Total metal measurements in a process liquor in an Australian metal refinery

Total metal measurements in an Australian metal refinery

The purpose to measure total metals online is to give accurate and more data for the operator to control the process. Having better control of the process increases the efficiency of the process and allows for significant savings in the range of hundreds of thousands of dollars every year. Performing the...

Lithium, ensuring quality supply

Every advance in technology brings about new challenges. This is no different with the take-up of lithium batteries for solar-battery systems around the home, power storage farms or for electric cars. The strong demand for lithium-based batteries has led to lithium mining and processing growing at a rapid rate. Initially...

Environmental monitoring does save money

High cost of environmental incidents Government monitoring of trade wastes and industrial outflows is at its highest level in history. In combination with this, the fines being handed out for exceeding trade waste limits or environmental contamination due to process failures is also at its highest. With the cost of...

Fast cyanide analysis for metal processing and extraction

Ensuring the minimum concentrations of cyanide While considered highly dangerous, cyanide is also extremely useful in metal extraction and plating baths due to the solubility of the complexes it creates with the likes of gold and copper. As regulations around the use of cyanide increase, so too does the cost...

Photometric titration of nickel

Nickel-containing materials play a major role in our everyday lives – food preparation equipment, mobile phones, medical equipment, transport, buildings, power generation – to name a few. They are selected because they offer greater corrosion resistance, better toughness, superior strength at high and low temperatures, and a range of unique...

Secure your reputation and save the planet with Ion Chromatography

Wastewater monitoring in industrial processes Wastewater is now a heavily monitored product of the industrial process for many obvious reasons. Not only can contaminated water cause environmental issues, it can cost dearly. Penalties can be harsh and the reputation of the offending business can suffer greatly. Halide, nutrient and metals...

Complexometric titration of aluminum chloride with OMNIS

OMNIS is the ideal system for quick and accurate determination of aluminum in aluminum chloride using complexometric back titration with an ion-selective copper electrode (Cu-ISE). Copper sulfate is used as the titrant.

The new generation of particle characterisation – Image analysis with the CAMSIZER X2

Particle characterisation by Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) has become increasingly popular in recent years. This technique delivers very accurate particle size distributions in a very short time, is virtually maintenance-free and, unlike other methods like sieve analysis or laser diffraction, provides particle shape information. The CAMSIZER X2 is the latest...

Retsch Technology: "the sample" Magazine: Particle Characterisation with Dynamic Image Analysis

Tired of Sieving? There is an easier and faster way.

Dynamic Image Analysis Volume 42 of Retsch “the sample” magazine focuses on particle size characterization with Dynamic Image Analysis.

Silver Award for Excellence in Instrumentation for Process IC

Pittcon 2017 in Chicago might be a 20-hour flight away (or more) from Australia… Nonetheless at the annual leading exposition for laboratory science featuring new technology and scientific research Metrohm had some very good days. Pittcon Silver Award for the Metrohm Process IC Metrohm, the perennial groundbreaker in ion analysis...

Determination of Iron(II), Iron(III), total and free acid in an etching bath

Acid etching baths are used for oxide removal and cleaning of the surface of different types of steel. To keep the bath in an optimum condition the Fe2+/Fe3+ and free acid/total acid ratios must be maintained within certain limits. Auxiliary substances like hydrogen peroxide are added to influence the Fe2+/Fe3+...

Four titration workstations running up to 175 samples independently from the sample robot

The market has spoken and we have listened. Faster, Safer, Easier, Smarter, More than ever before. Metrohm's titration platform is modular and can be expanded from a simple stand-alone titrator to a powerful robotic system performing 4 analyses simultaneously processing up to 175 samples completely unattended. Multiple work stations that...
