Request for Proposal

Full description

The Clean Energy Innovation (CEI) Research Center of the National Research Council
of Canada (NRC) has a requirement for the supply of an inline x-ray fluorescence
(XRF) analyzer. The system will be utilized to quantitate the elements in powdered
multi-component mixtures as a part of the Critical Battery Materials Initiative (CBMI).
The system required must accurately determine the quantity of specific elements of a
single sample and be able to integrate with an automated platform that allows for the
analysis of sample. Beyond the already planned projects involving this equipment, the
applications of this equipment are broad and can be incorporated into many NRC-
Mississauga (NRC-M) projects.
