Abstract
A direct atomic emission method developed for measuring mercury content in powder carbon adsorbents is shown to perform the simultaneous analysis of nuisance admixtures. It provides an express control of mercury content in carbon based modified adsorbents (CMA) used for mercury removal from wastewaters. Analysis accuracy is improved due to simultaneous calculations using several analytical lines of the element, mercury content range being 0.0001
