VUV Analytics, Inc. has recently completed an investigation with coker naphtha samples that indicates PIONA+ can be used to report compound class analysis of non-conjugated diolefins, conjugated diolefins, cycloolefins, and sulfur compounds. Individual analyte speciation is also possible for many of these compounds. Olefins, especially conjugated diolefins, are known to cause fouling of refinery processes and to negatively impact product quality. PIONA+ shows the potential for quickly characterizing the most problematic compounds…

Measuring Moisture in Acetonitrile Using Gas Chromatography and the LUMA Vacuum Ultraviolet (VUV) Detector: Trace Levels and Beyond
The water content of organic solvents is one of the crucial properties that affect the quality of the products and the efficiency of the manufacturing processes. In many organic solvents, water is generally considered an impurity, and therefore its measurement in solvents is of importance for many industries and technologies. This is especially true, for...
