Product Description

AOD 1 Decomposition system

The AOD 1 is used for oxidative decomposition of solid and liquid organic and partially inorganic samples under pressure in a closed system.
The system consists of:
AOD 1.1 Decomposition vessel, C 48 Oxygen station, AOD 1.2 External ignition unit, AOD 1.11 Control standard (50 ml)

- Quantitative decomposition of all halogens, sulfur, as well as volatile metals, e.g. As and Hg
- Absorption of the combustion products in an aqueous medium
- Catalytic support of the oxidation process with auto-regenerating catalytic inner surface of the decomposition vessel
- Pressure vessel of high-grade stainless steel
- Decomposition temperature up to 1200 °C
- Max. operating pressure during decomposition 195 bar
- Decomposition time < 3 min
- The decomposition vessel can be changed over to use combustible crucibles C 14
- Control standards for Cl, S ( AOD 1.11)
- Introduction of the combustion gases into the absorption solution via venting station C 7030

Principle and function are based on the method of the combustion in the bomb calorimeter and validated according
DIN 51577, part 1 dt. 1982
other relevant validations are:
- DIN / EN 14582, determination characteristics of waste, halogen and sulfur content
- DIN 51527, Testing of solid samples, determination of chlorine content
