Abstract A new concentration method for palladium using Mg-W cell-electrodeposition has been developed. The method was combined with electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) with a tungsten tube atomizer. The detection limit of palladium by this method was 0.37 ng ml–1 (3 S/N). The severe interferences on the AAS signal of palladium caused by large amounts of Al, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Na, Pb and Zn were eliminated by the Mg-W cell-electrodeposition method. The method was adapted for the determination of palladium in environmental samples. The recovery of palladium spiked environmental samples was in the range of 102 to 114%.
