Monitoring Soil Quality Sum Parameters | AAS | ICP-MS

Contents of the e-book

Soils, along with water and air, are the foundation of life on earth, serving as habitats and essential parts of ecosystems. They act as groundwater reservoirs, farming lands, and construction grounds. Therefore, soils are constantly monitored.

The determination of environmentally relevant parameters in soil samples is challenging from an analytical point of view due to their complex composition, requiring special sampling and preparation. Many samples need to be digested for analysis, and some components can be aggressive to instruments. Aqueous eluates of soil materials must also be analyzed.

This e-book provides solutions for soil analysis, focusing on elemental analysis using AAS and ICP-MS, and classical environmental sum parameters. It covers metal analysis in soils, PFAS analysis, trace elements, arsenic speciation, and carbon parameters, among others.

Application notes include:

  • TOC/TNb determination in agricultural soils
  • Extractable organic halogen compounds (EOX) in soils and sediments
  • Analysis of different metals in soils using flame and graphite furnace AAS
  • PFAS analysis using the sum parameter EOF
  • Determination of elements in digested soil samples and eluates (ICP-MS)
  • Determination of trace elements and arsenic speciation (ICP-MS)
