ABSTRACT:
A system and process are provided for determining the concentration of a first component of a mixture wherein the first component includes at least 3 materials. The process includes directing 2 beams of x-rays into the mixture and receiving portions of the beams which are transmitted through the mixture. The concentration of the first component is determined based upon the beams transmitted through the mixture.
