ABSTRACT
Mercury in water samples was determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry after the
preconcentration of Hg(II) on a gold working electrode in a flow system coupled on-line to the AAS instrument.
The porous electrode is made of glassy carbon particles coated with gold. Tap, river, and wastewater
samples were analyzed using this method. The method enables us to determine Hg in the concentration range
of 0.05 to 60 μg·dm-3.
