      @@ellezag542 not having airtight fit test on your respirator. not washing hands before eating/smoking or touching your face/mouth. we have work clothes and PPE that dont ever leave the building. clothes are disposed with the lead waste. we get bloodwork done twice a year and if lead levels are over 2.8 you are out of the department and work on cleansing. ive had my levels spike but never been a scare

      How would you approach: Nano particles of Platinum and Palladium material (keyword "NANO" size) mixed in fine dirt? I have pounds and pounds of this material, but I'm unsure to what the best approach would be to refine it. I'm interested in the Fire Assay approach. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
      Thank you Sir.

    1 Peter 1:6-7
    In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith-more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire-may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

      It might be useful for industries where precision isn't necessary, but as an environmental chemistry student, who has taken fire and wet assay courses, it is important to have a precise method to determine possible pollutants in samples, especially when certain metals in low concentrations indicate a high level of pollution in a site.
      The mining industry is also interested in precise results.

    • @hankmoody4887
      @hankmoody4887 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      With XRF analysis the results may not be repeatable because a different section of the sample will be analyzed in each assay

    • @benjamingarcia4113
      @benjamingarcia4113 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe be you dont understand what you said turn to metallic so how you gonna do that maybe be fire assaying will help. you have to be accurate with all the analysis because it a lot of money involve in it.
