Abstract:
Petrochemical analysis requires fit-for-purpose workflows, as no single GC method can address the full range of operational demands. For process monitoring, speed and robustness are vital. Hyper-fast GC, enabled by flow-field thermal gradient technology, delivers sub-minute cycle times with sharp peaks, enabling near real-time detection of refinery upsets. Where deeper compositional knowledge is required, GC×GC provides unrivalled resolving power – supporting group-type quantification with FID or confident identification of trace components with TOF MS. This presentation highlights how hyper-fast GC and GC×GC complement one another, supported by integrated software to streamline method development and decision-making.
