Abstract
The prompt gamma neutron activation method has been found to be a useful technique for the on-line industrial measurements of bulk media. Based on this method, a system was developed for the on-line sulfur determination in coal. A 252Cf source is used for the production of neutrons and a high purity germanium (HPGe) detector is used for the detection of the gamma rays emitted. The system has been found to be linear over the range tested (0.5–6% in weight sulfur). Neutron-absorbing trace elements in coal such as Cl, were found to have no influence on the sulfur determination of the samples.
