International expert installs ion chromatograph in Cuba

Wesley Ramirez, Applications Specialist from Scanco, carried out the commissioning of the modern equipment in the Physicochemical Analysis of Water and Atmosphere Department of the LEA, and trained the technical staff of the center linked to this department.

This equipment allows the quantification of dissolved ions – fluoride, bromine, nitrate, phosphate, sulfate, chloride, lithium, among others – in natural, ground, surface, or drinking water, explained Leydis Aldana Moraga, CEAC specialist.

This instrument is used to support studies of eutrophication in freshwater bodies and to assess the problem of saline intrusion, he added.

During his stay at CEAC, the expert gave a lecture on the working principle of chromatography and its applications.

The ion chromatograph was purchased as part of the Integrated Management of Water, Soil and Ecosystems of the Caribbean Small Island States – IWEco.cuba project.

Scanco is a regional company that provides consultancy and analytical solutions to companies and institutions with chemical and microbiological laboratories.

The CEAC contributes to the study of processes, the assessment and resolution of environmental conflicts and the sustainable use of natural resources through the use of advanced techniques, the excellence of its analytical and academic services, and technological innovation, with a high level of professional preparation.

The Centre has recently been designated as a collaborator of the International Atomic Energy Agency for the application of nuclear and isotopic techniques in the study of coastal and marine ecosystems in the Latin American and Caribbean region.
