Evaluation of a two-step thermal method for separating organic and elemental carbon for radiocarbon analysis

We thoroughly characterized a system for thermal separation of organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) for subsequent radiocarbon analysis. Different organic compounds as well as ambient aerosol filter samples were introduced into an oven system and combusted to CO<sub>2</sub> in p...
