Abstract

A rapid and precise method is developed for the determination of aluminium in water. The results demonstrate that the calibration range of the assay can be extended by a simple manipulation of the control program of the flow analyser. An RSD of 1.8% is achieved for injection of standards and the theoretical limit of detection is estimated at 0.33 ppm alum (equivalent to 18 ppb Al3+). The method is applied to monitoring of environmental samples.
