AN260: Monitoring Inorganic Anions and Cations During Desalination (Part B: Cations)

Instrument Type: IC

This work describes an IC method to simultaneously measure the common anions and cations in water samples obtained from desalination processes. This record shows the method for cation analysis. The method was shown to be accurate by the good recovery of cations in a wide variety of samples including natural and artificial seawater and drinking water. The methods for cations and anions are robust for all ion-monitoring needs of a typical desalination facility and support a varying range of matrices from seawater to drinking water.
