Elemental Analysis of Biofuels with SPECTRO XRF and ICP Spectrometers With a complete range of Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (ED-XRF) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission (ICP-OES) Spectrometers, SPECTRO’s unique solutions for at-line and laboratory elemental analysis are capable of meeting the most demanding product specification testing requirements.

Biofuels today and tomorrow To keep pace with the rapidly emerging developments of new biofuels, including second generation bio-materials, one of the key industry challenges is to ensure customer confidence in consistent quality of low sulfur biofuels using advanced, precise, easy to use analytical technology. This ensures extender product or finished blends meet the exacting new ASTM and EN biofuel specifications. This technology allows the industry to measure at sub 10-15 ppm levels of sulfur in biofuels to guarantee meeting federal government agency requirements, but also minimizing and measuring...

Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence technology (ED-XRF) provides one of the simplest, most accurate and most economic analytical methods for the determination of the chemical composition of many types of materials. It is non-destructive and reliable, requires no, or very little, sample preparation and is suitable for solid, liquid and powder samples. It can be used for a wide range of elements, provides detection limits in the sub-ppm level and can also measure concentrations of up to 100 % easily and simultaneously. At-line or in the Laboratory, Advanced Performance ED-XRF Spectrometer The...

ICP-OES Over the last 30 years, Optical Emission Spectrometers with Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP-OES) excitation sources have become an indispensable tool for chemical elemental analysis. Their ease of use, high sensitivity and precision, plus relative freedom from interferences have made ICP-OES systems the analytical method of SPECTRO GENESIS choice for a wide range of applications. The SPECTRO GENESIS offers a real economic alternative to sequential ICP-OES and Atomic Absorption spectrometers, enabling those who are unfamiliar with ICP-OES to profit from the advantages of leading CCD ICP-OES...

conventional ICP spectrometers. Hidden inside the prominent left side of the instrument is the unique optical system – a major development with unbeatable resolution, accuracy and stability. Available with an interface for either axial or radial plasma observation, the new CCD optic system with Paschen-Runge mount assembly delivers a matchless resolution of 8.5 picometer in the important wavelength range from 130 to 340 nm. Additional SPECTRO ARCOS strengths include the extremely robust, free-running generator and the low maintenance and economical UV-PLUS system for high VUV transparency down...
