Vitas possesses unique expertise for the quantitative determination of various important chemicals which are added to offshore drilling water and oil wells.
Matrices collected from such sites are highly challenging as the salinity is often extreme.
Furthermore, substances used as “scale inhibitors” are often polymeric and have multiple mixed ionisable functionalities, hampering the use of chromatography.
Methods based on LC-MS or LC-UV are available in the Vitas portfolio for analysis of a range of “scale inhibitors”, including:
- Polycarboxylic acids
- Sulphonated polymers
- Phosphorylated polymers
in the low ppm range.
Perhaps you company have the need for a assay in water with extreme salinity but think it is not possible?
