电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱(ICP-AES)法测定再生锌中铊

铊是一种典型的危险废物,在选冶过程中,再生锌原料中的铊以氧化物或粉尘的形式排放到环境中,严重污染环境并危害人类健康。再生锌成分复杂,若样品消解不完全,直接影响测定结果的准确性。本文比较了微波消解和电热板常压消解对样品的处理效果。结果表明,微波消解法快速环保,但是对于难消解的再生锌样品,因无高氯酸的加入,其氧化性能降低,无法将样品消解完全,导致铊测定结果偏低。而采用高氯酸-硝酸-盐酸-氢氟酸构成的混合酸并于低温加盖聚四氟乙烯盖,进行电热板常压消解,能够有效地解决再生锌样品前处理难题。本实验采用四酸法消解样品,5%盐酸进行浸取,选择Tl 190.794nm为分析谱线,采用电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱（ICP-AES）法测定再生锌中铊。在仪器设定的最佳测定条件下,当Tl质量浓度为0.10μg/mL~5.00μg/mL时,与发射强度线性关系良好,线性回归方程为y = 180.77x -0.46,相关系数为0.99998。干扰实验表明,在设定的共存离子干扰上限,Pb、Zn、Cu、Fe、Ca、Bi 、Sb、Sn、As、Al、Cd、Si、Ag等对再生锌中铊的测定基本无影响。按照实验方法,对5个不同铊含量水平的再生锌样品进行11次独立测定,其测定范围为ω(Tl):0.0041%~0.21%,方法检出限为0.004μg/mL,实验相对准偏差（RSD）为2.07%~3.11%,加标回收率为97.3%~107.5%。方法简单,操作性强,能够快速准确测定再生锌中铊。

Determination of thallium in soils by flame atomic absorption spectrometry

A method is described for the determination of Tl in soils by FAAS, involving extraction of Tl from 5 g of soil by digestion with HClO₄/HNO₃ followed by separation of the extracted Tl into 5 mL of diisopropylether from HBr solution, including Ce(SO₄)₂. Tl in the organic phase is determined by direct aspiration into the spectrophotometer. The percentage relative standard deviation (% RSD) for 5 replicate samples is about 1%. The detection limits (S/N = 3) of this method are 0.001 mg/L for aqueous solution and 0.02 mg/kg DW for soil, when 50 mL of soil solution corresponding to 2.5 g soil are used. The Tl concentration even of unpolluted soils can be determined. The method was shown to be unaffected by the presence of various ions in soil and was able to recover nearly 100% Tl added to soils. The arithmetic mean (range) of 18 Japanese unpolluted surface soils was 0.33 (0.10–0.56)mgTl/kg DW.     

Flow-injection determination of ascorbic acid and cysteine simultaneously with spectrofluorometric detection.

A simple and sensitive spectrofluorometric method was developed for the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid and cysteine by a flow-injection system. This method is based on the reduction of Tl(III) with ascorbic acid or cysteine in acidic media, producing fluorescence reagent, TlCl3(2-) (lambdaex = 227 nm, lambdaem = 419 nm). The injected sample solution was divided into two separate streams. The first stream was treated with Tl(III) at pH 3.0 and then passed through a 270 cm reaction coil to the flow cell of the spectrofluorometer, where the fluorescence intensity was measured. This signal is related to ascorbic acid and cysteine concentration. The second part of the injected sample solution was treated with Tl(III) in HCl solution and then passed through a 50 cm reaction coil to the flow cell and the fluorescence intensity was measured. This signal is related only to cysteine. Thus, the ascorbic acid content was determined directly by the difference according to the calibration curve. Ascorbic acid and cysteine can be determined in the range of 1 x 10(-6) to 5.0 x 10(-5) M, at a rate of 16 samples per hour. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) were 8 x 10(-7) M for ascorbic acid and 7 x 10(-7) M for cysteine. The influence of potential interfering substances was studied. The proposed method was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of both analytes in real samples.

Determination of Mercury and Thallium in Seawater by Electrothermal Vaporization Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry

Electrothermal vaporization inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ETV‐ICP‐MS) has been applied to the determination of Hg and Tl in seawater samples. Various modifiers were tested for the best signal of these elements. After preliminary studies, 0.3% EDTA, 0.1%m/vTAC and 1% v/v HCl were added to the sample solution to work as the modifier. Since the sensitivities of Hg and Tl in various seawater matrices and aqueous standard solutions were quite different, standard addition method and isotope dilution method were used for the determination of Hg and Tl in these seawater samples. This method was applied to the determination of Hg and Tl in NASS‐4 and CASS‐3 reference seawater samples and seawater samples collected from the Kaohsiung area. Results obtained by isotope dilution method and method of standard additions agreed satisfactorily. Detection limits were in the range of 5‐15 and 0.4‐0.5 ng l^?1 for Hg and Tl in seawater, respectively, with the ETV‐ICP‐MS method. The precision between sample replicates was better than 18%) for all the determinations.     

