The development and characterization of miniature spectrometers for measuring the redox status of environmental samples

Creator:: Cantrell, Kevin
Abstract:: A spectrometer, here denoted a Simple, Low-power, Inexpensive. Microcontroller-based or SLIM spectrometer. was developed that exploits the small size and low cost of solid-state electronic devices. This approach results in customizable spectrometers that are considerably less expensive and smaller than traditional instrumentation. The performance of the SLIM spectrometer was evaluated...

Design, construction and application of an instrument for simultaneous measurement of molecular fluorescence, absorbance and chemiluminescence

Creator:: Yappert, Marta Cecilia
Abstract:: An instrument was constructed to measure molecular fluorescence (FL) or chemiluminescence (CL) and absorbance (ABS) simultaneously. The lower, middle, and upper portions of the test solution are probed to obtain ABS, FL, and CL data. Optical fibers are used extensively. The ABS and FL or CL spectra are acquired in...

Monitoring redox conditions with redox indicators during microbial reductive dechlorination in microcosms and bioaugmented columns

Creator:: Ruiz-Haas, Peter A.
Abstract:: New methods, sensors, and devices based on redox indicators were developed to monitor redox conditions in anoxic and anaerobic laboratory systems and the subsurface environment. The primary application was monitoring redox conditions during the dechlorination of tetrachioroethene (PCE) to ethene (ETH) in packed columns and microcosm bottles containing an enriched...

Development and evaluation of sampling techniques, instrumentation, and pyridine derivative reagents for fluorometric determination of chloroform and TCE in water with a portable fluorometer

Creator:: Prayoonpokarach, Sanchai
Abstract:: A novel, portable, filter fluorometer was developed for the determination of chloroform and TCE at environmentally-relevant levels when coupled with improved sampling techniques and reagents. Reagents selective for the TCE or chloroform convert these toxic species into fluorescent species that can be monitored. The fluorometer is based on LED excitation...

Fiber optic sensors and spectrometry for the detection of volatile gem-polyhalogenated hydrocarbons

Creator:: Louch, Jeff
Abstract:: A fiber optic fluorometer utilizing a double-fiber optic probe was constructed. The absolute fluorescence signal and effective collection efficiency are approximately one fifth those of typical cuvette fluorometers and agree with those predicted by theory. A quinine sulfate calibration curve shows linearity from a detection limit of 10 pg/mL to...

Design and application of a microcomputer automated multielement flame atomic fluorescence instrument

Creator:: Neyzari, Shahrokh Ghaffari
Abstract:: An automated multielement flame atomic fluorescence (AF) spectrometer based on microcomputer control was constructed to determine four elements simultaneously. The instrument employs a multiple exit slit monochromator where the light from various exit slits is directed to a single detector with a mirrored funnel. Each element is excited to fluoresce...

Microcomputer controlled chemical and radiochemical separations and analysis

Creator:: Bennett, Casey Wayne
Abstract:: An automated radiochemical flow analysis (ARFA) system was developed which integrates chemical and radiochemical techniques into one system through the use of a microcomputer. The operator, through the microcomputer, controls valves and pumps to transfer sample and reagent solutions to counting loops, ion exchange columns and holdup reservoirs. A Ge(Li)...
