By Anodic Stripping Voltammetry?

Anodic Stripping Voltammetry is a method to demonstrate the presence of multiple metals in water. This method is usually applied to investigate the water quality of sewage, surface or drinking water.

What is anodic stripping method?

Anodic stripping voltammetry is a voltammetric method for quantitative determination of specific ionic species. The analyte of interest is electroplated on the working electrode during a deposition step, and oxidized from the electrode during the stripping step. The current is measured during the stripping step.

What information can be obtained from anodic stripping voltammetry?

The two important parameters obtained from the stripping voltammogram are peak potential (Ep), which is useful for qualitative analysis, and the peak current (ip), which is useful for quantitative analysis.
