Silicon Test

Siloxanes in bio-fuels can significantly affect both the performance and cost of operation of gas engines, gas turbines, micro turbines and flares. Evaluation of the siloxane mass is essential if operating issues affecting plant reliability and profitability are to be efficiently addressed. Silicon Analysis provides valuable information and guidance in determining the presence and quantity of siloxanes in landfill and digester gas.  The Spectro | Jet-Care Silicon Test Kit is designed around a positive gas displacement pump which draws a fixed volume of the sample gas through three bottles containing a carefully selected absorption medium. Non-speciated, repeatable results with low detection limits are used in identifying the total level of silicon in the fuel gas. The results are reported as mg/Nm3 CH4, ppm and ug/btu.
