“…The EF of As ranged from 1.2 to 60, with an average value of 8.0 ± 8.0. Release of As bearing particles from coal combustion facilities has been well documented by many researchers (Wang et al, 1999;Okuda et al, 2008). It should also be mentioned that, lignite and fly ash samples collected from the Megalopolis power plant A, as well as bulk deposition samples collected from sites in the Megalopolis city were, among other elements, enriched in As (Papaefthymiou et al, 2007;Papaefthymiou, 2008).…”

PM 10 samples were collected in the area of Megalopolis City (Southern Greece) located in the vicinity of two lignitefired power plants during an one-year long period (April 2009-March 2010. The samples were analysed for their BC and elemental concentrations (Ca, Fe, Ti, Mn, Cu, Zn, As, K, Cr, Ni) using a smoke reflectrometer and ED-XRF, respectively. The average PM 10 concentration was 21.6 ± 10 μg/m 3 , while that of BC was 1.05 ± 0.55 μg/m 3 . The concentrations of all the elements, except that of K, were significantly higher in the warm period compared to the cold period of the year, whereas the BC results presented the opposite trend. No statistically significant differences were found between mean PM 10 mass concentrations during the warm and cold periods. Source identification was attempted by EF calculations and by Condition Probability Function analysis relating the elemental concentrations to wind directions. The results show that soil/road dust re-suspension from opencast mines and unpaved roads, emissions from vehicle exhausts and mining activities, lignite combustion in the lignite-fired power plants and biomass burning, are the main sources of PM 10 in the air over Megalopolis City.

“…A number of analytical procedures have been reported for the determination of vanadium including atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) [6,7], inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) [8,9], inductively coupled plasma-MS (ICP-MS) [10,11], GC [12,13] and LC [14 -17]. AAS suffers from low sensitivity [6], while ICP-AES and quadruple ICP-MS [10] may be subjected to matrix interferences.…”

An analytical procedure has been developed for the separation of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Fe(II), Pd(II), Th(IV), V(IV), and determination of Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and V(IV) by MEKC after chelation with bis(salicylaldehyde)tetramethylethylenediimine (H(2)SA(2)Ten). Uncoated fused silica capillary was used with an applied voltage of 30 kV with photo-diode array detection at 228 nm. SDS was added as micellar medium at pH 8.2 with sodium tetraborate buffer (0.1 M). Linear calibrations were established within 0.015-1000 microg/mL of each element with LOD within 5-67 ng/mL. The method was applied for the determination of vanadium from crude oil and ore samples in the range 0.34-2.40 and 114.2-720.7 microg/g with RSD 1.7-3.8 and 0.98-2.30% (n = 3), respectively. Fe, Ni, and Co present in crude oil and ore samples were also determined with RSD 1.3-2.8, 1.1-4.1, and 1.2-3.5% (n = 3), respectively. The results were compared with that of supplier's specifications and atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Method was evaluated by standard addition technique.

“…For this reason, a two-step digestion procedure was used in this research. In the first step, 10 mg samples were digested with 5 ml of HClO 4 + 3 ml of HNO 3 + 2 ml of HF in sealed vessels and heated in a pressure bomb at 170 • C for 5 h [14,15]. In the second step, the sample solutions after digestion were transferred into a PTFE beaker and gently heated (90 • C) on a hot plate to evaporate the residual acid.…”
