This presentation discusses different types of nebulizers used in instrumental analysis. There are two main types of nebulizers: pneumatic nebulizers and ultrasonic nebulizers. Pneumatic nebulizers use a high pressure gas stream to break up liquid samples into a fine mist or aerosol. There are four types of pneumatic nebulizers: concentric tube, cross flow, fritted disk, and Babington. Ultrasonic nebulizers use ultrasonic sound waves to break liquid particles down into a fine mist. The presentation provides details on the working mechanisms of each type of pneumatic nebulizer and ultrasonic nebulizers.
