Losses of arsenic during the low temperature ashing of atmospheric particulate samples

  • 1. Univ. of Rhode Island, Kingston

Description

Neutron activation and atomic absorption procedures have been used to study arsenic losses during low temperature ashing at power levels between 50 and 125 watts (RF). Losses of arsenic from ambient atmospheric particulate matter and various synthetic sea salt matrices containing known quantities of arsenic was observed. In general, the magnitude of arsenic losses by this treatment will depend on applied power levels and the physical and chemical properties of the arsenic sample matrix
