Similar signal intensities can be obtained using Ar instead of He as the carrier gas under high-velocity of the carrier gas on the ablation site or wet plasma conditions in 193 nm ArF excimer LA-ICP-MS analysis.

The increased size of aerosol agglomerates or particles because of the reduced carrier gas velocity on the ablation site deteriorates the vaporization of aerosol particles in ICP, which induces similar elemental fractionation to laser ablation-induced fractionation.

The purpose of this study was to characterize some types of biomass wastes resulted from different activities such as: agriculture, forestry and food industry using thermogravimetric and ICP-MS analyses. Also, it was optimized an ICP-MS method for the determination of As, Cd and Pb from biomass ash samples. The ICP-MS analysis revealed that the highest concentration of metals (As, Cd, Pb) was recorded in the wood waste ash sample, also the thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the highest amount of ash was obtained for the same sample (26.82%). The biomass wastes mentioned in this study are alternative recyclable materials, reusable as pellets and briquettes. Keywords: ash, biomass, ICP-MS, minor elements, TG
