Analysis and Separations of Trace Elements in the Environment, 2nd Edition

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Topic seeks to explore the analysis and separation of trace elements in the environment. Its focus is predominately on current analytical instrumentation, including inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), inductively coupled plasma optical emission (ICP-OES), energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF), and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). Elemental speciation will also be discussed.

This Topic aims to demonstrate that the abovementioned analytical techniques can be utilized to analyze various environmental samples, including water, soil, tree rings, aerosols, and different types of plants. Sample preparation is crucial for the successful characterization and quantification of trace elements in the environment. This Topic published eight articles in its first edition, and in its second edition, more emphasis will be placed on the application of water resources and sustainability.
