Help quantifying NH3
Posted: Fri Nov 14, 2014 7:05 pm
Hi,
My name is Nicholas Frank and I am a development engineer at E3 Clean Technologies. We have a product which produces ammonia and other gaseous compounds. We are in the development stage of this product and need the effluent gas stream quantified. So far, we have been able to identify ammonia, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen in our effluent gas stream. But we've only been able to identify these compounds, not quantify them.
We would like to quantify these compounds and finding a vendor to which we send samples is proving difficult. This is mostly because of ammonia. Our product exists to produce ammonia, so obviously there are very high concentrations (>10%). Most vendors cannot quantify ammonia and/or it damages their GC equipment.
I am aware of the OV-1 column which can quantify ammonia and was wondering if anyone had access to a GC or knew someone who did, who can quantify our effluent gas stream?
Thanks for your time.
