Fluorine in Liquid Hydrocarbons and LPG by Oxidative Combustion with Ion-Selective Electrode Detection

UOP 975 – Fluorine in Liquid Hydrocarbons and LPG by Oxidative Combustion with Ion-Selective Electrode Detection

This method is for determining total fluorine in liquid hydrocarbons or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) us-ing the Antek 9000F analyzer. It is applicable to liquid hydrocarbons with fluorine levels of 1 to 500(m/v-ppm) with appropriate calibration standards. Higher concentrations can be analyzed by dilution in a solvent such as isooctane or toluene. The fluorine concentration in LPG can be measured down to 0.5 .This method is an alternative to UOP Method 619, which uses the potentially troublesome Wick-bold combustion apparatus.
