Panalytical will display its X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry and X-ray diffraction (XRD) instrumentation and software at the 104th Gulf Coast Conference, Galveston, Texas, 20-21 January 2009.
Visitors to the conference will be able to discuss the Minipal 4 Sulfur, a compact EDXRF spectrometer that delivers detection limits down to 1ppm.
Minipal 4 Sulfur is ideal for quality control and ensuring compliance with international regulations.
It supports all relevant ASTM, ISO, DIN and EPA analysis protocols.
Panalytical's Axios-Petro WDXRF spectrometer handles a range of analyses, including: determination of sulphur in all petroleum products; monitoring Fe, Na, Sb and K as process efficiency indicators; monitoring additives and stabilisers in lubricating oils; wear metal analysis in lubricants; determination of S, Ni, Cl and V levels in waste oil; and the analysis of petroleum coke.
Oil-Trace, an analytical software package, offers accurate analysis of elements important in bio-fuel production and blending (B15, B10, E85) from a wide range of matrices and with a single calibration.
Panalytical's petrochemical standard sets allow simple and accurate XRF calibration.
These NIST-traceable standard sets are available for: wear metals, lubrication oils, sulphur in diesel fuel, biodiesel, iso-octane and oil.
Each includes standards, application templates, drift monitors and a calibration verification sample.
The use of these sets can be extended with Panalytical's performance testing program, an online service that offers independent third-party inter-laboratory assessment of performance and proficiency.
Panalytical's Epsilon 5 trace element analyser offers sub-ppm analysis of medium to heavy metals.
Panalytical's CubiX Fast brings speed, reliability and reproducible results to the analysis of key compounds for quality control in high-throughput industrial applications such as catalyst screening.
