Companies need to follow environmental laws as they affect their manufacturing systems, waste handling, and the management of soil on their properties to ensure that their properties are either improved or altered as little as possible. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the use of energy dispersive X‐ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF) to determine the concentrations of elements present in the soil at a manufacturer of products based on fiberglass where wastes from production activities have been deposited on the property.
