Abstract:	An analytical method has been empirically developed for the analysis of dilute inorganio inert gas mixtures. The method is based on a combined sorption-elution technique which makes possible the resolving of complex inert gas mixtures into their constituents. Particularly the recovery of krypton from dilute gas mixtures was accomplished. Recovery efficiencies were as high as ninety-eight percent, while the average krypton purity was better than ninety-nine percent.
