Why microwave sample preparation?

In the recent years microwave sample preparation has become the benchmark technology in digesting samples for AAS, AES, ICP, and ICP-MS. Advantages of this technology include:

Short digestion times. Minutes, not hours!
No loss of volatile elements. Complete recovery of mercury, arsenic, cadmium etc.
No acid fumes. Improved laboratory working conditions.
No sample contamination from the environment.
No cross contamination.
Low blanks, as minimal quantities of acids are used.
Unattended operation.
Easily reproducible and fully documented methods.

In a chemical reaction, the higher the reaction temperature, the shorter the reaction time. Used in combination with closed vessel technology, microwaves allow for fast heating of solutions far in excess of their normal boiling temperature.
