Characterization of waste and soil - Determination of elemental composition by X-ray fluorescence

This European Standard specifies the procedure for a quantitative determination of major and trace element concentrations in homogeneous solid waste, soil and soil-like material by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry or wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) spectrometry using a calibration with matrix-matched standards.
This European Standard is applicable for the following elements: Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ag, Cd, Sn, Sb, Te, I, Cs, Ba, Ta, W, Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Th and U. Concentration levels between approximately 0,000 1 % and 100 % can be determined depending on the element and the instrument used.

Caractérisation des déchets et du sol - Détermination de la composition élémentaire par fluorescence X

La présente norme européenne décrit le mode opératoire de détermination quantitative des concentrations en éléments majeurs et en éléments traces dans les sols, les matériaux de type sol et les déchets solides homogènes à l’aide de spectromètres de fluorescence X à dispersion d’énergie (EDXRF) ou de spectromètres de fluorescence X à dispersion de longueur d’onde (WDXRF), en utilisant un étalonnage réalisé avec des matériaux de référence adaptés à la matrice.
La présente norme européenne est applicable aux éléments suivants : Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ag, Cd, Sn, Sb, Te, I, Cs, Ba, Ta, W, Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Th et U. Il est possible de déterminer des niveaux de concentration compris entre 0,0001 % et 100 % selon l’élément dosé et l’instrument utilisé.
