Today, most GC columns are fused silica capillaries with an inner diameter of 100–320 micrometres (0.0039–0.0126 in) and a length of 5–60 metres (16–197 ft). The GC column is located inside an oven where the temperature of the gas can be controlled and the effluent coming off the column is monitored by a suitable detector. [1]
Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography, or GC×GC, is a multidimensional gas chromatography technique that was originally described in 1984 by J. Calvin Giddings [1] and first successfully implemented in 1991 by John Phillips and his student Zaiyou Liu. [2] GC×GC utilizes two different columns with two different stationary phases. In ...
A relatively recent analytical tool that has been used for the separation of UCMs is comprehensive two-dimensional GC ().This powerful technique, introduced by Liu and Phillips [20] combines two GC columns with different separation mechanisms: typically a primary column that separates compounds based on volatility coupled to a second short column that separates by polarity.
Pyrolysis–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry is a method of chemical analysis in which the sample is heated to decomposition to produce smaller molecules that are separated by gas chromatography and detected using mass spectrometry. Pyrolysis is the thermal decomposition of materials in an inert atmosphere or a vacuum.
The trap is then heated and the sample compounds are introduced to the GC–MS column via a volatiles interface, which is a split inlet system. P&T GC–MS is particularly suited to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and BTEX compounds (aromatic compounds associated with petroleum). [11] A faster alternative is the "purge-closed loop" system.
A post-column oxidation-reduction reactor is a chemical reactor that performs derivatization to improve the quantitative measurement of organic analytes.It is used in gas chromatography (GC), after the column and before a flame ionization detector (FID), to make the response factor of the detector uniform for all carbon-based species.
To prevent the stationary phase from leaking out of the column interior a polymer, stainless steel or ceramic net is usually applied. Depending on the application material- and size-requirements may change. Gas chromatography (GC): Older columns were made of glass or metal packed with particles of a solid stationary phase. More recently ...
Stripping is mainly conducted in trayed towers (plate columns) and packed columns, and less often in spray towers, bubble columns, and centrifugal contactors. [2] Trayed towers consist of a vertical column with liquid flowing in the top and out the bottom. The vapor phase enters in the bottom of the column and exits out of the top.
