Evaluation of Microwave Plasma Torch in Determination of Mercury by AES

The microwave plasma torch (MPT) is evaluated in this paper as an excitation source for the determination of mercury by AES. The sample solution was introduced by using an ultrasonic nebulizer and a desolvation system with a water-cooling condenser and a concentrated surfuric acid desiccator. The experimental conditions and some factors such as microwave forward power, carrier gas flow rate, support gas flow rate, etc. , which influence emission intensity of mercury, have been optimized and discussed. It was shown that MPT discharge possesses high tolerance to the introduction of water sample and coexisting chemical species. The detection limit for mercury achieved by MPT-AES is comparable to or better than those reported by other methods. The method was used to analyse practical sample and a satisfactory result has been achieved.
