Original Abstract

The chemical laboratories of the Fire Rescue Service of the Czech Republic (hereinafter referred to as CHL FRS) encounter the issue of determining hazardous metals in wastewater or surface water several times a year. The determination of hazardous metals such as arsenic, copper, lead, zinc, chromium, nickel or cadmium can be problematic, since not all CHL FRS have available instrumentation infrastructure such as ICP­OES or ICP‑MS, for determination of trace amounts of heavy metals in samples. However, all CHL FRS have a mobile energy­dispersive X­ray fluorescence analyzer Delta X (hereinafter ED­XRF). The detection limits of ED­XRF for abovementioned elements are at a concentration level of 10 mg/l. The limits for selected elements in the surface water and wastewater are specified in Government Regulation No. 401/2015 Coll. from tenths to several mg /l If CHL FRS are to achieve these values by ED­XRF, it is necessary to use an effective preconcentration technique.
