Sludge, treated biowaste and soil - Determination of mercury - Part 2: Cold-vapour atomic fluorescence spectrometry (CV-AFS)
Abstract
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of mercury in aqua regia or nitric acid digests of sludge, treated biowaste and soil, obtained according to EN ISO 54321 or EN 13173 using cold- vapour atomic absorption spectrometry (CV-AAS).
