Abstract:
Accurate water content determination in the petrochemical industry often requires optimization beyond standard Karl Fischer titration. This course explores advanced strategies for overcoming challenges posed by complex samples, including solubility, viscosity, and interfering reactions. Learn how to improve sample preparation and reagent selection to achieve precise and reliable results. Discover the role of solubility promoters, ovens, and other tools in enhancing your titration analysis. While fundamental principles will be covered, this course primarily focuses on advanced techniques essential for petrochemical analysis.
