Analysis of Permanent Gases: More Challenging Than You Might Think
On the surface, this would appear to be a simple separation—however, there are several challenges related to the analysis of permanent gases.
We will discuss typical techniques for resolving and detecting permanent gases, including carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Other topics will include cryogenic techniques, column isolation, and the use of the Agilent J&W Select Permanent Gases/CO2 GC column.
