Abstract
An improved system for the measurement of sulfur compounds is described. The system comprises an enclosed burner assembly for the conversion of sulfur-containing compounds to sulfur monoxide and subsequent detection of sulfur monoxide by ozone-induced chemiluminescence. The new burner assembly provides higher efficiency for the conversion of sulfur compounds to produce sulfur monoxide than previous flame-based detection systems.
Claims14
A method for measuring sulfur compounds in a sample, comprising oxidizing the sample in a ceramic furnace to produce sulfur monoxide;
- reacting the sulfur monoxide with ozone;
- and measuring the radiation resulting from the reaction of sulfur monoxide with ozone to determine the sulfur content in the sample.
