ICP-OES is used to determine the chemical composition (major, minor and some trace elements) of water, effluent, sediment, soil, plant, rock, and ore samples. For this purpose, solid samples are first dissolved. These digestions, usually multi-acid, are carried out on heating plates or in microwave digesters.
