Determination of Trace Elements in Toluene Using ICPE-9000 and Oxygen Kit

23 Dec 2014

To evaluate the elemental pollution in petrochemical field of application, there is the need to measure organic samples in a direct way, as concentrations might be very low. In this application note, the Shimadzu ICPE-9000 was used to perform fast multi element analysis.

ICPE-9000

ICPE-9000 is a simultaneous ICP-OES spectrometer utilizing a vacuum type Echelle optical system in combination with a large scale CCD detector designed for stable performance over extended periods. The ICPE-9000’s innovative Mini Torch minimizes cost by reducing consumption of argon gas to half that of conventional torches. The ICPE-9000 features easy-to-use, innovative ICPEsolution Software, which offers such features as a Method Development Assistant and a Diagnosis Assistant and easily handles automatic wavelength optimization as well as interference corrections.

Atomic Absorption / Emission SpectroscopyAtomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) — also called optical emission spectroscopy (OES) — are used to detect the elemental constituents in samples. Both techniques involve the atomization of a sample. Atomic absorption spectrometers may use a flame or furnace to create an atomic vapor of the sample before irradiation with spectral light. Optical emission spectrometers may use a flame, inductively coupled plasma (ICP), microwave plasma (MP) or spark arcs to atomize and excite the sample. At higher excitation energies, electrons can be emitted instead of photons, which can be useful for samples that can’t be atomized and for surface analysis. Explore electron spectroscopy equipment such as Auger spectrometers and photoelectron spectrometers for surface elemental analysis of samples.
