Building Materials Streamline Your Analysis with Fewer, Less Complex Devices
Reliable Analysis of Building Materials
To guarantee the highest quality, the chemical composition of materials like cement must be monitored – from feedstocks to recycling. We streamline your analysis along the entire value chain with fewer and easier-to-use devices. Analyze construction materials and solid recovered fuels (SRF) with one device, determining C, S, Cl, and more. Use robust techniques such as AAS and ICP-OES for metal analysis – even at trace levels.
Analyze with us
- C/S in minerals and burnt lime
- Cl in solid derived fuels
- Sulfide and sulfate in clinker and cement
- TOC/TIC/EC in limestone, gypsum, slag, fly ash, and cement
- Additional elements of interest (e.g., Ca, Fe, Mg, Na, K, Al, Ti) in building materials
Technologies
- Combustion elemental analysis (CNSX)
- Elemental analysis (AAS, ICP-OES, ICP-MS
Highlights
- C, S, Cl, and speciation analysis in one device - for building materials and solid recovered fuels
- Robust techniques for trace metal analysis
Precision Cement Analysis from Start to Finish
Cement’s strength and durability depend on its chemical composition. To ensure top quality, it must be closely monitored throughout production — from clay and limestone to raw meal, clinker, and final product.
Our multi EA 4000 combustion analyzer helps you determine key parameters like TS, TC, TOC, TIC, and chlorine in both cement and fuels used in kilns. This prevents corrosion and limits emissions of HX and SO₂. For metal elements like Ca, Al, Fe, Si, we offer atomic absorption spectrometry to assess cement type and quality. We support you making your cement analysis quicker, more efficient and profitable along the complete value chain.
Analysis of Cement and Other Building Materials
Our e-book offers an overview of methods and solutions for cement analysis - including analysis of carbon, sulfur, halogens, and metals. You will also find applications dealing with carbon capturing and monitoring solid derived fuels used to heat cement kilns.
