Determination of Chlorine and Sulfur in Wood Chips Using Combustion Ion Chromatography

Instrument Type: IC

Wood chips are used for producing paper and are also contained in waste deposits. It is important to know the halogen contents of wood chips for impurity management in paper production and for environmental assessment in waste materials. By using a combustion ion chromatography (CIC) system consisting of the automatic quick furnace AQF-2100H and an ICS-1600 ion chromatograph, the concentrations of halogens and sulfur can be determined accurately and quickly.

Determination of Halogens and Sulfur in Refuse Derived Fuel by Combustion Ion Chromatography

Instrument Type: IC

Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) is a fuel produced by shredding and dehydrating solid waste deriving largely from municipal waste. Because RDF is used as fuel for power plants and boilers, it is important to know the halogen and sulfur content as an indication of the potential for formation of corrosives or environmental contaminants. By using a combustion ion chromatography (CIC) system consisting of the automatic quick furnace AQF-2100H and an ICS-1600 ion chromatograph, the concentrations of halogens and sulfur can be determined accurately and quickly.
