  Analysis Procedure for Elemental Analysis of Water Samples by Spectroil M Instrument
  Author(s): Mohamed A. Mahmoud*
  
  Elemental Analysis in water samples is essential to determine the water quality, the concentration of each elements varies according to water source and nature, for example, seawater considered rich with chloride and other monovalent and Divalent cations such as Sodium, Calcium, Magnesium and Potassium with traces of Boron and barium ions, with total dissolved solids range from 44,000-60,000 mg/l, while formation water (produced water) at oil field has the same ions however with higher concentration due to high Total dissolved Solids which is in range of 100,000-300,000 mg/l. on the other hand, drinking water has very low concentration from the same cations in very small concentration compared with sweater and oil field formation water. The common instrument used for elemental analysis for high and low-level concentrations up to part per billion (ppb) is ICP-OE.. Read More»
