Abstract
Apparatus and method are provided for improving the sample aerosol yield in plasma-emission, sequential spectroscopic analysis. A reservoir is employed and an aerosol is produced therein from a limited amount of sample liquid with the assistance of an electro-mechanical oscillator system. Only that amount of aerosol which is supplied to an interconnected plasma by a carrier gas stream is used for a single analysis. Unused aerosol in the reservoir recondenses and mixed with residual sample liquid. Nearly 100% of a sample liquid may be used in this way.
