Water analysis via portable X-ray fluorescence spectrometry [PDF]
Journal of Hydrology, 2017 Abstract Rapid, in-situ elemental water analysis would be an invaluable tool in studying polluted and/or salt-impacted waters. Analysis of water salinity has commonly used electrical conductance (EC); however, the identity of the elements responsible for the salinity are not revealed using EC.

Efficiency of Portable X-ray Fluorescence for Distinguishing Lead Slag
Applied Spectroscopy, 2023 In the Minier Valley (France, Aveyron), an archaeological site excavation has led to the discovery of 25 kg of lead (Pb) slag, found in a secondary position. On a macroscopic level, these slags can be classified into two distinct categories, vitreous black and porous gray.

Direct Soil Gypsum Quantification via Portable X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry [PDF]
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2013 7 Pags., 6 Figs., 4 Tabls. Soil scientists have long struggled with an effective method for quantifying gypsum content in soils. Several methods exist, but each is fraught with problems. Recent enhancements to portable X-ray fluorescence (PXRF) spectrometers have provided better detection limits especially for lighter elements such as S, a key ...
