDC/8-quinolinol complexation followed by extraction with 4-methyl-2-pentanon or Freon-113, or coprecipitation with Mg(OH) 2 or Fe(OH) 2. After consideratin of analytical blanks, extraction efficiency, precision preconcentration factor, and suitability for operation on board ship, the best results were obtained by preconcentrating Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, Ni and Cu on Chelex-100 resin and coprecipitation of chromium(III) and (VI) with Fe(OH) 2. Graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometry and inductively-coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry were used for the final measurements. The accuracy of the method was tested by using the reference sea water sample NASS-1.
