Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer

The carbon isotope can be used to evaluate volcanism phenomenon of volcano. The study of carbon isotope of CO2 and CH4 was carried out in western Dieng Plateau by mass-spectrometer. Before analysis, sampel was separated by gas chromatography using a Porapak-Q column and a FID (Flame Ionization Detector) detector. The gas was oxidized by copper oxide at 850oC before being ionized in mass-spectrometer for isotope analysis. The CO2 content in Candradimuka crater (-4.10 O/OO), indicated that the gas may be as volcanic gas. The other CO2 from Sumber and western Gua Jimat, had isotope value  of -10.05 and -12.07 O/OO, respectively, indicating contamination from crustal and subduction material. The carbon isotope of CH4 gas from Pancasan village was -63.42 O/OO, that may be categorized as biogenic gas.   Keywords: isotope, CO2, CH4, Dieng.

Good Repeatability

In this study, a procedure of determining the 13C isotope composition ([13C]/[12C]) in soil organic carbon (SOC) using an isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS) was developed. The procedure would be a useful approach in the studies on carbon sequestration that is of great concern among environmentalists worldwide nowadays. The procedure includes: drying, crushing, sifting and removing carbonate in soil samples before the analysis on the mass spectrometer. Results showed that the developed procedure gained a good repeatability of 0.21 ‰. The accuracy of the procedure waschecked by analyzing a surrogate soil sample, a mixture of soil with known δ13CSOC and IAEA-CH-3 cellulose standard.
