Conclusion

• On-line and bench-top single element analysis in crude and water is available for Cl, S, P, Si and V at sub ppm detection limits

• Multi element bench-top analysis of critical (transition) elements can be done by HD XRF

• Multi element on-line analysis in crude and process streams available shortly – hope to share field data shortly
