Abstract
Apparatus, systems, and methods for identifying and quantifying chemical components in a high-melting-point liquid. One such method includes: receiving, into a nebulizer assembly, a high-melting-point liquid from a molten liquid conduit; aerosolizing, using the nebulizer assembly, at least a portion of the received high-melting-point liquid; delivering, into one or more instruments, the aerosolized high-melting-point liquid from the nebulizer; and chemically analyzing, using the one or more instruments, the aerosolized high-melting-point liquid.

1-27. (canceled)
A nebulizer assembly for a molten salt flow, the nebulizer assembly comprising
- a heater;
- and
- a nebulizer, contained within the heater, and configured to aerosolize at least a portion of a high-melting-point molten salt of the molten salt flow and deliver the aerosolized high-melting-point molten salt to one or more instruments adapted to chemically analyze the aerosolized high-melting point molten salt.
