Natural Gas
Quick and Reliable
Determination of Composition
and Calorific Values
Natural gas is a fossil fuel widely used for town gas, electric generation and
organic chemicals as feedstock.
Natural gas contains mainly methane and other light hydrocarbons and also
contains a small amounts of carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen
sulfide, or helium as impurities.
For the trading of natural gas, calorific value and purity are measured. Some
of impurities such as hydrogen sulfide must be controlled before using for
producing chemicals in next streams in the plant.
Shimadzu natural gas analyzers measure permanent gases and light
hydrocarbons from C1 to C5 with C6+ backflush, as well as extended type has
function for measuring middle hydrocarbons up to C15. Our factory assembles
and tests our GC analyzers for the chemical composition analysis of natural
gas and liquid natural gas. System is equipped with software that outputs
reports according to ISO, BTU requirements.
