Abstract

A simple and sensitive method for the determination of vanadium in sea and surface water is presented. The method is based on preconcentration of vanadium on active charcoal at a pH 3.6±0.2, followed by instrumental neutron activation analysis of the charcoal adsorbers and measurement of52V (T=3.71 m). The limit of the determination, which is set by the blank value of the charcoal, is 0.01 μg V·1−1. Data are given for Dutch sea and surface water.
