Increased Mercury Levels In Arctic Ice Found Pushing Into Sea Water
2014-01-16 19:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: Researchers Dr. Chris Moore and Dr. Daniel Obrist, from Nevada`s Desert Research Institute, have recently discovered an increased level of mercury in Arctic sea ice. The study, published in the journal Nature, also found that the element is contaminating sea water below. The researchers claim that the air above large cracks found in the ice of the Arctic is mixing vigorously pushing mercury down to the exposed seawater. This process causes an increase in toxic levels, which can in turn enter into...
On-Site Analyzers measure oil/grease levels in wastewater.

Suited for industrial and food processing plants, InfraCal Analyzers offers results in 10–15 min. Evaporation-based InfraCal Model HATR-T2 and InfraCal 2 ATR-SP, with respective min detectable limits of 8 and 0.3 ppm, use hexane, pentane, or Vertrel MCA for extraction process. With respective min detectable limits of 2 and 0.1 ppm, InfraCal Model CVH and InfraCal 2 Model TRANS-SP use Freon 113, perchloroethylene, or S-316 as extracting solvent. Oil concentration is measured directly in solvent. This story is related to the following:Oil-In-Water Analyzers
