RAFA provides an overview of contemporary trends in ANALYTICAL & BIOANALYTICAL STRATEGIES IN FOOD QUALITY AND SAFETY CONTROL and discusses CHALLENGES / NOVEL APPROACHES IN FOOD AND NATURAL PRODUCTS ANALYSIS.

Recent Advances in Food Analysis (RAFA)

The International Symposium on Chromatography (ISC) represents the oldest conference series focussing on separation science. ISC symposia have been organised since 1956 in each even year. ISC is internationally recognised as one of the premier meeting series for discussion of all modes of chromatography and separation science with a broad coverage of techniques and applications.

International Symposium on Chromatography - (ISC)

In 1936, the Laboratory Equipment Company introduced the first rapid carbon determinator for the American iron and steel industry.  Today, almost 80 years later, LECO is recognized globally as a leader in the development of high-quality analytical instrumentation, mass spectrometers, comprehensive two-dimensional chromatography, metallography & optical equipment as well as consumables.

Wasson GC O-FID Oxygenated Components in Gasoline Analyzer

Using an Agilent Technologies 8890 with custom Wasson-ECE hardware, this instrument rapidly determines oxygenate components in motor fuels.

Approved for determining oxygenates in gasoline and other motor fuels by ASTM D5599 and EN 1601
The determination of oxygenates in motor fuels is an important mandate of the reformulated fuels program. To meet this goal, the United States Environmental Protection Agency approved the use of Oxygenate Flame Ionization Detector (O-FID) analysis in preference to other analyses currently used by the fuels industry.
<h5>Oxygen Selectivity</h5>
Using an Agilent Technologies 8890 GC with custom Wasson-ECE hardware, this instrument rapidly determines oxygenate components in motor fuels. A single injection is introduced onto a capillary column which separates oxygenate components in boiling point order. A cracking reactor converts hydrocarbons into elemental carbon, and oxygenated compounds into carbon monoxide. A methanizer then further converts the carbon monoxide into methane before eluting to the FID detector.
Because hydrocarbons never make it to the detector, this method completely eliminates problems with hydrocarbon interferences.
<h5>Single GC 8890 Instrument Configurations:</h5>
<ul>
<li>ASTM D5599 or EN1601 - Oxygenates in gasoline and other motor fuels by O-FID.
</li>
<li>O-FID with D3606 - Oxygenates by O-FID per ASTM D5599 and benzene and toluene in motor fuels by FID per ASTM D3606
</li>
<li>O-FID with D4815 - Oxygenates by O-FID per ASTM D5599 and oxygenates by FID per ASTM D4815
</li>
<li>O-FID with D4815 and D3606 - Oxygenates by O-FID per ASTM D5599, oxygenates by FID per D4815, and benzene and toluene by FID per ASTM D3606
</li>
</ul>

<h5>Simple to Use and Operate</h5>
The Wasson-ECE O-FID has been engineered to provide long life and require infrequent service. When replacement of the cracking reactor or methanizer is necessary, the task can be accomplished in under one hour, including instrument equilibration time.
<h5>Precise Analyses</h5>
Repeatibility tests yield relative standard deviations (RSD) of approximately 1% by weight over a series of 10 runs for all major oxygenated components. The O-FID response is linear over four orders of magnitude. An automated injection device is recommended to provide the most reliable means of repeatable injection.

Wasson-ECE GC RGA Refinery Gas Analyzers

Wasson-ECE Refinery Gas Analyzers (RGA) are an integral part of any HPI lab. 

Wasson-ECE Refinery Gas Analyzers (RGA) are an integral part of any HPI lab. These instruments often carry the heaviest sample loads because of the critical information they provide. RGAs provide valuable information regarding plant operation, unit optimization, and quality control. Our RGA systems are designed for flexibility while maintaining the accurate and repeatable results our clients have come to expect.
As a premier channel partner of Agilent Technologies, Wasson-ECE extends the capabilities of the 8890 Gas Chromatograph to meet key requirements of refinery gas analysis. The Wasson-ECE RGA incorporates our specially designed auxiliary oven, which holds up to five additional rotary valves and six columns, extending the analysis capabilities far beyond traditional methods.
At Wasson-ECE we strive to produce a product that is innovative and state-of-the-art to help our customers overcome their analytical challenges. The flexibility of our RGA systems can ease bench space issues by combining analyses into a single instrument while maintaining an easy to service system with minimal downtime.

<h3>Wasson-ECE Super RGA</h3>
Wasson-ECE has the unique ability to add a fourth detector to the GC, building our Super RGA series of analyzers. The additional detector expands the analytical capabilities of the standard RGA to accommodate applications such as sulfurs, oxygenates, heavy hydrocarbons, and trace CO/CO₂. This increased flexibility in configurations can reduce the number of GC’s used in a lab, saving clients valuable bench space and time.
