PIXE analysis of metals in sludge and marine sediments in the New York Bight Apex. [Analysis of Cr, Mn, Ti, V, and Zn by proton-induced x-ray emission (PIXE)]
Abstract
PIXE analysis of acid extracts of marine muds from the N.Y. Bight apex was performed to obtain metal ratios for determining whether the origin was: (a) estuarine outflow, (b) dredge spoil, (c) sewage sludge, or (d) acid waste. Consideration of the ratios: Ti/Zn, Zn/Mn, and V/Cr, for example, lead to certain conclusions which are presented.
