Abstract:
Organic chlorides can have adverse effects on production processes, catalyst viability and final product quality in the petrochemical industry. The measurement of organic chlorides is of utmost importance even at the lowest possible levels. A comparison of analytical techniques represented by ASTM D5808 (organic chlorides by combustion microcoulometry) and ASTM D8247 (organic chlorides by combustion Ion Chromatography) will be the topic of this discussion. The reliability and accuracy of both methods will be compared on samples such as pyrolysis oil. Studies such as these help to provide further insight into techniques while possibly providing impetus to explore expansion, evolution or improvement.
