Measurement of H2O2 and HQ levels

High speed production processes demand H2O2 and HQ levels to be on spec

High speed production processes demand H2O2 and HQ levels to be on spec during production, in order to achieve the optimal process conditions.

On-Line analysis of high and low levels of H2O2 and HQ in just one Analyzer is required.

The on-time determination of the quantity of Hydrogen Peroxide and Hydroquinone for process control is of vital importance to the cost efficiency of the Peroxide plant.

Hence the requirement for the operators to have this analysis done quickly in order to stay in close touch with the process is essential.

Attempts have been made to get this analysis done by various other means but all have shown not enough reliability to control the plant.

To keep a tight process control, the analysis route via the lab to run a reliable analysis, is too time consuming.

The best option is to duplicate the lab analysis in order to continuously discriminate between H2O2 and HQ, with an analytical system that can cope with the harsh conditions in the plant.

This is a realistic option with the Applikon Process Analyser model ADI 2040.

The model 2040 is using proven titration methods, delivering results at regular time intervals, or at command instantly, without having to grab a sample and running it to the lab for testing.

The 2040 is well geared up for the harsh conditions at a chemical production site: it is housed in a rugged steel and polystyrene shell, heavy duty coated and comes as an explosion proof version (CENELEC (50014/ 50016), without the need of a separate enclosure, thus lowering the investment.

In addition one can freely access the Analyzer for servicing at any time, without the need of a hot work permit.

In this way, the Analyzer will be the dependable cornerstone in the H2O2/HQ economic plant production.
