Elemental Analysis for Petrochemical Applications

The elemental analysis of petrochemical products such as crude oils, intermediate refinery products, automotive fuels, or modern lubricating oils is quite challenging. If you work with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectroscopy (ICP), the organic matrix of petrochemical products requires special attention during sample preparation and instrument adjustment. Here, X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) is really different and brings a lot of benefits to your lab, including simple sample preparation and elimination of daily re-calibrations. During this webinar, you will learn more about why sample preparation in XRF is so simple and straight forward and how the comprehensive XRF portfolio from Bruker can boost your sample throughput for such demanding applications. We will provide information that will help you to decide if an Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) or a Wavelength Dispersive XRF (WDXRF) instrument is the best choice for your specific petrochemical application.
