Abstract
An apparatus and method are disclosed for automatically monitoring the sodium concentration of a sodium amalgam by means of a wet chemical analysis in which a mineral acid is reacted with a sample of the sodium amalgam to generate an amount of hydrogen gas proportional to the amount of sodium in the amalgam sampled. The amount of such hydrogen gas produced is detected and displayed in units of sodium concentration. A thermal conductivity detector is preferred as the means for determining the amount of hydrogen gas produced.
