Multielemental determination of arsenic, selenium and chromium(VI) species in water by high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

A new method for the simultaneous chromatographic separation and determination of arsenite, arsenate, mono-methylarsonic acid, dimethylarsinic acid, selenite, selenate and hexavalent chromium in water is presented. Speciation was achieved by on-line coupling of anion-exchange LC and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Optimisation of the chromatographic conditions led to baseline separation of the seven species in 14 min using gradient elution with NH4NO3 20 mM, pH 8.7-NH4NO3 60 mM, pH 8.7 as mobile phase. Detection limits are in the range 40-60 ng l(-1) for arsenic species, around 130 ng l(-1) for Cr(VI), and higher for Se(IV) and Se(VI) (1.2 and 1.4 microg l(-1) respectively). The method showed good accuracy and repeatability, and no interference of chloride on 75As, 77Se or 53Cr was observed. The developed method was applied to the analysis of several environmental surface water samples.     

Capillary electrophoretic determination of inorganic anions in the drainage and surface water samples.

Capillary electrophoresis was used for separation and quantitation of several inorganic anions in the drainage and surface water samples from the region with extensive use of fertilisers. Baseline separation of 13 small anions including nitrite and nitrate up to the concentrations of 100 mg/l was achieved in less than 5 min. The electrolyte consisted of 3 mM K2CrO4, 30 microM cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and 3 mM boric acid at pH 8. The method yielded precisions of 1.8-7.2% (RSD, n = 10) and detection limits from 4 micrograms/l (Cl-) up to 500 micrograms/l (citrate). The results of the CE method were compared to ion chromatography using water-acetonitrile (86:14) at pH 8.6 adjusted with NaOH as the mobile phase and consistent results were obtained.     

Detection of Natural Cr(VI) with Computer Screen Photo-assisted Technology

The combined use of a computer screen and a webcam has been demonstrated in several cases to provide a platform for measuring optical properties of liquid and solid samples. Here the method is utilized to measure the absorbance change in an analytical procedure aimed at determining the amount of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) in water. The method calibrated on standard solutions was tested on-field on naturally contaminated spring waters. Results show a sufficient resolution to measure Cr(VI) concentration down to 5 ppb. World Health Organization recommends a maximum concentration of 0.05 mg/l (50 ppb) for chromium (as hexavalent) in drinking waters.

Spectrophotometric Determination of Chromium(VI) with Cr(VI)-o-Cl-PF–TDPC Ternary Complex after Preconcentration on an Organic Solvent-soluble Membrane Filter

Abstract

A simple and rapid preconcentration technique, based on collecting trace hexavalent chromium on an organic soluble membrane filter is described. At pH 5.0, chromium(VI), o-chlorophenyl-fluorone (o-Cl-PF) and tetradecylpyridinium chloride (TDPC) form the ternary ion-associate chelate, which can be collected on a 0.2μm nitrocellulose membrane. The filter is dissolved in a small volume of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) acidified with 0.15 mL 3 mol/L sulfuric acid, and the absorbance of the resulting solution is measured at 545 nm wavelength against the reagent blank. The absorbance is proportional to the content of hexavalent chromium in the range of 0.1–1.8μg, in 5 mL solvent. The sensitivity of the ternary complex reaction is very high with molar absorptivity of 1.2 × 10⁵. A detection limit better than 0.3 μg/L can be achieved. The ions normally present in water do not interfere when mixed masking agents are added. The proposed method has been applied to the analysis of water samples from several sources, the recoveries of the hexavalent chromium added to the samples are quantitative, and results found are satisfactory.     

Determination of cyanide,thiocyanate, cyanate,hexavalent chromium,and metal cyanide complexes in various mixtures by ion chromatography with conductivity detection

The first aim of this study was to develop a selective, sensitive, and reliable method for direct simultaneous determination of cyanate, thiocyanate, and hexavalent chromium by ion chromatography (IC) with conductivity detection. The other target was to successfully determine cyanides by utilizing same chromatographic system. Yet, since cyanides can not be detected by the direct method, free cyanide ions were converted into cyanate with chloramine-T at alkaline pH. In addition, strongly complexed metal cyanides were converted into cyanate by using photo-oxidation following chloramine-T. Total cyanate ion obtained from developed methods were analyzed with IC. The chromatographic separations on anion exchange column were accomplished by optimized multistep gradient eluent program using NaOH as the eluent. Proposed method was applied for the simultaneous determination of cyanide and hexavalent chromium in electroplating bath solutions and in industrial wastewater. Cyanide and hexavalent chromium could be measured in the linear dynamic ranges of 0.6–961.5 and 0.9–118.5 µmol L^?1, respectively. The limit of detection and limit of quantification of cyanide were 0.18 and 0.61 µmol L^?1, and these values for chromium(VI) were 0.26 and 0.86 µmol L^?1, respectively.     

