Abstract:
Control of impurities in the petrochemical industry is an essential step to ensure the quality of the crude, intermediates, and finished products. Metals such as nickel, vanadium, mercury, or lead are known as catalyst poisons that can affect product quality. Many laboratories use ICP-OES due to its high tolerance to different sample types. This presentation will showcase a complete workflow for the sensitive detection of elemental impurities in typical sample types, including crude oil samples and light and heavy naphtha.
