Abstract

Quantitative instrumental analysis of chemical pollutant species in water requires a complex laboratory logistics, difficult or impossible to travel on land. Concerns of research team have focused on design and implementation of simple and reliable field equipment to enable handling, dosing and quick analysis of water samples. All structures are portable and modular designed to work both with turbid water samples as well as clear water, also this equipment can work in the photometric analysis regime with Kit’s, in spectrometric regime by scanning UV/VIS/NIR spectrofluorometric regime or combined, using besides these schemes for analysis in the same time analysis of the water conductivity. Achieved unitary concept, high flexibility, a large number of possible analysis in short time and original solutions incorporated, makes designed equipment from which some of them already made an outstanding technical means for water analysis and monitoring of performance both as primary natural resources and treated water resources. All means of instrumental analysis are interfaced with portable computers that allow an over ordering processing data, storing it and as appropriate their forward by GSM or satellite.
