Elemental Analysis
With CHNS analysis, the element percentages in the sample are determined by burning the sample at high temperature. When a sample of known weight is given to the device, it burns it at a high temperature, keeps the released gases in different columns, and gives the ratio between the mass of the first given substance and the masses of the elements he
ld in the columns as a percentage. C, H and S are infrared detectors, N is thermal conductivity detectors.
