Abstract

This research investigates the use of 1-5diphenylthyocarbazone in the analysis of heavy metals Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, and Ni in seawater samples collected from Alas Strait Waters. The aim of this research is to find out the optimum conditions in analyzing heavy metals, such as optimum pH, extraction time, recovery percentage, and detection limit in the analysis method analyzing those heavy metals. This research is conducted in two steps, firstly, solvent extraction by using complexing agent dithizone in chloroform and secondly, measurement of metals by using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). From the results of the method investigation, it is found that the optimum conditions are as follows: (a) pH 8 for Pb, Mn, Ni, and Zn, at the meanwhile pH 4 for Cu; (b) time for extraction 5 min, (c) percentage of recovery 101 for Cu, 105 for Mn, 111 for Ni, 91 for Pb and 104 for Zn and (d) detection limits 0.0027, 0.0023, 0.0030, 0.0070 and 0.0006 ppm for Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn respectively. Results of six samples at the optimum conditions show that the concentration of Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn are (0.0253 ± 0.0038), (0.0018 ± 0.0002), (0.0018 ± 0.0002), (0.0283 ± 0.0160) and (0.0889 ± 0.0138) ppm respectively. Conclusions of this research are: (1) from the value of % recovery and detection limit, dithizone can be used properly as a complexion agent for heavy metals analysis in seawater samples, (2) results of those heavy metals analysis show that their concentrations are high enough although they are lower than allowed concentration.
