Micro XRF analysis of industrial waste

Professor M. A. Castro (Instituto de Ciencia de los Materiales de Sevilla, CSIC-Universidad de Sevilla, Spain) and his colleagues are proposing to employ micro X-ray fluorescence as a feasible and efficient solution to classify waste and also to survey the problems in the production process.
