Analysis of Carbon Contents and Heavy Metals in Coal Samples ... Hindawi
We report a compositional analysis of four coal samples collected from different mines in Pakistan and one Chinese brand. The coal samples were pelletized in the form of a disc and irradiated with a focused laser beam of fundamental (1064 nm) and second (532 nm) harmonics of Nd:YAG laser, which produced plasma on the sample surface. The plasma emissions were recorded using a ...
