Fast Determinations of Inorganic Cations in Influent and Effluent Wastewater Samples Using High-Pressure IC

Determination of anions and cations in wastewater samples are important to municipal agencies to ensure water cleanliness and public health safety. In this study, inorganic cations in influent and effluent municipal wastewater samples are separated in 3.5 min by cation-exchange chromatography using a Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ IonPac™ CS12A-5μm column. This fast separation was enabled on a high-pressure Reagent-Free Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ICS-5000+ HPIC™ system.