Characterization of the interactions in polymer-filler systems by inverse gas chromatography

Chromium is a primary drinking water contaminant in the USA with hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), being the most toxic form of the metal. As a required step in developing a revised state drinking water standard for chromium, the California Department of Health Services recently issued a new Public Health Goal (PHG) of 2.5 microg/l for total chromium and 0.2 microg/l for Cr(VI). Hexavalent chromium can be determined (as chromate) by ion chromatography, as described in US Evironmental Protection Agency Method 218.6; however, the method as originally published does not allow sufficient sensitivity for analysis at the California PHG level of 0.2 microg/l. Modification of the conditions described in Method 218.6, including the use of a lower eluent flow-rate, larger reaction coil, and larger injection volume, significantly increases the method sensitivity. The modified method, which uses IonPac NG1 and AS7 guard and analytical columns, an eluent of 250 mM ammonium sulfate-100 mM ammonium hydroxide operated at 1.0 ml/min, a 1000 microl injection volume, and postcolumn reaction with 2 mM diphenylcarbazide-10% methanol-0.5 M sulfuric acid (using a 750 microl reaction coil) followed by UV-Vis detection at 530 nm, permits a method detection limit for chromate of 0.02 microg/l. This results in a quantitation limit of 0.06 microg/l, which is more than sufficient for analysis at the California PHG level. Calibration is linear over the range of 0.1-10 microg/l and quantitative recoveries (>80%) are obtained for chromate spiked at 0.2 microg/l in drinking water. The modified method provides acceptable performance, in terms of chromate peak shape and recovery, in the presence of up to 1000 mg/l chloride or 2000 mg/l sulfate.     

Determination of Chromium (VI) in Airborne Particulate Matter by Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

Hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) is a well-established carcinogen associated with lung, nasal, and sinus cancer. Cr(VI) threshold limit values in workroom air have been recently lowered. Consequently, the currently available analytical methods are insufficiently sensitive or high cost. In this paper, a simple, cost-effective, sensitive, and reproducible method using solid-phase extraction with electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry for determination of hexavalent chromium in airborne samples is reported. The method validation included selectivity, linearity, accuracy, and precision. Interferences from other ions likely to be present in airborne samples, including trivalent chromium, were tested and selectivity was demonstrated. The detection and quantification limits were, respectively, as low as 0.1 and 0.4?µg?L^?1. The linearity ranged from 0.5 to 50.0?µg?L^?1, with a regression coefficients exceeding 0.998. The extraction recovery exceeded 98%. The developed method was successfully compared with a reference spectrophotometric method. The performances achieved were similar to ion chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography approaches. The novel method was tested on airborne samples collected from the workplace. The method’s performance suggests that it may be an alternative to high-cost techniques for monitoring occupational exposure to hexavalent chromium.

Chromium speciation by a surfactant-coated alumina microcolumn using electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

A simple and convenient method has been developed for the speciation of chromium(III) and chromium(VI) in aqueous solutions using a sodium dodecyl sulphate coated alumina micro-column (1.5 cm x 5 mm i.d.) and graphite furnace-atomic absorption spectrometry (GF-AAS). Under the optimized conditions (pH 0.6, adjusted with hydrochloric acid; flow rate, 1 ml min(-1)) chromium(VI) is retained on the column and chromium(III) is collected and determined by GF-AAS. Total chromium is directly determined by GF-AAS and chromium(VI) is calculated by difference. The relative standard deviations (10 replicate analyses) at the 20 mug l(-1) level for chromium(III) and chromium(VI) and at the 40 mug l(-1) level for total chromium were 1.4%, 3.6% and 1.8%, and the corresponding limits of detection (based on 3sigma) were 0.57 mug ml(-1), 0.61 mug ml(-1) and 0.35 mug l(-1) respectively. No large interference effects have been observed from other investigated species and the method has been successfully applied to a range of water samples.

Summary A method for the determination of chromium(III) and (VI) species has been studied and applied to mineral water samples. The chromium(III) was chelated with 0.1 mol/l 8-hydroxyquinoline in methyl alcohol, extracted in isobutyl methyl ketone and determined by ETA-AAS. The effects of the pH, extraction and heating time and amounts of the reagents required for the extraction were studied. A method for the determination of total chromium was optimized too, and the chromium(VI) can be calculated. The precision, sensibility, accuracy, graphite furnace program and interferences for both methods were also investigated.

Quantification of total chromium and hexavalent chromium in UHT milk by ETAAS

Procedures for the quantification of total chromium and hexavalent chromium in UHT milk samples are presented. Total chromium was determined directly in milk with the addition of a surfactant and a mixture of Pd and Mg as a chemical modifier. For the selective separation of hexavalent chromium, the sample pre-treatment consisted in precipitation of proteins and elution of the supernatant through a Chromabond NH2 column. The metal was eluted with nitric acid. Both total chromium and hexavalent chromium were evaluated by atomic absorption spectrometry with electrothermal atomization using the same instrumental conditions. The detection limits were 0.2 and 0.15 microgram l-1 for total chromium and hexavalent chromium, respectively. The linearity ranges under the optimized conditions were 0.2-20 and 0.15-50 micrograms l-1. For total chromium the precision was 4.9 and 5.7% for the analytical and the over-all procedure, respectively, and for hexavalent chromium 4.3 and 4.9%, respectively. The validation of both procedures was performed by the standard additions method and the recoveries were higher than 93% in all cases. For total chromium, a certified reference material was also used to validate the methodology. The methods were applied to the determination of total chromium and hexavalent chromium in 60 UHT milk samples.     

