| Abstract: | Abstract The paper reviews several modalities of multicomponent analysis, namely: multilinear regression by using single or multiple standards, non-linear optimization systems by using the Gauss-Newton or the Simplex methods and factor analysis, which have been used by the authors in recent papers. These multicomponent methods have been applied to environmental samples by different analysis techniques, such as UV- visible spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, polarography-voltametry, simultaneous kinetic processes. monitoring of liquid-liquid extraction processes and HPLC (resolution of overlapped peaks). In this way, the advantages and limitations of the methodology of multicomponent analysis are shown. |
