Abstract

Continuous contaminant analysis is realistically and regularly employed by some major industries. At this date, the techniques are operated on laboratory-centered procedures but methods are being developed to produce miniaturized equipment which can be fitted to a machine or ‘plugged-in’ and used as a normal operational control.
