Abstract: A system for continuously monitoring the hydrogen sulfide concentration present in the atmosphere above a waste water stream, such as a sewerage stream, and for controlling the amount and time of injecting a specified chemical into the waste water stream in order to control the quantity of hydrogen sulfide which would evaporate into the atmosphere.

Abstract: An off-column conductivity detector for ion electrophoresis measurements is formed from a first connector having a body carrying the discharge end of a separation capillary and a second connector having a body carrying a measuring electrode. The geometry of the detector, and the relative positioning of the capillary and the measuring electrode within the connectors, result in an active measuring cell of precise and minute dimensions that provides measurements of high resolution and high sensitivity rapidly and reliably, despite the provision for rapid disassembly and reassembly by the end user for purposes of cleaning, electrode substitution, and the like.

Abstract: Batch injection analysis comprises apparatus and method for injecting and transporting analytes toward a detector immersed in a confined, inert electrolyte. Passage of the analyte over the detector surface provides measurement of sample concentrations. Detectors normally comprise selective electrodes, such as biologically or chemically modified surfaces, ion-selective probes, optical or thermal devices, thus eliminating conduits, valves, and pumps.
