Abstract: An ultrapure water (UPW) generation and verification system can include a cleaning chemical station, a cleanup column, a conductivity verification station, and a holding reservoir, in fluid communication with one another. The cleaning chemical station can be configured to selectably permit a flow of water to pass therethrough to the cleanup column or to block the flow of water and instead deliver a cleaning chemical to the cleanup column. The conductivity verification station can be configured to selectably perform at least one of the following: permit water to flow from the cleanup column to the holding reservoir; direct fluid to waste; or test the conductivity of the water for a purity level.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic preparation of samples through evaporative sampling for subsequent analysis are described. A system embodiment includes, but is not limited to, a sample source configured to supply a sample; an evaporation container fluidically coupled with the sample source to receive the sample; a temperature control element operably coupled with the evaporation container to vaporize a liquid portion of the sample within the evaporation container, the evaporation container fluidically coupled with a gas input to receive a gas to transport vapor from the evaporation container; and a cooling system configured to receive the vapor from the evaporation container and to condense the vapor for collection.

Abstract: An autosampler system for handling liquids having nanoparticles is described. A system embodiment includes, but is not limited to, a sample arm assembly; an ultrasonic bath accessible by a sample probe of the sample arm assembly; and an ultrasonic control system operably coupled with the ultrasonic bath, the ultrasonic control system configured to manipulate an ultrasonic condition of a liquid held by the ultrasonic bath.
