Flame Emission Spectroscopy (FES) has been a widespread analytical tool for research and education. Flame Emission Spectroscopy is so named because of the use of the flame, to provide the energy of excitation to atoms introduced into the flame. Flame Emission Spectroscopy is also called Flame Photometry. Flame Emission Spectroscopy is based upon those particles that are electronically excited in the medium.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2. THEORY
- Photoelectric flame photometry, a branch of atomic
spectroscopy is used for inorganic chemical analysis for
determining the concentration of certain metal ions such
as sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium, Cesium, etc.
- In flame photometry the species (metal ions) used in
the spectrum are in the form of atoms.
- It is also called as flame atomic emission spectrometry
(FAES).
11. 1. Source of flame:
A burner that provides flame and can be
maintained in a constant form and at a
constant temperature.
12. 2. Nebuliser and mixing chamber:
Helps to transport the homogeneous solution of the
substance into the flame at a steady rate.
13. 3. Optical system (optical filter):
The optical system comprises three parts: convex mirror, lens
and filter. The convex mirror helps to transmit light emitted from
the atoms and focus the emissions to the lens.
The convex lens help to focus the light on a point called slit. The
reflections from the mirror pass through the slit and reach the
filters.
This will isolate the wavelength to be measured from that of any
other extraneous emissions. Hence it acts as interference type
color filters.
14. 4. Photo detector:
Detect the emitted light and measure the
intensity of radiation emitted by the flame.
That is, the emitted radiation is converted to an
electrical signal with the help of photo detector.
The produced electrical signals are directly
proportional to the intensity of light.
15. WORKING
The working of the flame photometer involves a
series of steps which is discussed in the following
sections.
16. Nebulisation:
The solution of the substance to be analyzed
is first aspirated into the burner, which is then
dispersed into the flame as fine spray
particles.
17. PROCESS
1. The solvent is first evaporated leaving fine divided solid particles.
2. This solid particles move towards the flame, where the gaseous
atoms and ions are produced.
3. The ions absorb the energy from the flame and excited to high
energy levels.
4. When the atoms return to the ground state radiation of the
characteristic element is emitted.
5. The intensity of emitted light is related to the concentration of the
element.
18.
19. Processes in the flame
1. Desolvation: The metal particles in the flame are dehydrated by the flame
and hence the solvent is evaporated.
2. Vapourisation: The metal particles in the sample are dehydrated. This also
led to the evaporation of the solvent.
3. Atomization: Reduction of metal ions in the solvent to metal atoms by the
flame heat.
4. Excitation: The electrostatic force of attraction between the electrons and
nucleus of the atom helps them to absorb a particular amount of energy. The
atoms then jump to the exited energy state.
5. Emission process: Since the higher energy state is unstable the atoms jump
back to the stable low energy state with the emission of energy in the form of
radiation of characteristic wavelength, which is measured by the photo
detector.
23. The comparison of emission intensities of unknown samples to
either that of standard solutions (plotting calibration curve), or
to those of an internal standard (standard addition method),
helps in the quantitative analysis of the analyte metal in the
sample solution.
24. The flame emissions of the alkali and alkaline
earth metals in terms of the emission wavelength
and the characteristic color produced by each
element is shown in table below
30. APPLICATIONS
Flame photometer has both quantitative and qualitative applications.
Flame photometer with monochromators emits radiations of characteristic
wavelengths which help to detect the presence of a particular metal in the sample.
This help to determine the availability of alkali and alkaline earth metals which are
critical for soil cultivation.
In agriculture, the fertilizer requirement of the soil is analyzed by flame test analysis
of the soil.
In clinical field, Na+ and K+ ions in body fluids, muscles and heart can be determined
by diluting the blood serum and aspiration into the flame.
Analysis of soft drinks, fruit juices and alcoholic beverages can also be analyzed by
using flame photometry.
31. ADVANTAGES
1. Simple quantitative analytical test based on the flame
analysis.
2. Inexpensive.
3. The determination of elements such as alkali and
alkaline earth metals is performed easily with most
reliable and convenient methods.
4. Quite quick, convenient, and selective and sensitive to
even parts per million (ppm) to parts per billion (ppb)
range.
32. DISADVANTAGES
1. The concentration of the metal ion in the solution cannot be
measured accurately..
2. A standard solution with known molarities is required for determining
the concentration of the ions which will corresponds to the emission
spectra.
3. It is difficult to obtain the accurate results of ions with higher
concentration.
4. The information about the molecular structure of the compound
present in the sample solution cannot be determined.
5. The elements such as carbon, hydrogen and halides cannot be
detected due to its non radiating nature.
