AEON
Management Inc. can provide fast, accurate and economical
ON SITE simultaneous measurements of 15 elements including
arsenic in soils with the Niton field analyzer. The
Niton Analyzer uses x-ray fluorescence and can automatically
correct for cross-element interference including lead/arsenic
overlap. The unit also corrects for substrate bias and age
of source. For both in situ and ex situ testing, site-specific
calibrations are never required. Sophisticated software corrects
automatically for variations in soil-sample chemistry and density.
Data from the unit can be downloaded to a computer using the software
interface provided with the analyzer. Downloaded data can be converted
into other formats including Excel spreadsheets for use in reporting.
