Trace impurities of Cd, Cu and Pb were determined in alumina based catalysts using direct solid sampling graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (DSS-GF AAS). The analyzed catalysts are widely used in petrochemical processes. The following analytical parameters were evaluated: pyrolysis and atomization temperatures, feasibility of calibration with aqueous solutions, the necessity for palladium as chemical modifier and the sample mass introduced into the atomizer. Test samples between 0.05 and 8.5 mg were used. Palladium was investigated as chemical modifier but no improvement in analytical performance was obtained and its use was considered unnecessary for all elements. The results obtained by DSS-GF AAS were compared with those of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES) and also with conventional solution analysis by GF AAS (Sol-GF AAS). Characteristic masses were 1.4, 9 and 20 pg, for Cd, Cu and Pb, respectively. Using DSS-GF AAS the relative standard deviation was always less than 10% and the results agreed with those obtained by Sol-GF AAS and ICP OES. Calibration using aqueous solutions showed good linearity within the working range (R2 better than 0.99). Limits of detection (3σ, n = 10) for Cd, Cu and Pb using the proposed procedure were 0.2, 22, and 1.2 ng g− 1, respectively.
