ABSTRACT

This literature survey presents in a nutshell different parameters for the effectiveness of the green spectrometric procedures, which have been applied to the determination of organics, inorganics, and metal ions in different matrices. The following issues were considered: the main aspects of miniaturization, reagent replacement, reduction of wastes, and on-line recovery and detoxification, which made the analytical procedures sustainable. Also, a discussion of analytical characteristics along with spectrometric methodologies and applications is included.
