Analytical procedure for direct determination of La, Ce, Sm, Eu, Y, Yb, Pr, and Nd by ICP-AES in bastnasite ores without need for the initial separation or preconcentration of the rare earth elements (REEs), has been developed. Besides, rare earth elements, five major elements (Al, Ca, Ba, Fe, and Mg) were also measured. Two standard reference materials (GSP-2 and STM1 purchased from the U.S. Geological Survey) were selected to test the accuracy of the method. Good agreement was generally achieved. Based on these experiments it appeared that direct ICP-AES method should be attractive and well suited for the routine determination of REEs in rare earth ores.

Determination of metal concentrations in lichen samples by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy technique after applying different digestion procedures
Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal; Dogangun, A (2004-05-28)
Three digestion procedures have been tested on lichen samples for application in the determination of major, minor and trace elements (Al, Ca, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, Ph, V and Zn) in lichen samples collected in Aegean Region of Turkey by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES). The acid mixture of concentrated HNO3, H2O2 and HF were used. The instrument was optimized using lichen matrix considering RF power, nebulizer pressure, auxiliary flow rate and Pump rate. The acc...
Determination of SARA fractions of crude oils by NMR technique
Kök, Mustafa Verşan; Nurgaliev, Danis K. (Elsevier BV, 2019-08-01)
In this research, four different crude oils from Tatarstan oil fields with wide range of API gravities (from 16.6 to 32.5 degrees API) were used for hydrogen and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H NMR and C NMR) determinations. The hydrogen and carbon aromaticity factors were calculated by using the results of H NMR and C NMR spectroscopy results. The results show that the aromaticity factors were high for heavy crude oils. For predicting SARA fractions, the correlations were developed as a f...
Determination of potential groundwater discharge zones into a Salt Lake using remote sensing techniques and in situ measurements
Kılıç, Ecenur; Yılmaz, Koray Kamil; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi (2015-04-17)
Groundwater and surface water are integral components of the hydrologic system with strong feedback mechanisms and hence should be treated as a single resource. Existence of groundwater discharge into lakes is a very significant factor that affects both the water quantity of the lake as well as its ecological and biological diversity. The degree of interaction is more significant for shallow lakes because of their increased vulnerability due to limited volume and rapid changes in the extent and duration of ...
DETERMINATION OF PLATINUM AND PALLADIUM IN SOIL AS THEIR CHELATES WITH N,N-DIETHYL-N '-BENZOYLTHIOUREA BY RP-HPLC
Alshana, Usama; Aygün, Rüveyde Sezer (Informa UK Limited, 2011-01-01)
A reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method has been developed to separate and determine platinum and palladium in soil after formation of their chelates with N,N-diethyl-N'-benzoylthiourea (DEBT). The method developed does not require the removal of the excess chelating agent and the interfering metals (i.e., Fe and Cu), before the analysis of the two metals in soil. The physical and chemical parameters affecting separation were examined in detail. The whole analysis was compl...
Trace element and major ion composition of wet and dry depositon in Ankara Turkey
Kaya, Güven; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal (1997-12-01)
Daily, wet-only precipitation samples collected over a two year period were analyzed for SO42-, NO3-, Cl-, NH4+, H+, Ca, Mg, K, Na, Al, Cu, Cd, Cr, Zn, V and Ni. Weekly dry-deposition samples collected on petri-dishes over the same period were analyzed only for major ions. Concentrations of ions and elements in Ankara precipitation are comparable with concentrations reported in literature for other urban areas. However, the wet deposition fluxes are the lowest among literature values, owing to small annual ...
