Baeyens, W.F.J.; Decadt, G.; Dehairs, F.A.; Goeyens, L. (1982). An automated method for the assessment of mercury adsorption rates on particulate suspended matter. Oceanol. Acta 5(3): 261-264
A continuous filtration system connected to a mercury auto-analyzer has been constructed for obtaining mercury adsorption rates on particulate suspended matter. The capabilities of this device have been demonstrated by carrying out a series of experiments under controlled physicochemical parameter conditions on samples of the Scheldt estuary. Duplicate measurements showed coefficients of variation ranging from 1 to 6 %. Depending on the physico-chemical conditions, the initial adsorption rate per unit of dissolved mercury concentration varied between 1.2 and 8.1 x 10-2 mn-1.
