Heavy metal elements are the main pollutants in municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash, the online detection of heavy metals in MSWI fly ash could benefit its subsequent solidification treatment and land-filling. In this paper, laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was introduced to the rapid measurement of heavy metal elements in MSWI fly ash. Considering the serious matrix effect in MSWI fly ash, the multiple linear regression model combined with internal standard method was used to establish the calibration curves of heavy metals. Validated samples were used to evaluate the performance of quantitative analysis models. The results show that linear regression coefficients (R-2) of the calibration curves for Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn are 0.981, 0.988, 0.968, 0.978 and 0.993, respectively. The average relative error of the prediction results are from 6.8 to 20.3%. The detection limits of the heavy metal content are Cd (11.13 mu g/g), Cr (44.87 mu g/g), Cu (36.18 mu g/g), Pb (10.83 mu g/g), Zn (12.27 mu g/g), respectively, which are far below those required in the Standard for Pollution Control on the Landfill Site of Municipal Solid Waste (GB16889-2008). All results indicate the great potential of LIBS sensor for online rapid detection of heavy metals in MSWI fly ash. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
