Peristaltic pumps Syringe pump
Pumps:
Operates by means of rotating bars attached to a chain drive which compresses the plastic tubes to drive the liquid forward.

FLOW INJECTION ANALYSIS (FIA)
Involves injecting a liquid sample into a carrier stream which contains all chemicals necessary of the analysis.
The stream then flows through the detector.
The stream is unsegmented by air bubbles, thus dispersion of the sample occurs by both:
CONVECTIVE TRANSPORT DIFFUSIONAL TRANSPORT
Due to solution flow
Parabolic velocity profile in direction of flow
Due to concentration gradient
Radial diffusion

CONSTANT MONITORING
Generally difficult to analyse within a process stream.
Often divert some of the steam and introduce a sampling loop.
The analysis could act as a feedback for optimising control of the process.

ROBOTICS
Used when large numbers of samples have to be routinely processed before measurement.
In this country robotics is currently mainly used in the fire assay for gold and PGM’s
