Abstract

A new chemilumineseencc method was developed to determine absorbed sulphur dioxide in the liquid phase. With this method it was shown that interferences which arise in the photometric method of West and Gaeke are due to the inhibition of dye development and not to the fixation of sulphur dioxide as disulfitomercurate.

    Although the use of potassium permanganate in chemiluminescence reactions in acidic aqueous solution can be traced back to the early twentieth century investigations of Harvey [1] and Grinberg [2], the reagent was not exploited for analysis until Stauff and Jaeschke's determination of sulfur dioxide in 1975 [3].

    As shown in Table 4, the results showed that there were no significant differences between the nominal content values and those obtained by the proposed method. It is supposed that sulfite acts as a reductant to produce an excited molecule of sulfur dioxide, which emits radiation in the range of 450 – 600 nm [29]. The emission intensity could be sensitized with fluorescent compounds and non-fluorescence compounds [30,31].
