Five sample-preparation techniques were compared to quantify 31 elements in coal humic substances (HS) by ICP–AES from the viewpoints of complete isolation and speciation of elements. They include, for bulk composition, preparation of an aqueous colloidal HS solution followed by direct injection of the sample without decomposition and ashing followed by metaborate fusion; for element speciation, preparation of an aqueous colloidal HS solution followed by centrifugation and direct analysis without decomposition for water-soluble species; treatment with boiling nitric acid; and microwave-assisted treatment with nitric acid at 250 °C for acid-isolated species. The results of analysis significantly depend on the selected method of sample preparation due to specific features of HS, the simultaneous presence of many inorganic components in wide concentration ranges, and a significant fraction of the organic matrix; therefore, the total mineral composition of HS, both macro- and microcomponents, requires a combination of decomposition methods.
