Abstract:
Combustion Ion chromatography (CIC) is used extensively for monitoring halides and sulfur in petrochemicals. The ability to independently measure fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and sulfur in a variety of sample matrices by one analysis is unique to CIC, which allows producers and buyers to verify product quality and justify their price. Many standardized test methods (STM’s) have been published so that CIC-generated data is reliable and precise across the industry. This talk describes three such methods to analyze petroleum distillates, liquified petroleum gas (LPG), and organic solvents and includes real-world examples.
