Elemental Analysis of Cement
EDXRF is a powerful analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of cement. It provides fast, non-destructive analysis of cement and its raw materials, clinker, and alternative fuels used at cement plants. With minimal sample preparation, you can obtain precise measurements, ensuring consistent quality and optimal performance in your cement production. Our EDXRF analyzers offer a cost-effective solution for quality control and process optimization, helping you meet industry standards like ASTM C114-24 and ISO 29581-2:2010. They are the perfect backup or supplement to your WDXRF system.

Why choose EDXRF for the elemental analysis of cement?
Benchtop solutions for cement production
Analyze a wide range of materials, from ensuring proper quality of incoming feedstocks and clinker to finished cement. Systems are also available to screen alternative fuels and ULSD to fire the kilns.
Our EDXRF benchtops can provide:
- Fast and non-destructive at-line analysis with simplified sample preparation
- Precise measurements of all major and minor elements in cement and raw materials, including low atomic number elements like sulfur in gypsum
- An affordable complement to WDXRF systems
- Compliance for ASTM C114-24 and ISO 29581-2:2010
