REFINERY GAS ANALYZER WITH VOLATILE SULFUR SPECIATION- AN INNOVATIVE AND EFFICIENT SOLUTION

REFINERY GAS ANALYZER WITH VOLATILE SULFUR SPECIATION- AN INNOVATIVE AND EFFICIENT SOLUTION

Determining the composition of refinery gas and measurement of trace sulfur content is very crucial in Hydrocarbon Processing Industry gas chromatography applications. Trace amounts of volatile sulfurs present in gas streams can poison the catalyst used in processes, which can cost millions of dollars.

Shimadzu recently launched the highly sensitive Nexis SCD-2030 that is used in combination with the existing High-Speed Refinery Gas Analyzer for speciation and quantification of trace sulfur components. This complete system, which has four detectors operating simultaneously, is a very accurate, robust, and efficient solution complying with ASTM D7833, UOP 539, and ASTM D5504 methods.

Kindly contact us to know more about this state-of-the-art analyzer and new industry-standard SCD detector and their unique synergy that maximizes operational efficiency and minimizes total cost.
