CON1788 Request for Tender for the Supply, Delivery, Installation and Commissioning of a High-Resolution Research grade X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) Core Scanner for University of Galway.
University of Galway invites tenders for the Supply, Delivery, Installation and Commissioning of a High-Resolution Research grade X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) Core Scanner The Discipline of Geography, within the School of Geography, Archaeology and Irish Studies at the University of Galway is actively engaged in research relating to sedimentary archives, including lake, marine, and peat cores, which are critical for reconstructing past environmental and climatic conditions. These research activities require high-resolution, non-destructive analytical techniques to characterise elemental composition and stratigraphy. The acquisition of an XRF core scanner will significantly enhance the Discipline’s analytical capabilities, supporting existing research programmes and enabling new avenues of investigation in environmental and archaeological sciences. The XRF core scanner system is required for the non-destructive analysis of drill cores and wet sediment cores, with elemental detection spanning magnesium (Mg) to uranium (U). The system will be used for advanced research applications in geoscience, environmental science, and related disciplines. The investment in this equipment aligns with the University of Galway’s strategic priorities in sustainability, climate action, and research excellence, and will contribute to strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration within the School and across the wider research community.
