Publisher's Synopsis
This study describes the instrumentation required for chemical analysis by gas and liquid chromatography, interfaced with atomic spectroscopic detection techniques and flame photometric detection. It covers commercially available detector and interface instrumentation and, where such instrumentation is not available, provides a detailed description to facilitate construction.;The authors provide an element-by-element description of the application of each technique to environmental analysis, including sample collection and pre-treatment as well as straight analytical detail. These descriptions also cover hydride generation and derivatization techniques. There is a review of published data to help establish typical environmental concentrations of species amenable to analyses by these methods.
