Abstract

Several advanced ion-exclusion chromatographic (IEC) methods for the determination of anions (sulfate, nitrate, and chloride ions), cations (sodium, ammonium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium ions), HCO3, PO43−, and H3SiO4 were studied. The goal was to evaluate the environmental water quality of several locations using polymethacrylate-based ion-exchange resin columns and different types of eluents. Separation science was studied regarding a multifunctional separation mechanism based on ion-exclusion, cation-exchange, adsorption, simultaneous ion-exclusion/cation-exchange, and vacant ion-exclusion using IEC methods. They were applied to weakly acidic cation-exchange resin and weakly basic anion-exchange resin columns. Anions, cations, amines, carboxylic acids, and non-ionic substances are considered to be important for evaluating water quality. As a result, a high-speed simultaneous determination of anions and cations was achieved in a 5 min. when applying IEC with conductivity detection on a weakly acidic cation-exchange resin column by elution with tartaric acid-18-crown-6-water. Selective and highly sensitive IEC determination of HCO3 from strong acid anions was achieved when using a water eluent and enhanced conductivity detection. A selective, highly sensitive, and simultaneous determination of PO43− and H3SiO4 was achieved when using the water eluent and UV-detection at 370 nm. A highly sensitive and selective determination of ammonium ion from mono- and divalent cations was achieved when using IEC with the enhanced conductivity detection on a weakly basic anion-exchange resin column by elution with water. The effectiveness for these IEC methods was demonstrated in the applications to an environmental water quality monitoring of rain, river, and sea water. A performance evaluation was also conducted for a photocatalyst, such as titania to some organic, inorganic, and non-ionic substances.<br>
