ABSTRACT

Heavy metal pollution poses a significant health risk, necessitating regular environmental monitoring for public safety. Elevated nickel concentrations can disrupt ecosystems and impact human health. This study presents a nano-sorbent can be used for dispersive micro-solid phase extraction of nickel. The nano-sorbent was characterized using FT-IR, XRD, FESEM, BET, and BJH. It demonstrated remarkable efficiency due to its nanoscale properties, optimizing results in exceptional extraction performance with minimal interference from common ions. A flame atomic absorption spectrometer was utilized for all measurements. It has a low LOD (0.29 μg L-1) and RSDs% (7.3 % and 6 % intra-day and inter-day, respectively), minimal variation, and a precisely accurate correlation (0.997). It can be used on black tea, green tea, carrots, coffee beans, tuna fish, herring fish, tobacco, soil, natural water, and wastewater samples. The accuracy of the method was assessed by analyzing TMDA-64.3 fortified water and NIST 1573a tomato leaves certified reference materials.
