Efficient Ignition Results in Shorter Combustion Times - TN/TS
The presence of Nitrogen and/or Sulfur in petroleum products can cause catalyst poisoning. It has been determined that if there is even a trace amount of either of these elements; the refining process can be inhibited. Reducing the sulfur content is vital for the protection of platinum catalysts in naphtha reforming operations. Residual sulfur in fuel oils will influence emissions of sulfur dioxide resulting in plant corrosion and atmospheric pollution if the re-sidual level is too high. Trace sulfur is determined through combustion and Ultra Violet (UV) Fluorescence. Nitrogen is detected using chemiluminescence.
Our Impact
EST Analytical has been helping labs achieve their analytical goals for over 30 years. Our vision is to engineer reliable laboratory instruments that enable partners to make the world a better place.
To help labs excel we offer Application Notes across our entire product line. They are a resource that explains the technology, performance, and abilities of our products as used against certain methodologies and or applications.
Whether your needs center around a USEPA method, an ASTM Standard, or a sample matrix-based outcome EST has you covered. If you don’t see the technical direction you need, simply contact us. We also offer sample analysis in our onsite Applications Lab.
