Determination of Different Carbon Species According to DIN 19539

29 Jan, 2018

Published over 8 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Environmental laboratory.

In waste management it is necessary to differentiate between the different carbon species in soil and soil-type sample matrices. The Skalar PrimacsSNC-100 can measure Carbon as Total Carbon or differentiate Carbon as Organic (TOC400) Elemental (ROC) and Inorganic (TIC900) Carbon according to DIN 19539.

The analyser uses high-temperature catalytic combustion with a temperature ramping program. The vertical sample introduction autosampler automatically moves the samples to the different temperature zones in the combustion furnace. Each zone corresponds to a different temperature which results in values for TOC400, ROC and TIC900.
