Trace Sulfur Analysis
Sulfurs present in natural gas and natural gas liquids are known catalyst poisons in the refining process and can cause excessive smog and SOx emissions when burned as a fuel. With increasing restrictions on the amount of allowable sulfur in fuels, a reliable, sensitive, and accurate sulfur analyzer is critical for any midstream testing lab. At Shimadzu we have combined our world class sulfur chemiluminescence detector (SCD) with our best in class GC-2030 gas chromatograph to deliver the ultimate solution for sulfur analyses in hydrocarbon and other gaseous streams.
The Nexis SCD-2030 is a next-generation sulfur chemiluminescence detection system. The dramatically enhanced sensitivity and reliability, the excellent maintainability, and the automation functions, a first for the industry, will improve laboratory productivity.
