Determination of Total Chlorine in Derived or Secondary Fuels Using High-Temperature Combustion and Coulometric Titration

Waste materials are becoming more and more important as valuable feed materials for energy production, as fuels and recycled feed materials for the chemical industry. To ensure a trouble-free processing and high quality of the final products, the exact elemental composition has to be determined. This is also crucial for avoiding the emission of undesired hazardous compounds, such as chlorine. In this application note, discover a method for determination of chlorine using high-temperature combustion followed by coulometric titration.
