Mercury monitoring for mercury flux measurement
The Tekran 2537 has been used in numerous published studies to measure the deposition or evasion of mercury from natural or contaminated surfaces (i.e. flux measurements). It is anticipated that many mercury flux measurements will be needed in the future to assess the impact of climate change on mercury cycling in the environment. There are two basic ways to do mercury flux measurements. First, the dynamic flux chamber method utilizes a custom enclosure, with controlled air flow, to measure the inlet and outlet ...

Air pollution, emission and process monitoring systems for natural gas
Natural gas often contains mercury at concentrations that vary from below 1 to above 10000 µg/m³. Mercury is both toxic and potentially damaging: it can corrode or embrittle common gas plant components. Gas processors require safe, reliable and effective mercury removal process solutions in order to achieve requisite sales gas quality specifications and protect cryogenic equipment. Our monitoring solutions are used to detect and precisely measure mercury levels in natural gas at various locations within ...

Rapid analysis of total mercury in waste waters and process waters with elevated mercury content using direct pyrolysis technique
Introduction A conventional standard method of total mercury det ermination in water using atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) involves preliminary sample digestion that ta kes from 30 minutes to 8 hours depending on the digestion conditions. The use of a mercury analyzer RA-915M/RA-915+ with Zeeman background correction in combination with PYRO-915+ pyrolysis attachment provides direct dete rmination of mercury in process and waste waters contaminated with mercury without digesti on or any other sample ...

Mercury monitoring for on-site remediation
Fugitive emissions can be a health concern during removal and disposal of mercury-contaminated material at remediation sites. Thus, remediation projects either indoors or outdoors often require on-site, real-time mercury air monitoring with a Tekran 2537. This assures permitted levels are not exceeded during waste processing and human exposure levels are below government regulated toxicity thresholds. Often multiple sites must be monitored continuously. The Tekran 1115 Multi-Port Sampler is the ideal tool for ...

Direct mercury determination in foodstuff and mixed feed
Introduction: Direct (without any pre-treatment) atomic absorption or atomic fluorescence mercury determination in food and feed is difficult due to complex organic matrix. That is the reason why conventional AFS and AAS methods include sample digestion by acids and require compressed gases such as argon or oxygen. This makes analysis more complicated and costly and extends analysis time. Sample pre-treatment can also increase measurement errors. The use of a RA-915M/RA-915M+ mercury analyzer with a PYRO-915+ ...

Mercury monitoring for ocean cruises
Researchers at Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratory used a Tekran 2600 on a 2009 ship cruise. Due to the low levels of mercury in water, Tekran provided them with a custom 2600 Event Table to pre-concentrate mercury from multiple samples to push the detection limit lower. When planning an ocean bound cruise, instrument dependability is a paramount concern. At sea, there is no possibility to return instrumentation to the manufacturer for quick repair. The Tekran 2600 has a well deserved reputation for ...

Determination of total mercury content in blood by cvaas
INTRODUCTION Blood is one of the most complex substances for determination of the Hg content. At the same time, blood is the most important diagnostic medium used for monitoring the effect of Hg vapor on the human organism. In almost all the countries, personnel of mercury-involving production facilities are regularly examined for the Hg content in blood, which should not exceed 20–50 µg/l, whereas in the case of a person unexposed to mercury vapor the blood normally contains 1–3 µg/l of ...
