MAES

Comparative studies were performed to evaluate microwave digestion with conventional sample destmction procedures. These included the analysis of shellfish, meats, rocks, and sods. Generally, comparable accuracy at much shorter digestion time was found for the MAE vs the classical digestion method (39).

Elemental analysis of organie and inorganie samples requires partial or total dissolution of the sample prior to speetrometrie analysis. Mierowave-assisted extraetion (MAE) provides an alternative to traditional digestion methods and it is reeognized as one of the most effieient methods for the dissolution of soil samples.

Mae Mullin and Weber [1] introdueed the eoneept of the RTD in the analysis of ehemieal reaetors, and Danekwerts [2] developed this eoneept further in his elassieal paper, whieh has sinee formed the basis of various investigations involving flow systems in ehemieal and bioehemieal reaetors. Levenspiel [3], Levenspiel and Bisehoff [4], Himmelblau and Bisehoff [5], Wen and Fan [6], and Shinnar [7] have given extensive treatments of this subjeet.

Kwiatkowski and Lesczcynski and (2) Nowak, Adamowicz, Smets, and Maes. Within the harmonie approximation, ab initio methods yield very aeeurate frequeneies for the fundamental vibrations (normal eoor-dinate ealeulations) although in most eases the values need to be sealed (sealing faetor 0.9 to 0.98 depending on the theoretieal method used). The eomparison with the experimental speetrum suffers for the following reasons (1) most tautomerie eompounds are studied in solution while the ealeulated speetrum eorresponds to the gas phase (2) eombination, overtone, and Fermi resonanee bands are not eomputed and (3) ealeulations are mueh less aeeurate for absolute intensities than for frequeneies. This last problem ean be partially overeome by reeording the eomple-mentary Raman speetrum. Some representative publications are shown in Table V.
