Experimental methods in chemical engineering: Atomic absorption spectrometry—AAS
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page 2206-2224, May 2026.Abstract Elements absorb electromagnetic radiation (light) of a specific wavelength in proportion to the number of atoms in its path. As the atoms absorb this light energy, electrons rise from the ground state to an excited state. In atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), high temperatures produce clouds of atoms from the sample (atomization) and ...
