Column Controls

For column analysis and troubleshooting it is important to have pressure drop measured with a DP cell. The differential pressure can also be used to control column traffic. A good way to do this would be to let the differential pressure control the heating medium to the reboiler. The largest application for differential pressure control is with packed columns where it is desirable to run at 80 to 100% of flood for best efficiency. [Pg.69]

Preliminary Hazard Analysis Description. The incorporation of this information into a PHA entry is shown as Table II. This entry describes the proposed actions needed to eliminate or control the hazard (column 6), the risk assessment code assigned after controls (column 7), and the identification of applicable codes and standards (column 8). [Pg.220]

When the column temperature is set to a near ambient temperature, external air is brought into the oven via a computer-controlled flap, providing rigid temperature control stability. (The lowest controllable column temperature is 24°C when the ambient temperature is 18°C and the injection port temperature is 250°C. The temperature fluctuation is less than 0.1 °K even when the column temperature is set at 50°C. [Pg.65]

The anthocyanins exist in solution as various structural forms in equilibrium, depending on the pH and temperature. In order to obtain reproducible results in HPLC, it is essential to control the pH of the mobile phase and to work with thermostatically controlled columns. For the best resolution, anthocyanin equilibria have to be displaced toward their flavylium forms — peak tailing is thus minimized and peak sharpness improved. Flavylium cations are colored and can be selectively detected in the visible region at about 520 nm, avoiding the interference of other phenolics and flavonoids that may be present in the same extracts. Typically, the pH of elution should be lower than 2. A comparison of reversed-phase columns (Ci8, Ci2, and phenyl-bonded) for the separation of 20 wine anthocyanins, including mono-glucosides, diglucosides, and acylated derivatives was made by Berente et al. It was found that the best results were obtained with a C12 4 p,m column, with acetonitrile-phosphate buffer as mobile phase, at pH 1.6 and 50°C. [Pg.14]

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is one of the premier analytical techniques widely used in analytical laboratories. Numerous analytical HPLC analyses have been developed for pharmaceutical, chemical, food, cosmetic, and environmental applications. The popularity of HPLC analysis can be attributed to its powerful combination of separation and quantitation capabilities. HPLC instrumentation has reached a state of maturity. The majority of vendors can provide very sophisticated and highly automated systems to meet users needs. To provide a high level of assurance that the data generated from the HPLC analysis are reliable, the performance of the HPLC system should be monitored at regular intervals. In this chapter some of the key performance attributes for a typical HPLC system (consisting of a quaternary pump, an autoinjector, a UV-Vis detector, and a temperature-controlled column compartment) are discussed [1-8]. [Pg.173]

Analysis by GC-MS of the contaminating peaks in eluates from a blank control column revealed ethyl hexadecanoate, methylbutyl phthalate, stearic acid, methyl 4-methyldodecanoate, dioctyl phthalate (two peaks), and an alkyl benzene. An eighth peak corresponded to an isomer of geranyl citronellal [(H3C)2C=CHCH2CH2C(CH3)= CHCH2CH2C(CH3)=CHCH2CH2C(CH3)CH2CHO]. The A-162 eluate showed bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate. [Pg.503]

Influence of Hypochlorite on Parfait Columns. One potential use of the parfait method is the recovery of organic matter from drinking water. To test for the interaction of chlorine disinfectant with column components or eluents, the influence of 2 ppm of hypochlorite was assessed in an unspiked control column. Each eluate was assayed for hypochlorite by using the ferrous N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine titrimetric method (12). No hypochlorite was detected. Each eluate was also analyzed by GC and found to be virtually identical to a blank column without hypochlorite run simultaneously. [Pg.503]

Recovery of Test Solutes. The recovery of test solutes is reported in the data from columns 102-123 (Tables VI-IX). Other than the suite of solutes tested on each column, the columns differ as follows Columns 102-109 used a 50-mL Teflon bed, columns 110-120 used a 150-mL bed, columns 109-120 included 2.0 ppm of humic acid in the influent, and column 102 used 8 bed volumes of methanol for fraction 5, rather than the usual 4 bed volumes. Columns 117, 118, and 120 were replicate runs including 16 test solutes at once, excluding only those solutes that could not be analyzed reliably in the presence of the solutes included. Column 119 was an unspiked control column run with humic acid and used to identify contaminants in the eluates of columns 117,... [Pg.505]

The TCE distribution in the control column after 672 shows a decline in TCE concentration from the contaminated zone proximal to the anode (0 cm), vertically downwards in the soil column, and most likely represents the diffusion of TCE (Figure 4). The TCE concentration profiles in ECs define a broad distribution and indicate that the bulk of the TCE has moved towards the cathode in response to electroosmotic fluid flow. After one week of processing, the bulk of contaminant has moved more than 5 cm toward the cathode. After two weeks ofEO, the center of the plume has moved more than 10 cm toward the cathode. After three and four weeks of EO, there are no definite peaks within the column, however, the concentrations of TCE remained highest near the cathode (Figure 4). [Pg.105]

It is apparent that the TCE which started out in a small zone, was transported through the column within 339 hrs of EO. This profile shows definitive movement of TCE in a manner unlike that in the control column. [Pg.105]

The profiles of TCE concentration of the control and test columns were used to determine the effective dispersion/diffusion coefficients. As the TCE concentrations closed to the cathode were near zero during four weeks without EO (Figure 5), the variance of the four TCE concentration profiles in the control columns were used to determine the values of D/Rof TCE. The estimated Dd/R for TCE is 6.9 x 10 6 cm2/sec (equation (10)) with r-square of (0.99). Only the TCE profiles of the first week of the test column was used to determine the value of D as the peak of the TCE plume had advanced out of the boundary after two weeks of testing (Figure 6). The estimated D is 1.4 x 10 s cm2/sec. The results indicate that the effective dispersion coefficient is twice of the effective diffusion coefficient (D/R). [Pg.106]

