Application of sequential-injection analysis as process analyzers

Abstract

The development of sequential-injection analysis (SIA) from its mother technique flow-injection analysis (FIA) is reviewed. A short historical background is given as well as discussions on the basic principles and operational parameters governing the design of an SIA system. Single-, double-, and multizone systems are described together with more complicated systems including calibration, dilution, extraction, dialysis, titrations, separation, preconcentration, and systems incorporating mixing chambers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