LEAFS determination and concentration of metals in Great Lakes ecosystem

A Laser-Excited Atomic Fluorescence Spectrometric (LEAFS) method for Tl determination has been extended to investigate the direct determination (without preconcentration nor acid digestion) of total Pb, for which the method validation was successfully achieved by using a standard reference material as well as many spike recoveries of digested and undigested unfiltered water samples. The method was applied to study total and dissolved Pb in many water columns collected from different stations in Lake Ontario. Dissolved Pb was found to be about twice as much as dissolved Tl, and total Pb about seven times higher than total Tl. Seventy five percent of Pb is in particulate form versus 11% for Tl. Also, a simple cold dissolution procedure using HNO(3) and HF (not a hot acid digestion) is proposed to "liquefy" sediments in a form suitable for LEAFS analysis and was used to analyze a sediment core, where pore water samples were also collected. The interaction dynamics of Tl within the natural environment of a water/pore water/sediment system from Lake Erie was assessed. The calculations of fluxes suggest a strong similarity between Tl and Cd geochemical transport. The paper also presents for the first time a genuine sediment pore water profile of Tl concentration, which ranged from sub- to 40 ng/l and which was directly determined by LEAFS.     

Speciation Analysis of Thallium by Reversed‐phase Liquid Chromatography ‐ Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry

An inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP‐MS) was used as a liquid chromatographic detector for the speciation analysis of thallium in environmental samples. In this study, ionic thallium species, namely Tl(I) and Tl(III) were well separated by reversed‐phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP‐HPLC) with a C8‐HPLC column as the stationary phase and 1 mmol L^?1 tetrabutylammonium phosphate (TBAP), 2 mmol L^?1 diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) in 1% v/v methanol solution (pH 6) as the mobile phase. Effluent from the HPLC column was delivered to the nebulizer of the ICP‐MS for the determination of thallium. The separation was complete in less than 3 min. Detection limit was 0.002 μg L^?1 for both Tl(I) and Tl(III) compounds based on peak height. The relative standard deviation of the peak areas for five injections of a mixture containing 1 μg Tl L^?1 was better than 3.4%. The concentrations of Tl compounds were determined in standard reference materials, including NIST SRM 1643e Trace Elements in Water and NRCC NASS‐5 Open Ocean Seawater and water samples collected in Kaohsiung area, Taiwan. The HPLC‐ICP‐MS results of the reference samples agreed with the reference values. This method has also been applied to determine Tl(I) and Tl(III) compounds in custard apple (Annona squamosa) leaves collected from Chai‐shan Mountain, Kaohsiung and Taitung City, Taiwan. The thallium species were quantitatively leached from the leaves with a 5 mmol L^?1 DTPA in 100 mmol L^?1 ammonium acetate solution in an ultrasonic bath during a period of 30 min. The HPLC‐ICP‐MS result that was obtained after the analysis of leaves sample showed a satisfactory agreement with the total thallium concentration obtained by ICP‐MS analysis of completely dissolved sample.     

Preconcentration of trace elements from pure manganese and manganese compounds with activated carbon as collector

A method is described for separation of traces of Bi, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, In, Ni. Pb, Tl, and Zn from pure manganese and manganese compounds and their determination by flame a.a.s. After the metal or manganese dioxide samples have been dissolved in acid (and manganese salts in water) the trace elements are compleed with potassium xanthogenate. The solution is then filtered through a small filter paper covered with activated carbon, whereby complex compounds are separated from the matrix. When the charcoal is treated with acid, a trace concentrate is obtained which is nearly free of manganese. The detection limits for the analysis of 10-g samples of manganese metal are <0.5 p.p.m., and for 30-g samples of MnCl₂-4H₂O are ? 0.1 p.p.m. The relative standard deviation, in general,is lower than 5%.     

Solidified floating organic drop microextraction in tandem with syringe membrane miro-solid phase extraction for sequential detection of thallium (III) and thallium (I) by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry

In the present study, a novel method based on solidified floating organic drop microextraction (SFODME) combined with syringe membrane micro-solid phase extraction (SMMSPE) was proposed for the sequential separation and enrichment of Tl(III) and Tl(I) followed by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry detection. In SFODME, Tl(III) can react with 1-(2-Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol at pH 8.0 to form the complexes which can be extracted into an organic drop, while Tl(I) was remained in the solution. In SMMSPE, flexible TiO₂@SiO₂ nanofiber membrane was used as the sorbent for the enrichment of Tl(I) in the sample solution after the separation of Tl(III). This method did not require tedious pre-oxidation/pre-reduction operation and time-consuming centrifugation/filtration steps, which may cause sample contamination and analysis errors. Main parameters influencing the separation and enrichment of the target species were studied. Under the selected conditions, the detection limits for this method were 1.7 and 2.6 ng/L for Tl(III) and Tl(I) with relative standard deviations of 6.1 % and 5.2 %, respectively. This method was successfully used for the determination of the target species in environmental water samples and two certified reference materials. The determined values were in good agreement with the certified values.
