Inorganic Ions and Organic

Acids

Inorganic anions and organic acids are incorporated into process water and can be detrimental to process efficiency.
Various contaminants can cause corrosion of plumbing or can poison expensive catalysts used during processing.

Shimadzu’s Prominence Ion Chromatograph allows for rugged, repeatable IC analyses for process- and wastewater.
Its patent-pending electrolytic suppressor design features a folded flowpath for maximized suppression efficiency.
The Prominence IC is also small, up to 4% narrower than similar instruments. The performance of the Prominence
IC has been evaluated for the requirements of common EPA methods, such as Method 300 and 300.1 for analysis of
anions in water to help with assessment of process water and permitting for discharge.

Ion Chromatograph
Prominence IC

The Prominence IC features:

• Unique suppressor design minimizes size and internal volume while
maximizing internal surface area for small size and minimal peak
broadening.
• Completely inert flowpath ensures no leaching or corrosion when using
caustic eluents, which maximizes column and suppressor lifespan.
• Narrow, forced-air column oven offers superior thermal stability up to 85° C
• High-speed autosampling that provides repeatable, reliable injections.
• Measures only 16.5 inches wide, optimizing valuable laboratory bench
space.

The Prominence Ion Chromatograph features a slim, space-
saving design that uses up to 47% less bench space than
comparable IC instruments.
