Microwave-Induced Combustion Digestion of Petroleum Coke Samples
Researchers at Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (Santa Maria, Brazil) and Centro de Pesquisas e Desenvolvimento Leopold Americo Miguez de Mello-CENPES/PETROBAS (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) analyzed chloride in petroleum coke samples using microwave-induced combustion followed by ion chromatography.
Researchers at Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (Santa Maria, Brazil) and Centro de Pesquisas e Desenvolvimento Leopold Americo Miguez de Mello-CENPES/PETROBAS (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) analyzed chloride in petroleum coke samples using microwave-induced combustion followed by ion chromatography. The digestion took place in closed vessels with samples pressed as pellets and placed on a quartz holder. The researchers used an oxygen pressure of 2 Mpa and a 50-µL volume of 6 M ammonium nitrate as an ignition aid for combustion.
Gulf Coast Conference: Increasing Density and Viscosity Throughput with Difficult Samples
October 19th 2023Daniel Wolbrecht, senior technical sales consultant at Anton Paar, held a workshop at the Gulf Coast Conference in Galveston, Texas, focusing on how heated autosampler units can help analyze difficult samples.
