Determination of total and speciated sulfur content in petrochemical samples using a pulsed flame photometric detector.

A Comparison of Sulfur Selective Detectors for Low Level Analysis in Gaseous Streams Application

A comparison of four selective detectors for analysis of single-digit ppb level sulfur is described. A dynamic blending system is used for point of use preparation of low level gaseous mixtures of eight sulfur compounds including H 2 S, COS, CS 2 and selected mercaptans in helium, ethylene, propylene, and carbon dioxide. The criteria to consider for selecting the best detector for an applicatio...

Determination of Volatile Sulfur Compounds in Beverages Using Static Headspace and Pulsed Flame Photometric Detection

Determination of the Total Sulphur Content in Gas Oils with a Flame Photometric Detector

During a study of catalytic hydrodesulphurization of gas oils’ a method was needed not only for the determination of the distribution of sulphur compounds, but also, more importantly, for the determination of total suIphur content. Methods have been published for the determination of the distribution of sulpbur compounds in gas oils using gas chromatography (GC) with a coulometric detector’>3. ...

Application of Sulfur Nanoparticles as a Solid Phase Extraction Sorbent for the Preconcentration of Lead(II) and Palladium(II) in Environmental Samples Prior to Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry Determination

The application of sulfur nanoparticles as an efficient adsorbent for the solid-phase extraction and determination of the trace amounts of Pb and Pd ions was investigated in environmental samples using flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Effects of various parameters such as pH, flow rate of sample and eluent, type and concentration of eluent, sample volume, amount of adsorbent and interferin...

Determination of Organic Sulfur Contaminants Using Hollow Fibre-protected Liquid-phase Micro-extraction Coupled with Gas Chromatography

A simple and solvent-minimized sample preparation technique based on hollow fibre-protected liquid-phase micro-extraction has been developed for extraction of fifteen organic sulphur compounds from aqueous samples. The analysis of the extracted them was performed by gas chromatography equipped with mass spectrometry and/or flame photometric detectors. 3.3 µL of organic solvent located in the lu...
