  • Descrição: A simple method for mercury determination in petroleum fractions ( naphtha) using electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) associated with multiple injection technique for direct preconcentration in the graphite tube has been developed. Oil-in-water micro-emulsions (three-component solutions) were prepared using a mixture of sample, propan-1-ol and HNO. No additional sample pretreatment was required. In the procedure, three successive 30 [small mu]L micro-emulsion aliquots are delivered to the graphite tube. The pyrolysis and atomization temperatures were set to 400 [degree]C and 1400 [degree]C, respectively. The calibration curves showed a linear response up to analyte concentrations of 150 [small mu]g L with a correlation coefficient of 0.993. The precision calculated from fifteen consecutive measurements and defined as the coefficient of variation of solutions containing 5.0 and 30 [small mu]g L of Hg were 6.4% and 4.7%, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD), defined as the Hg concentration that gives a response equivalent to three times the standard deviation () of the blank ( = 10), was found to be 0.78 [small mu]g L. The proposed procedure was used for mercury determination in naphtha feeds processed in Braskem S.A. (Salvador, Bahia, Brazil).
