Organically Bound Chlorine in Fuels by Combustion IC
The burning of sulfur-containing fuels leads to the emission of air-polluting sulfur oxides into the atmosphere. Furthermore, high sulfur concentrations have an adverse effect on the ease of ignition of fuels and their stability during storage. Halogen concentrations in the refinery process must also be analyzed due to the corrosion risk.
As a result, a fast and reliable method for determining the halogen and sulfur contents is required. Combustion IC enables the sulfur and halogen content in combustible solids, liquids, and gases to be determined by combining combustion digestion (pyrolysis) with subsequent ion chromatography. It can be fully automated and excels in its high sample throughput, large measuring range, and excellent precision and accuracy.
