ITs for metal analysis, I created a prototype of the concept which destroys the sample using heat, reducing any complex compounds to oxide for further analysis. Ive done it with just heat, from a combustion source, but ideally resistance heating can destroy the sample without th water generation and turbulence from the flame

whats going to be fun is getting modified carts to encapsulate the vapors completely- the samples are quite small though so perhaps 10 seconds will be enough. i have to play with the final form although its an interesting concept,

 I'm just curious about the kind of currents normally involved/ units that would work well, ive attached a screen shot of what ive bought already

to measure temperature i will use a thermal imaging setup i have along with i analysis of the sample afterwards to see how much is left behind.

Ive achieves some good results with a blowtorch and sheet metal already though- any ideas, a super capacitor / transistor perhaps to allow for more power to flow for a short time? this is an idea i've been playing with
