Impurity Analysis in Bulk Gas
![](/an/sites/shimadzu.com.an/files/d7//ckeditor/an/system-gc/impurityana/2030opb.jpg)
High-purity gas is necessary in industries such as chemical, medical, and foods. Precisely controlled GC enables identification and quantitation of a trace amount of impurities in bulk gas. If the gas resources in a factory consist of multiple lines, a sample line selector SLS-2020 can be utilized to switch sample lines automatically, allowing a single GC to analyze all samples.
Analytical Example: Impurities in He
Impurities in He can be measured with a single analysis. This example shows an analysis with PDHID.
Target compounds | Concentration |
H2 | 100 ppb |
O2 | 100 ppb |
N2 | 100 ppb |
CO | 100 ppb |
CH4 | 100 ppb |
CO2 | 100 ppb |

Greenhouse Gas Analysis
The greenhouse gas analyzer is a gas chromatography system that can simultaneously measure CH4, CO2, and N2O gases in a single sample injection, an analysis that was difficult to achieve with previous systems. Equipped with a robust high-throughput syringe injection system for processing up to 108 sample vials, this analyzer is designed to support research related to reducing greenhouse gas levels.
