Abstract

A flow injection technique for the determination of dissolved vanadium in natural waters has been developed. The technique utilizes the vanadium-catalyzed oxidation of Bindschedler's green leuco base by bromate with tiron and tartrate as reaction activators. The reaction product is quanti fled colorimetrically. A chelator column of immobilized 8-hydroxyquinoline reduces matrix effects but can be eliminated if samples with a constant matrix are being analyzed. By using the chelator column, 1 ml of sample can be analyzed in waters.
