A variety of field instrumentation is in wide use today by environmental engineers and consultants. Questions often arise regarding the theory of operation of various types of instruments and what is ...

The Trace 1310 is a flexible and reliable gas chromatography system, in this case equipped with Split/Splitless (SSL) inlets and Flame Ionization Detectors suitable for quantitation of most organic ...

THE sensitivity of an ordinary hydrogen flame ionization detector to hydrocarbons has been found to be two to three times higher when the detector flame ‘whistles’ or ‘sings’. Further investigation of ...

The Flame Ionization Detector (FID) used to measure hydrocarbon content in emission samples uses a hydrogen flame that produces little ionization. Hydrocarbons introduced into this flame produce large ...

A PROCEDURE has been developed for selectively increasing the responsiveness of a hydrogen flame ionization detector 1 to compounds which contain chlorine, bromine, iodine or phosphorus. The basis of ...

Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC×GC) has proven to be an extremely valuable analytical technique for the petroleum industry due to its ability to substantially increase the ...
