Abstract
Preliminary investigations by a batch method are described for aiming at the flow determination of free chlorine in water with novel chemiluminescence (CL) detection. The CL originates from the reaction of xanthene dyes with free chlorine, Cl2, HOCl, and OCl−. Through the measurements of CL decay curves, fundamental CL characteristics were explored from the analytical point of view. Among xanthene dyes tested, eosin Y. eosin B. pyronin B. and rhodamine 6G were found to be promising CL reagents with such sensitivity and selectivity that free chlorine can be readily determined in tap water. In particular. these CL systems have the special advantage of being insensitive to oxo acids of chlorine and chloramine. Recommended flow systems are proposed.Keywords
