Using a spectrometer, the contents of various metals within the pipe material can be detected based on the spectrum emitted by the metal under high-pressure excitation.
Use a handheld spectrometer to generate spectra and analyze the composition of metal elements in steel.

About 20 years ago, such devices were manufactured in Europe and the United States, with a price of around $30,000 to $50,000 each. In less than 10 years, China has managed to develop this technology, and now these devices are common portable tools used in various industrial settings; the cheaper ones cost around ten thousand yuan, while the more expensive ones don’t exceed $100,000. And instruments have been developed for detecting various applications such as soil, cement, slag, and the recycling of used catalysts; some junk collectors even have one of these
