Hi all,
Some long-standing members may remember that we've been trying to buy some analytical kit to replace our AAS (<"atomic absorption spectrophotometer">).
We didn't get the money for an ICP -MS, but the good news is that we've just bought an Agilent 4210 - MP AES - <"Microwave Plasma Atomic - Emission Spectroscope">.
It is installed, but not commissioned yet. Once it is up and running I'll try and run some tank water samples through it.
cheers Darrel

If any-one is interested we are still trying to purchase an ICP, at the moment we are arguing about who pays for the argon (Ar). We have an AAS, but that uses acetylene and argon is a lot safer (which is why we may get the money for the ICP).
