AC Analytical Controls' CNS Simdis, by PAC, combines boiling point distribution testing for hydrocarbon, nitrogen and sulphur in a single run.
Regulations around the world pressure refineries to produce low-sulphur fuels.
In addition, the nitrogen and sulphur compounds in hydrocarbons are two of the most critical catalyst contaminants affecting both refinery productivity and margins.
In order to optimise their operations, refineries need to understand the sulphur and nitrogen concentrations and their presence in the processing stream's boiling range span.
The AC CNS Simdis analyser is said to offer the market the required level of detail that empowers refineries to precisely assess raw materials, develop better modelling and optimise their processes.
With its robust design, dedicated AC Simdis software and complete range of calibration and reference material, the AC CNS Simdis analyser is a fully automated solution for unattended operation and ease-of-use.
The system complies with ASTM D2887, D6352, D7500, and the incorporated sulphur Simdis distillation principle is currently being standardised by PAC as ASTM WK24514.
