Abstract:
Acid number, base number, hydroxyl number, mercaptan and Karl Fischer titrations are some of the fundamental refinery applications. These applications have complex chemistries and require different electrodes, reagents and titration modes. All of this can be confusing for new and even experienced analysts. To add to the confusion, these tests can be scattered throughout the laboratory. This talk will provide recommendations for improving these and other titrations with tips from electrode selection, care and maintenance to method parameter optimization. Learn how to streamline workflows by combining applications onto a single platform that can perform up to four different applications simultaneously.
