Carbon And Sulphur Analysis

Carbon Analysis

LabWest has developed a dedicated carbon analysis section. Forms of carbon (total, organic, carbonate, and graphitic) can be determined by sequential analysis, using combustion/infrared analysers .

Total Carbon is determined by direct analysis of the pulverised sample.

Carbonate carbon is removed by acidification, and remaining forms determined by CS analyser.

Organic carbon is removed by low-temperature furnace oxidation, and remaining forms determined by CS analyser.

The various forms are calculated by difference.
