Abstract:
Due to significant cost increases in recent years, helium conservation in gas chromatography has gained attention in many labs. Lab managers and chemists need alternatives to control costs, ensure method consistency, analytical quality, and provide real-time flexibility in carrier gas choices.
This presentation discusses recent work to configure an Agilent GC with available hardware and allow carrier gas selection using the GC method. This instrument level control allows the chemist to choose a preferred carrier gas for calibration or sample runs and then select a less expensive carrier gas for idle time.
