Kjeldahl Digestion 4 and 8 Units with Jet Scrubber Connected to Kjeldahl Apparatus
The Kjeldahl method is a chemical analysis technique for measuring nitrogen in organic materials, introduced by Johan Kjeldahl in 1883. In this method, the sample is digested in sulfuric acid, converting nitrogen into ammonium sulfate. Adding potassium sulfate is essential to raise the boiling point of the medium, speed up the reaction, and complete the digestion process. The solution turning clear indicates the completion of the chemical reaction. This method is performed with high accuracy using ASCO digestion and distillation devices.
ASCODigestion Models
The ASCO 4-unit and 8-unit digestion devices with jet scrubbers are designed to perform precise and safe chemical digestion in the method. Each digestion unit has a separate furnace that operates independently of the device controller. This feature prevents damage to the controller and enhances safety and ease of use.
Available models include 4-unit and 8-unit furnace digestion systems as well as 10-unit aluminum models, all equipped with advanced furnaces featuring ceramic insulation, flat heating elements, and chain tubes to uniformly transfer heat up to 500°C. The 300 cc tubes allow the use of larger sample volumes, optimizing performance for professional applications.
