System for Determination of Intra Catalyst Reactor Chemistry
Spaci-MS allows both radial and axial species determination and temperature profiles, with high spatial and temporal resolution and with negligible interference in flow or temperature. The 16 channel multi-inlet is coupled to Hiden’s fast transient MS to provide automatic and rapid mapping of temperature and species distributions.
