Contract Analysis Services
Contract Analysis and Special Projects: In house analysis of client’s samples is undertaken on a regular basis. The laboratory at PSA is equipped to carry out elemental determination and speciation utilizing the following techniques.
Hydride Generation - AFS
Arsenic, Selenium, Antimony, Bismuth and Tellurium in a wide range of sample types.
Cold Vapour - AFS
Mercury in a wide range of samples. It can be used with amalgamation to provide lower detection limits. Selective extractions can be used to provide Hg fractionation measurements in hydrocarbon or soil samples.
Amalgamation - AFS
Mercury in gas samples such as ambient and workroom air, stack gas and hydrocarbon gases.
Volatilization - AFS
Mercury in Petrochemical Samples and also to validate the efficiency of the mercury removal devices.
Thermo-gram/pyrolysis - AFS
Direct mercury speciation/fractionation of solid samples
HPLC - Cold Vapour - AFS
Organic and inorganic forms mercury in a wide range of samples
HPLC - Hydride Generation - AFS
Organic and Inorganic forms of Arsenic, Selenium, Antimony, Bismuth and Tellurium in a wide range of sample types
GC-AFS
Organic mercury determination in a wide range of sample types
Hg Fractionation
Determination of elemental, ionic, particulate and organic mercury in liquid hydrocarbons
