Modifications to an H₂S Tape Sampler for Increasing Sensitivity and Accuracy in H₂S Sampling

Abstract

The tape samplers using lead acetate impregnated paper tapes for continuous hydrogen sulfide sampling are subject to a number of errors which can throw considerable doubt on the accuracy of H₂S concentrations being measured. Some of the errors have been minimized with a change in the humidification system and a reduction of the lamp intensity in the optical system.
