Refinery
Through all stages of the refinery process X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF) is used for the determination of elements from the crude oil, intermediates to final products like e.g. gasoline, automotive fuel and kerosene. Accurate and precise Sulphur analysis down to lowest trace levels is actually the most important task in the hydrocarbon processing Industry (HPI). To avoid serious effects on the catalysts, corrosion on production accessories and environmental problems the sulphur concentration needs to be reduced consequently within all stages of the process. Legislation all over the world demands reduction of the sulphur levels in all kind of fuels close to zero level, an analytical challenge in daily routine process and quality control in a refinery. Wavelength dispersive-X-ray fluorescence Analysis (WDXRF) perfectly meets the requirements of these analytical tasks.
X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF) in the refinery – Bruker AXS provides the perfect Solution for process and quality control
- S4 PIONEER
BRUKER AXS is offering with the outstanding wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometers S4 PIONEER and S8 TIGER (WDXRF) in combination with PETRO-QUANT the perfect solution for element analysis in the refinery, satisfying all demands whether it is norm compliant analysis of lowest Sulphur levels in final products, like e.g. automotive fuels, jetcraft fuels, gasoline or the easy quantification of the elemental composition of catalysts. The high analytical performance of BRUKER AXS solution is ensuring that future demands are met regarding accuracy, precison and detection limits. Reliable and safe liquid analysis in daily routine is guaranteed with the unique vacuum seal technology and effective tube head cooling. Easy operation with less training and a fast startup period is provided with SPECTRAplus software and the dedicated norm-compliant calibrations of PETRO-QUANT.
