Multi-saline sample distillation apparatus for hydrogen isotope analyses: Design and accuracy
Afifa Afifi Hassan
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-25
A distillation apparatus for saline water samples was designed and tested. Six samples may be distilled simultaneously. The temperature was maintained at 400 C to ensure complete dehydration of the precipitating salts.
