CAN77204: Determination of Formic and Acetic Acids in Petroleum Products by Ion Chromatography

Instrument Type: IC

Organic acids in crude oil, fuel, etc., are one of the biggest concerns of the oil, oil refining, and car manufacturing industries. Because of their corrosive properties and the associated costs of corrosion, organic acids have become a topic of great industrial interest. Ion chromatography (IC) can be used for the determination of low molecular weight organic acids in aqueous or water-miscible matrices. This application note summarizes the use and evaluation of an automated IC method for the direct determination of acetate and formate in diesel, oil, and diesel/oil mixtures.

AN1105: Determination of Anions and Cations in Produced Water from Hydraulic Fracturing

Instrument Type: IC

This Application Note describes the quantification of anions and cations in produced water using a Thermo Scientific Dionex ICS-5000+ Reagent-Free High-Pressure Ion Chromatography (HPIC) system with a Thermo Scientific™ Dione IonPac CS16 capillary column and Thermo Scientific Dionex ICS-2100 Integrated Reagent-Free IC (RFIC) system with a Dionex IonPac AS18 microbore column. An ICS-6000 can be used for this application.
