Abstract
Comparative elemental analysis of the Tengiz oil and diesel fuel is performed by inductively coupled plasma mass-spectrometry with autoclave digestion, digestion, dilution with organic solvents, and also rotating coiled columns (RCCs). The advantages and drawbacks of each of the listed sample preparation techniques for the separation of microelements are discussed. In contrast to the other versions, the use of RCCs is shown to provide a unique opportunity to preconcentrating microelements from oil and petroleum products into tiny volumes of aqueous solutions (10 mL of 0.5 M HNO3). The eluate prepared can be used in the subsequent analysis by ICP MS with no extra sample preparation steps. The RCC preconcentration of elements from oil and petroleum products makes it possible to determine metals in concentrations from μg/kg to ng/kg.
