Advanced Techniques for Sample Processing of the Reusable Metal-Containing Raw Material (Review)

详细

A review of the sample processing of different types of reusable metal-containing material (catalytic agents, e-wastes, cuttings, etc.) is given in the article; the purpose of the sample processing is the further analysis in the form of solutions: dilution in the mineral acid mix, alloying with different fluxes, leaching, etc. Increase in the temperature and pressure, ultrasonic impact, and microwave radiation are applied for the purpose of sample processing intensification. Methods of sample processing with application of sorbate concentration for the further definition of not only the noble, nonferrous, and rare metals but also the toxic elements are described. The review shows that the stage of sample processing is very important for achieving the potential of the applied analytical methods.