Hexavalent chromium recovery by liquid-liquid extraction with tributylphosphate from acidic chloride media.

A method is introduced for recuperation of chromium(VI) in water samples by liquid-liquid extraction with tributylphosphate PO(C4H9O)3 (TBP) from acidic chloride media. The optimum conditions for quantitative extraction of Cr(VI) were evaluated by varying the experimental parameters, such as the shaking period, the pH of the aqueous phase, the hydrochloric acid concentration, the hydrogen and chloride ion concentrations, the extractant concentration and the ratio of aqueous-to-organic phase. The probable extracted species of hexavalent chromium in organic phase, deduced from log-log plots, were H2CrO4 in acid media in absence of chloride and HCrO3Cl in acidic chloride media. Chromium(VI) was found to be extracted with tributylphosphate from acidic chloride media according to the following reaction: HCrO4-(aq), + 2H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + 2TBP(org) <==> [HCrO3Cl, 2TBP](org) + H2O(aq). Since the tributylphosphate (TBP) exhibited a high selectivity for chromium(VI), this method can be applicable to the extraction and the determination of chromium in both oxidation states [Cr(VI) and Cr(III)] in water samples.

Kinetic studies of chromium (VI) binding to carboxylic acid- and methyl ester-functionalized silica/water interfaces important in geochemistry

Real-time kinetic measurements of hexavalent chromium binding to fused silica surfaces functionalized with carboxylic acid and methyl ester terminal groups are performed in situ using resonantly enhanced surface second harmonic generation (SHG) at pH 7 and 300 K. These functional groups were chosen because of their high abundance in humic acids and related biopolymers. Kinetic measurements are conducted in the submonolayer regime using chromate solution concentrations ranging from 1 x 10(-6) to 2 x 10(-5) M. The adsorption rates were analyzed using the standard Langmuir model and the Frumkin-Fowler-Guggenheim model. The desorption kinetics are consistent with a first-order process. These results indicate that hexavalent chromium mobility in carboxylic acid- and ester-rich soil environments increases with decreasing chromate concentrations. Based on the measured half-lives of the adsorbed Cr(VI) species, remobilization of bound hexavalent chromium due to natural or anthropogenic events that lower the chromate concentration in the aqueous phase can occur within minutes.     

Speciation studies by capillary electrophoresis- Simultaneous determination of chromium(III) and chromium(VI)

A method for the simultaneous determination of chromium(III) and chromium(VI) by capillary electrophoresis (CE) has been developed. The chromium(III) has been chelated with 1,2-cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid (CDTA) in order to impart a negative charge and similar mobility to both the chromium(III) and the chromium(VI) species. The effects of the amount of the reagent, pH and heating time required to complete the complexation have been studied. Factors affecting the CE behaviour such as the polarity of electrodes and the pH of electrophoretic buffer have been investigated. The separated species have been monitored by direct UV measurements at 214 nm. The detection limits achieved are 10 g/l for Cr(VI) and 5 g/l for Cr(III) and linear detector response is observed up to 100 mg/l. The procedure has been applied to the determination of both chromium species in industrial electroplating samples and its accuracy was checked by comparing the results (as total chromium) with those of atomic absorption spectrometry. No interference occurred from transition metal impurities under optimized separation conditions. The method is also shown to be feasible for determining Cr(III) as well as other metal ions capable to form complexes with CDTA (like iron(III), copper(II), zinc(II) and manganese(II)) in pharmaceutical preparations of essential trace elements.     

Determination of hexavalent chromium in traditional Chinese medicines by high‐performance liquid chromatography with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

An analytical method that combined high‐performance liquid chromatography with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry has been developed for the determination of hexavalent chromium in traditional Chinese medicines. Hexavalent chromium was extracted using the alkaline solution. The parameters such as the concentration of alkaline and the extraction temperature have been optimized to minimize the interconversion between trivalent chromium and hexavalent chromium. The extracted hexavalent chromium was separated on a weak anion exchange column in isocratic mode, followed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry determination. To obtain a better chromatographic resolution and sensitivity, 75 mM NH₄NO₃ at pH 7 was selected as the mobile phase. The linearity of the proposed method was investigated in the range of 0.2–5.0 μg L^?1 (r² = 0.9999) for hexavalent chromium. The limits of detection and quantitation are 0.1 and 0.3 μg L^?1, respectively. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of hexavalent chromium in Chloriti lapis and Lumbricus with satisfactory recoveries of 95.8–112.8%.
