Detection of Mercury Vapor in Air by Differential Heat Dissipation Measurements
In this work, a novel approach for the detection of mercury vapor in air is presented using differential heat dissipation measurements. Therefore, the temperature difference between an amalgamated and a non-exposed gold film is recorded, while heating ...

Using Hg2+ as a Precursor to Calibrate Gaseous Elemental Mercury from Pyrolysis of Coal
Mercury is easily volatile and vaporizes in air. The monitor of mercury in gas phase provides insight for developing advanced Hg control technologies. However, the analytical method of gas mercury is rudimentary.
