Precision Comparison Between HDXRF^® and ICP for Ni, Fe, and V

As petroleum professionals continue to refine their production processes, products such as crude oil can contain higher concentrations of problematic metals like nickel (Ni), iron (Fe), and vanadium (V). In the face of tightening regulations and increased demand for sweeter crudes, refiners are looking tobuy lower cost oils that contain the metals mentioned above, with the intent of assessing their concentration levels throughout the refining process.
