X-ray fluorescence measuring system and metods for trace elements

摘要

An X-ray fluorescence measuring system and related measuring methods are disclosed, the system using X-ray energy at a level of less than 80 KeV may be directed toward a material, such as coal. The energy fluoresced may be detected (10) and used to measure the elemental composition of the material, including trace elements. The material may be moving or stationary.
