In situ measurements have been the basis for monitoring volcanic gas emissions for many
years and—being complemented by remote sensing techniques—still play an important role to date. Concerning
in situ techniques for sampling a dilute plume, an increase in accuracy and a reduction of detection
limits are still necessary for most gases (e.g., CO2, SO2, HCl, HF, HBr, HI). In this work, the Raschig-Tube technique
(RT) is modified and utilized for application on volcanic plumes. The theoretical and experimental
absorption properties of the RT and the Drechsel bottle (DB) setups are characterized and both are applied
simultaneously to the well-established Filter packs technique (FP) in the field (on Stromboli Island and
Mount Etna). The comparison points out that FPs are the most practical to apply but the results are errorprone
compared to RT and DB, whereas the RT results in up to 13 times higher analyte concentrations than
the DB in the same sampling time. An optimization of the analytical procedure, including sample pretreatment
and analysis by titration, Ion Chromatography, and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry,
led to a comprehensive data set covering a wide range of compounds. In particular, less abundant species
were quantified more accurately and iodine was detected for the first time in Stromboli’s plume. Simultaneously
applying Multiaxis Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (MAX-DOAS) the chemical transformation
of emitted bromide into bromine monoxide (BrO) from Stromboli and Etna was determined to 3–6% and 7%, respectively, within less than 5 min after the gas release from the active vents.
