dc.descriptionA low-cost laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) instrument equipped with a charge-coupled device (CCD) was tested in the atmospheric environment for the quantification of K, Ca, Mg, and Mn in some organo–mineral fertilizers, mineral P fertilizers, and rock fertilizers of various compositions and origins, using flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) as the reference technique. The correlation analysis performed between each CCD pixel and the corresponding element concentration measured by FAAS allowed to choose the most appropriate K, Ca, Mg and Mn emission lines for LIBS analysis. The normalization process applied to LIBS spectra to correct physical matrix effects and small fluctuations was able to increase the linear correlation of the calibration curves between LIBS data and FAAS data by an average of 0.15 points of the R-value for all elements of interest. The R values of calibration curves were 0.97, 0.96, 0.86 and 0.84, for K, Ca, Mg and Mn, respectively. The limits of detection (LOD) were 66 mg/kg (K), 35 mg/kg (Ca), 5.4 mg/kg (Mg) and 0.8 mg/kg (Mn) when using LIBS in the quantification model. The cross-validation (leave-one-out) analysis yielded an absolute average error of 12% (K), 21% (Ca), 8% (Mg) and 13% (Mn) when LIBS data were correlated to FAAS ones. These results showed that the calibration models used were close to the optimization limit and satisfactory for K, Ca, Mg, and Mn quantification in the fertilizers and rocks examined.
