Aqueous Geochemistry Laboratory

The Aqueous Geochemistry Laboratory (AGL) of Neil Sturchio is equipped for chemical characterization of natural waters and gases with an ion chromatograph, a DC plasma atomic emission spectrometer, and two gas chromatographs. It also has a range of instrumentation and apparatus for performing experimental studies of mineral-water interactions, including an autotitration system, pH meters, controlled-temperature baths, shakers, furnaces, pumps, and accessories.

The AGL also maintains a number of up-to-date computer codes for speciation-solubility calculations and reaction path modeling.
