CHNO Combustion Services
Elemental Analysis, Inc. (EAI)
Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen are determined using a 2400 Perkin-Elmer CHN Analyzer. This analyzer uses combustion to convert the sample elements to simple gasses, i.e. CO2, H2O, & N2. Upon entering the analyzer, the sample is combusted in pure oxygen environment at temperatures in the range of 1200-1500 F. The product gasses are separated under steady state conditions, and measured as a function of thermal conductivity.
