Fast and cost-effective sulfur determination is an important task of process optimization and quality control in refineries.
Even very low sulfur contaminations can poison the catalyst and thereby affect its effectiveness. To avoid troubles feed stocks, process streams, and final products must be monitored precisely. The most reliable method to do so is the thermal decomposition of samples followed by UV-fluorescence detection of the formed SO2 (e.g. ASTM D 7183, D 5453 or DIN 20846). Dependent on the process step, the sulfur contents can vary in a broad range from a few ppb up to high ppm...
