On-site analysis of wetland surface-water samples by total reflection x-ray fluorescence spectrometry / P. Pelchat ... [et al.].: M41-11/18-2013E-PDF
For many geochemical studies, the very low detection limits of Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) technology are less important than the time delay and high costs associated with laboratory based analysis. Total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (TXRF), with on-site analyses at low ppb level detection limits, offers a potential compromise. To test whether this is a suitable field technology, the Geological Survey of Canada’s TGI4 Program, in conjunction with the Inorganic Geochemical Research Laboratory (IGRL), deployed a TXRF Spectrometer (Bruker AXS – S2 Picofox) and a small field laboratory to a remote field location in Saskatchewan. ...
