Determination of Ultra-Trace Mercury Vapor Levels from Industrial & Military Metal Components
For many years, scrap metal reclaimers did not
separate the materials containing mercury from
other metals. Such things as mercury switches,
dental amalgam, thermometers, and refining
wastes from copper, gold and silver were
processed along with the typical industrial
metals. The result is that a significant portion
of the Ferrous and non-Ferrous metals and
alloys used today contain some metallic
mercury.
The impact of mercury vapor toxicity has
prompted many organizations, both military
and private, to specify certain limits on the
amount of mercury that out-gasses from a metal
part. The Buck Model 400A Mercury Analyzer
interfaced with the Buck Model 4 Mercury
Enhancement Accessory can achieve levels as
low as 0.01 micro-grams/m3.
