Determination of antimony, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, lead, selenium, silver and tellurium in environmental water samples by flameless atomic absorption. Final report

Technical Report · Wed Jan 05 00:00:00 EST 1977

OSTI ID:5180194

Analytical procedures for measuring concentrations of the title metals in environmental samples are described. Results obtained using the flameless atomic absorption procedures are compared to data obtained using the referee method as defined in the October 16, 1973, Federal Register. It is concluded that the flameless atomic absorption methods are equivalent or superior to the referee procedure for these metals.