The parameters (Table 2) were substituted into equations (8) and (9) to obtain the TCE concentration as a function of distance from the anode at a given time. The simulated TCE concentration profiles for the control columns are similar in magnitude and pattern with the measured values (Figure 5). The simulated concentrations close to the anode, however, deviate more from the measured values than at other locations. This could be due to that the measured values represented the average concentration over 3 cm of the column. In the vicinity of the anode, where the TCE concentration gradient is highest, averaging the concentration could cause more discrepancy between the simulated and measured values. [Pg.107]

Like buying computer software, the first step is to decide exactly what you will be using the HPLC for today and possibly in the future. I m not talking about specific separations at this point those decisions will be used to control column selection, which we will discuss in a moment. What I m really looking for is an overall philosophy of use. [Pg.17]

Normal 1. Column temperature fluctuation. (Even small changes cause cyclic baseline rise and fall. Most often affects refractive index and conductivity detectors. UV detectors at high sensitivity or in indirect photometric mode.) 1. Control column and mobile phase temperature, use heat exchanger before detector. [Pg.125]

In capillary column gas chromatography, it is often required to raise and lower the column temperature very rapidly and to raise the sample injection port temperature. In one design of gas chromatography, the Shimadzu GC 14-A, the computer-controlled flap operates to bring in the external air to cool the column oven rapidly—only 6min from 500°C to 100°C. This computer-controlled flap also ensures highly stable column temperature when it is set to a near-ambient point. The lowest controllable column temperature is about 26°C when the ambient temperature is 20°C... [Pg.23]

A fourth degree of freedom is consumed to control column pressure. The valves available are condenser cooling (by far the most commonly7 used), reboiler heat input, and feed (if the feed is partially vapor). If a flooded condenser is used, the cooling water valve is wide open and an additional valve, typically located between the condenser and the reflux drum, is used to cover or expose heat-transfer area in the condenser. [Pg.196]

When a partial condenser is used and the distillate is removed from the column as a vapor, common practice is to use this vapor stream to control column pressure. The reflux drum level is usually controlled by manipulating condenser cooling, and reflux flowrate is fixed or ra-tioed to feed. Heat input is used to control a tray temperature (Fig. 6.9a). [Pg.231]

Step 6. Two pressures must be controlled in the column and in the gas loop. The most direct handle to control column pressure is by manipulating the vent stream from the decanter. We have three choices to control gas loop pressure purge flow, flow to the CO> removal system, and the fresh ethylene feed flow since fresh oxygen flow has been previously selected. Both the purge flow and the flow to the C02 removal system are small relative to the gas recycle flowrate. Any changes in either one would not have a large effect on gas loop pressure. Since ethylene composes a substantia] part of the gas recycle stream, pressure is a good indication of the ethylene inventory. So we choose the fresh ethylene feed flow to control gas recycle loop pressure. [Pg.333]

The most direct way to control the remaining levels would be with the exit valves from the vessels. However, if we do this we see that all of the flows around the liquid recycle loop would be set on the basis of levels, which would lead to undesirable propagation of disturbances. Instead we should control a flow somewhere in this loop. Acetic acid is the main component in the liquid recycle loop. Recycle and fresh acetic acid feed determine the component s composition in the reactor feed. A reasonable choice at this point is to control the total acetic acid feed stream flow into the vaporizer. This means that we can use the fresh acetic acid feed stream to control column base level, since this is an indication of the acetic acid inventory in the process. Vaporizer level is then controlled with the vaporizer steam flow and separator and absorber levels can be controlled with the liquid exit valves from the units. [Pg.334]

We used a typical GC setup and a mass spectroscopic detector. The only modification involves controlling column pressure between 20 - 1000 kPa. The following table lists the main features of the experimental system used. All previous attempts to use the GC technique for binary measurements were conducted at constant (atmospheric) pressure. The pure component isotherms are obtained form a conventional volumetric technique. [Pg.133]

It weighs 100 lbs and is designed to carry one person. Thrust is generated by self-starting, throttle controlled liq fuel rockets mounted in the tips of the two small rotor blades. The rotor is attached to, a steel. tube which curves downward to support the fuel tanks, a pilot seat and a cargo hook. A tube extending backward from the rotor hub carries a small rudder, and another extending forward and down is the pilot s control column... [Pg.781]

The thermal stability of the stationary phase is also important. Because each stationary phase has a range of thermal stability, it is important to control column temperature within the specified range. For the nonpolar phases, the temperature limit is determined by the stability of the poly-imide coating. The introduction of aluminum clad columns notably broadens the useable temperature range. Oxidation at higher temperatures limits the operating temperature of intermediate to polar phases. [Pg.152]

For many applications, close control of column temperature is not necessary, and columns are operated at room temperature. Often, however, better chromatograms are obtained by maintaining column temperatures constant to a few tenths of a degree Celsius. Most modern commercial instruments are now equipped with heaters that control column temperatures to a few tenths of a degree from nearambient to 150°C. Columns may also be fitted with water jackets fed from a constant-temperature bath to give precise temperature control. [Pg.979]

In accordance with the literature a condensation resin with [2b.2.2] anchor groups was synthesized from phenol and formaldehyde (see Fig. 6). The capacity of the resin corresponding to the number of anchor groups was 0.567 + 0.003 mmol/g. This is the average of determinations with the calcium uptake in methanol, the proton uptake in water, and the elementary analysis of nitrogen. 4 g of the resin were applied in a thermostatically controlled column (diameter = 0.5 cm, height = 12 cm). A solution containing 10 mg CaClj was deposited at the top of the column... [Pg.117]
