Abstract:This review is produced from a search of the literature as performed with the DIALOG capabilities of Chemical Abstracts Service. The material covered in this particular review is a continuation of past reviews by the same authors and covers the period from September 1980 to October 1982 It is obvious that the level of activity in the publication of research results by analytical chemists and spectrographers in the steel industry is significantly reduced and directly reflects the malais that affects our industr… Show more
“…Speciation techniques based on the separation of different chromium species before detection possess the advantage of making possible the combination of selective with highly sensitive detection techniques. Although the detection limits of the combined technique can be improved by the preconcentration step, a serious drawback is the complex and timeconsuming sample pre-treatment, including solvent extraction, 11,12 coprecipitation, 13,14 electrochemical separation, 15 ion exchange [16][17][18][19] and solid-phase extraction. [20][21][22] Most methods of selective extraction are based on the extraction of Cr 6+ with chelating agents such as dithiocarbamates 23,24 or liquid ion exchangers, such as Amberlite IRA-400.…”

“…Traditional methods for the speciation of inorganic chromium are, however, relatively time-consuming, involving species separation based on solvent extraction [6,7], coprecipitation [8,9], electrochemical separation [10], ion exchange [11][12][13][14] and solid-phase extraction [15][16][17].…”
Abstract.A flow-injection analysis (FIA) system incorporating two microcolumns of TiO 2 was used for the developing of an online method for preconcentration and sequential determination of Cr 3+ and Cr 6+ species by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). The optimal conditions for both analytes have been obtained. With a sample volume of 10-50 ml and an elution volume of 500 µl, a signal was 20-100 times higher than the signal given by a continuous aspiration system. The method gave good reproducibility with precisions less than 7 % RSD for 5 replicates at the 10 ng/ml level for both Crspecies. Recoveries between 95 and 98 % were obtained for Cr 3+ and Cr 6+ . The preconcentration system and the methodology proposed were validated on several natural water samples, on reference water samples as well as on synthetic seawater. It was found that the on-line detection using ICP-AES allows sequential Cr speciation analysis at the low concentration levels (ng/l) usually encountered in these media.

“…Recently, an on-line extraction and evaporation procedure was described for liquid chromatography (3), but this system seems to be rather complex. Nowadays, cleanup and trace enrichment via precolumn techniques is widely used in water (4) and biological (5)(6)(7) analysis. Although many sample pretreatments are still done with off-line disposable columns, the on-line techniques will be favored because of the automation aspect.…”
