Description

<p>An ultra-compact elemental analyzer by liquid electrode plasma atomic emission spectrometry (LEP-AES) without Argon gas has been developed. LEP is generated at narrow channel on electrolyte filled micro flow channel by charging a high voltage. The emission produced by LEP is analyzed with a micro spectrometer. The instrument is portable and suitable for on-site analysis because it does not need Argon gas, an exhaust system, and a specified electrical power source, which are indispensable for inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). The first model is a small and light mobile instrument. The second model is a desktop instrument improved in usability and functionality. Instantaneous analysis method is provided. Sample volume, reagent volume, sample preparation time and wastewater volume are reduced. It contributes to green chemistry. LEP-AES developing process, performance, and applications are reported.</p>
