Duration: 1 hour

Determination of mercury in complex samples is always a challenge for the laboratory analysis. In this webinar, Lumex Instruments’ experts Georg Debus and Nikolay Ivanov discuss the advantages of atomic absorption spectroscopy with Zeeman background correction (ZAAS) for the analysis of mercury in a variety of samples. This method requires no sample preparation or mercury accumulation while an advanced thermal scanning option can provide additional information about forms of mercury and matrix.

Key learning objectives:

• Examples of determination of mercury in soil, crude oil, naphtha, wastewater, foodstuff, coal, sorbent traps, cosmetics and more
• Improved selectivity and sensitivity analysis using ZAAS
• Compliance with ASTM, ISO, and US EPA standards
• Determination of mercury species in samples
