Remote identification and estimation of the calcium concentration in bulk liquid under high-pressure condition
Abstract
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) based stand-off distance analysis of the calcium concentration in bulk liquid under high-pressure condition is carried out. The influence of salinity during the determination of the Ca concentration is studied. Machine learning classifiers are used in the estimation of the unknown Ca concentration in the liquid sample, for different experimental parameters or conditions. From the spectral information, the emission lines related to Ca II at 393 and 396 nm are visualized. Chlorine emission lines are not observed due to the requirement of high ionization energies. As the salinity (NaCl) of the sample solution is increased to 2500 ppm, the signal-to-noise ratio of the LIBS signal is improved by a factor of 0.85. The Ca II emission line peak intensity decreased with increase in ambient pressure conditions and stand-off collection distances. The opposite trend is observed with an increase in the laser fluence and the CaCl2 × 2H2O concentration in the sample solution. The Ca II 393 nm emission time period is estimated at (1/e)I0 peak intensity. A typical Ca II 393 nm emission time period from 6.712 to 6.766 µs is observed. The specified value is obtained for a laser fluence of 9 J/cm2, ambient pressure of 1 atm, stand-off collection distance of 0.6 m, 2500 ppm NaCl, and 1500 ppm CaCl2 × 2H2O. It is observed that the emission time period increased with increase in the CaCl2 × 2H2O concentration in the sample solution and laser fluences. The opposite trend is observed for an increase in the ambient pressure and stand-off distances. The results obtained from the spectral and temporal measurements are in correlation with each other. The best system model's performance metrics of 100% (Accuracy = Precision = Recall = F1-Score) are obtained under the fixed experimental conditions using the k-nearest neighbor classifier.
