Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have a complex history, marked by their widespread use, benefits, and subsequent concerns leading to bans and regulations. In the 1940’s the first developments of PFAS components were made in various industrial and commercial applications due to their unique properties, including resistance to heat, water, and oil. Later in the […]

Trace Level Total Sulfur determination according to ASTM D5453 A comprehensive study on the 0.1 to 1 mg/kg range In recent developments, the need for trace level Sulfur analysis by elemental combustion analyzers is growing. The method appears to be being used more in several Hydrocarbon products such as Benzene, Toluene, or recently developed renewable […]
Introduction: Trace Elemental analyzers An elemental combustion analyzer is able to measure the amount of Total Nitrogen, and Total Sulfur by means of high-temperature combustion (approximately 1000 ˚C) in an oxygen-rich environment. In Trace Elemental combustion elements can be detected from trace level (µg/kg/ ppb level) up to 10.000 ppm/ mg/L (1%) there where the […]
In the past few years, the market has seen an increase in complex matrices in a wide spectrum of different fuels. Sulfur is a critical component and legislation push for lower sulfur concentrations in fuels, mainly to protect our environment and monitor degradation in catalytic processes. In efforts to minimize impacts on human and environmental […]
