What to read after Microwave-Assisted Sample Preparation for Trace Element Determination?

Microwave-Assisted Sample Preparation for Trace Element Determination, Second Edition, describes the principles, equipment, and applications involved in sample preparation with microwaves for detecting and analyzing trace elements. Hot topics such as sample preparation for speciation, metabolomics, and halogen determination, as well as the alternatives of sample preparation for special samples (for example, carbon nanotubes, polymers, petroleum products), are also discussed. This completely updated second edition covers all the new devices and more powerful systems that have emerged in the last several years, such as Ultrawave and Ultraclave systems. New challenges in the fields of geology, environmental and biological studies -for example, the need for further determination of rare earth elements and halogens - are currently only covered in scientific journals and not in a comprehensive way. This book offers a summary of the state-of-the-art ways to meet these challenges with microwave-assisted sample preparation.

• The only book to cover in depth the principles, equipment, and applications of microwave-assisted sample preparation
• Written by experts in the field who provide a comprehensive overview of the important concepts
• Introduces the latest devices and systems used for in microwave-assisted techniques, including Ultrawave and Ultraclave systems
