T1 - Interlaboratory comparison on conventional 87Sr/ 86Sr isotope ratio analysis by applying MC-ICP-MS and MC-TIMS N2 - The variation of isotope ratios is increasingly used to unravel natural and technical questions. With new upcoming techniques and research topics in the last two decades, such as material provenance or food authenticity to animal and human migration studies, the number of published isotope data has strongly increased. Here, isotope reference materials are indispensable to enable a reliable method validation or even SI-traceability. The fast development and broad availability of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry instrumentation (ICP-MS) also lead to an expansion of the classical research areas and new elements are under investigation. Owing to this large expansion of the field, the production and certification of isotope reference materials for calibration and validation is lagging behind, even for classical applications such as conventional 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio analysis. To improve this situation, BAM organized an interlaboratory comparison (ILC) comprising of thirteen international laboratories for the characterisation of 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios in geochemical and industrial reference materials. Six reference materials (four cements and two rocks) were provided as powder requiring extensive sample preparation prior to isotopic measurement. Additional requirements included the use of the conventional method for obtaining 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios, also known as radiogenic 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios, and the assessment of the measurement uncertainty. The primary goal was to evaluate potential differences in the application of multicollector thermal ionization mass spectrometry (MC-TIMS) and multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS) for conventional 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio determination, with a secondary goal to provide reference values for the 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios in these potential new reference materials. All reported results are accompanied by an uncertainty statement and are traceable to the conventional method, which will be described in detail within this presentation. Current state-of-the-art statistical models were used to ensure the proper evaluation of the reported results and their associated measurement uncertainties within the frame of this ILC. Combined with results from appropriate homogeneity assessment, reference values for 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios will be assigned.

T1 - Investigating the differences in 87Sr/ 86Sr isotope ratio measurements between MC-ICP-MS and MC-TIMS in cement RMs N2 - Thirteen laboratories participated in an international interlaboratory comparison for the determination of 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios in four cement reference materials (RM) using the conventional method for 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios analyses. Sample dissolution and Sr isolation via ion exchange chromatography were required since the cement samples were distributed as powders. Analytical preparation included the use of various digestion methods including mixed mineral acids, microwave/acid, bomb/acid digestion or borate fusion, followed by Sr separation using ion exchange chromatography. In this study, we evaluated whether any statistically significant differences were attributable to instrumental differences (i.e., MC-ICP-MS and MC-TIMS), or to laboratory-specific techniques (different sample preparation techniques, Sr isolation and the procedures for correcting the data outputs). To evaluate these effects, consensus values for cement RMs and associated standard uncertainties were estimated by fitting a linear, Gaussian mixed effects model using the R function “lmer” defined in package “lme4”. No statistically significant effects (SSE) attributable to instrumental differences regardless of whether the materials are considered together or separately were evident. There were SSE attributable to differences between laboratories for three cement RMs when the individual cements were considered separately. Since consideration or disregard for such differences does not induce significant changes in the estimate of the consensus values for the 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios in cement RMs, these effects can safely be neglected when calculating the best estimates for the true values of 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios in these RMs. T2 - ICP-MS Anwender*innentreffen 2022 CY - Leoben, Austria DA - 05.09.2022 KW - Conventional isotope ratio KW - Reference material KW - Metrology KW - Traceability KW - Uncertainty PY - 2022 AN - OPUS4-55682 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Vogl, Jochen A1 - Koenig, Maren T1 - Isotope dilution mass spectrometry applied as primary method of measurement with examples from the ENVCRM project N2 - The presentation describes the application of isotope dilution mass spectrometry as a primary method of measurement with all Advantages and disadvantges.

T1 - Metrology for the recycling of Technology Critical Elements to support Europe´s circular economy agenda N2 - Technology critical elements (TCE) are key materials for high-tech products such as smartphones, notebooks and monitors. Their demand is expected to increase exponentially due to the shift towards greener economy through the deployment of renewable energy and electro mobility solutions (European Green Deal). This and the lack of TCE production within the EU, puts the market under pressure and leads to increasing prices. The need to secure TCE supply has become even more pressing under the current health crisis and it is a major objective of the Covid-19 Recovery Plan aimed at reinforcing Europe’s resilience and autonomy. A sustainable solution is effective recycling and finally a circular economy. However, the analysis of waste streams is difficult and requires suitable SI traceable analytical solutions to allow for comparability of measurement results throughout the recycling process. The required reference materials (RMs) certified for TCE in the corresponding waste or secondary raw materials and specific documentary standards for TCE to comply with ISO/IEC 17025 requirements, however, are lacking. Furthermore, waste from the so-called “urban mine” is extremely heterogeneous making the estimation of its TCE content difficult. Currently, there is a lack of knowledge at the European level about the TCE stocks and flows in the urban mine. Given the high volume of waste generated and received, fast reliable analytical methods as well as sampling and sample preparation strategies are needed to determine the economic value of the waste and of the final product and to develop and improve recycling procedures. Within this project we focus on TCEs (Co, Ga, Ge, In, Ta, Nd, Pr, Dy, Gd, La, Au, Pt, Pd, Rh), which have been selected from the list of critical elements for Europe established by the EU in 2020. The overall objective of the project is to provide the reliable and SI traceable determination of TCE in urban waste material at µg/g levels to increase the efficiency and accuracy of TCE recycling. This will be realized by developing validated SI-traceable reference methods, developing traceable and validated RMs for the TCEs, validating the use of the routine methods and RMs for real world applications and facilitating the take up of the technology and measurement infrastructure developed in the project by the measurement supply chain, standards developing organizations and end users. This presentation will give an overview of the consortium, the project structure and the planned research. First activities will be presented as well.
