Analyses of metals in lyes

 
   
 

MF-6 Metals in slime, lime, green lye sludge and electrical filter particles

Loss on Ignition (1000°C) Sum of oxides
SiO2 (0.08) Al2O3 (0.03) CaO (0.08) Fe2O3 (0.005)
K2O (0.05) MgO (0.02) MnO2 (0.003) Na2O (0.04)
P2O5 (0.002) TiO2 (0.002)    
As (0.1) Ba (2) Be (0.05) Cd (0.01)
Co (0.01) Cr (10) Cu (0.1) Hg (0.04)
La (5) Mo (5) Nb (5) Ni (0.08)
Pb (0.1) S (16) Sc (1) Sn (20)
Sr (2) V (2) W (50) Y(2)
Zn (1) Zr (2)    
Figures in brackets denote limits of quantification in mg/kg dry weight (elements) and % dry weight (oxides). Minimum sample amount: 5 g dry matter. Sample preparation may be required. Method: ICP-AES/ICP-QMS.
 
Digestion: Samples are dried at 50°C after which As, Cd, Co, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, S and Zn are digested with nitric acid in sealed teflon containers in a microwave system and determined. Other elements are determined after fusion with lithium metaborate and dissolution of the fusion residue in dilute nitric acid.
