Hypothesis
The aim of this work was to develop a simple calibration unit for integration into a completely continuous-flow system intended for continuous monitoring of an analytical parameter in liquids.
Conclusion
The proposed flow-gradient unit for automatic calibration in continuous-flow systems is especially simple and flexible for incorporation into any flow manifold.
Supporting Evidence
- The calibration graph can be obtained using a single standard solution.
- The system allows for continuous monitoring of hydrazine in water.
- Calibration can be performed quickly and efficiently.
Takeaway
This study created a machine that can automatically calibrate itself while measuring liquids, making it easier to check the accuracy of tests without stopping the process.
Methodology
An automatic procedure for calibration in continuous-flow systems was proposed, using a flow gradient unit to deliver a concentration gradient of the standard.
