KJELDAHL DIGESTER - MBC SERIES-6

Compact block digestion system POPULAR COMPATIBLE METHODS KJELDAHL METHOD The Kjeldahl digestion process entails the breakdown of nitrogen in organic samples. This is achieved by heating the sample in a concentrated acid solution, facilitated by a catalyst. At the end of the reaction, ammonium sulphate solution is formed, which can be later distilled and quantified. CHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND The Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is the amount of oxygen consumed to totally oxidize organic material into inorganic nutrients. Organic N + H2SO4 (NH4)2SO4 + H2O + CO2 + other byproducts of the sample matrix....

VACUUM PUMP After loading the samples with the corresponding reagents within the samples tubes rack, the sample tubes rack is placed inside the heating block and the fumes collector is placed on top of the sample tubes rack. The next step is choosing the appropiate program and the equipment starts to heat up, following the predefined temperature and time segments. In the process, the generated exhaust fumes are captured by the fumes collector which in turn are mechanically displaced into the scrubber through the vacuum pump that the scrubber posseses. The exhaust fumes that enter the scrubber...
