Title: | The Influence of the Air-Drying Pretreatment of Sediment Samples for Metallic Element Mobilities | Authors: | Vasile, Gabriela Tanase, Ion Gheorghe Dinu, Cristina |
Keywords: | AAS;Air-drying sediment;Danube Delta;Metals;Mobile fraction;Wet sediment | Issue Date: | 2010 | Publisher: | Taylor & Francis Group, LLC | Abstract: | Chemical analysis of sediments provides an efficient tool for water quality management. Ten sediment samples collected in 2008 from two locations situated in the Danube Delta Biosphere were analyzed in a comparative study of mobile metallic elements via two different pre-treatment techniques: air-drying followed by sieving and wet sieving. The experimental data proved that air-drying procedure produces drastic changes in mobility of the metallic elements from the sediments which were studied as an effect of the oxidizing conditions. Wet sediment or oxygen-free dried sediment is recommended to be used in environmental studies regarding determination of mobile fractions from sediment samples. |
