XOS launches sulfur, chlorine analyzer for petroleum refineries, labs
ALBANY, N.Y. -- XOS announced the release of Sindie +Cl, a sulfur and chlorine analyzer that delivers two critical measurements with one push of a button. It is the ideal for refineries and independent labs to certify sulfur levels in finished products and assess chlorine for corrosion mitigation.
"Existing instruments do not offer an easy transition between sulfur and chlorine analysis,” said Kyle Kuwitzky, Product Manager for XOS. “With Sindie +Cl, you can measure both elements using ASTM approved methods simultaneously, with one push of a button. And samples are measured directly, which means it can analyze the heaviest of hydrocarbons like crude or vacuum gas oil, without the hassles of consumable gasses, boats, injectors, furnaces, or changing detectors."
Refineries are facing many new challenges, including complying with new regulations, protecting against chlorine-induced corrosion and the costs associated with both. Globally, adoption of regulations like Euro VI and Tier 3 continue to lower the required sulfur level in automotive fuels.
In addition, refinery corrosion is a critical and expensive problem. With these changes come challenges, and it is more important than ever to seek out precise and reliable solutions to produce the best data.
