Sulfur in coal

Sulfur in coal is harmful to coking, gasification, combustion, storage and transportation, so sulfur is one of the common impurities in coal.The coal sulfur content standard refers to the standard used to measure the sulfur content in coal. 

Complying with coal sulfur content standards is one of the important indicators for evaluating coal quality. Its content directly affects the quality and environmental performance of coal. Therefore, controlling the standards for coal sulfur content is of great significance for protecting the environment and human health. X-ray fluorescence spectrometer provides a feasible rapid detection method for the screening and utilization of coal. It can simultaneously and rapidly detect total sulfur and other components (total sulfur, total chlorine, total phosphorus, arsenic, lead, etc.) in coal, and the sample analysis time is short. , low analysis cost.


Iron ore

Iron ore is an important raw material for steel production companies, and some components in iron ore can interfere with the production process or have a negative effect on the performance of the final product. Therefore, monitoring the chemical composition of iron ore not only plays an important role in controlling the steelmaking process, but also helps optimize the furnace charging process during steel production.

In iron ore samples, in addition to the main element Fe content, trace elements such as Si, Ti, Ca, Mg, Mn, Al, and P also have a significant impact on the steel production process and finished product quality. Process control during ore mining requires content measurement results.LANScientific’s XRF analyzer has excellent performance and can test major and trace elements in iron ore, providing analytical feedback to mining process control.

Coal ash

In the process of geological exploration, coal ash composition can provide basic technical information for ash residue, coal seams, coal mineral composition and other information.

It can also be used to preliminarily judge the melting temperature of coal ash. Based on the levels of alkaline oxidation components such as potassium, sodium and calcium in coal ash, the corrosion of the boiler when coal is burned can be roughly judged, and the degree of environmental pollution can be predicted.

At present, chemical methods and ICP methods are mainly used to detect coal ash components. These methods all require complex sample pre-processing of the sample, and different components need to be processed separately. The analysis cycle is long. Generally, it takes 2-4 days to obtain the test results, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The XRF analysis method has the advantages of wide linear range, fast analysis speed, good reproducibility, and high precision,  It can easily meet the needs of rapid ironmaking production and the needs of boiler safety prevention in the power industry.
