  • Apparatus for analysis of a sample for sulphur
    Patent number: 4950456
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for decomposing and analyzing a sample for sulfur. The methods combust a nebulized sample in an oxygen-rich atmosphere and then analyze the combustion gases for sulfur. The apparatus employs a nebulizer operatively connected to a combustion tube and employs appropriate detector(s) to analyze the combustion gases from the combustion tube for sulfur.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 22, 1988
    Date of Patent: August 21, 1990
    Assignee: Shell Oil Company
    Inventors: Alan R. Forster, Gregory J. Kamla
  • Method and apparatus for oxidative decomposition and analysis of a sample
    Patent number: 4916077
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for decomposing and analyzing a sample. The methods combust a nebulized sample in an oxygen-rich atomsphere; the analysis method then analyzes the combustion gases for a preselected analyte. The apparatus employs a nebulizer operatively connected to a combustion tube; the analysis apparatus employs appropriate detector(s) to analyze the combustion gases from the combustion tube for preselected analyte(s).

  • Method and apparatus for reductive decomposition and analysis of a sample
    Patent number: 4904606
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for decomposing and analyzing a sample. The methods reduce a nebulized sample in a hydrogen-rich atmosphere; the analysis method then analyzes the reaction gases for preselected analyte(s). The decomposition apparatus employs a nebulizer operatively connected to a reduction tube; the analysis apparatus employs appropriate detector(s) to analyze the reduced gases from the reduction tube for preselected analyte(s).
