CHROMATOGRAPH

Specialty Definition: CHROMATOGRAPH

DomainDefinition

Mining

An instrument for analyzing gases and vapors from liquids with boiling points up to 300 degrees C. The gas chromatograph often arranges the molecules of a gas in increasing size, and as each group emerges from the column, a detector measures the quantity of each. Since all the molecules of one type emerge after the same time interval, it is possible toidentify quickly the constituents present. (references)
