Description
The IKA® AOD 1 is a decomposition system for the oxidative breakdown of solid and liquid organic — and partially inorganic — samples under pressure in a closed system. Combustion follows the bomb-calorimeter principle: the sample is burned inside a high-grade stainless steel pressure vessel whose auto-regenerating catalytic inner surface drives oxidation to completion, giving exceptionally high recovery (98–100%). It quantitatively decomposes all halogens and sulfur as well as volatile metals such as arsenic and mercury, with the combustion products absorbed into an aqueous medium for downstream analysis (for example by ion chromatography). The method is validated to DIN 51577-1 and supports standards including DIN/EN 14582 and DIN 51527.
Key features:
- Oxidative decomposition of organic and partially inorganic solids and liquids
- Quantitative recovery of halogens, sulfur and volatile metals (As, Hg) — 98–100% recovery
- Auto-regenerating catalytic inner surface for complete oxidation
- High-grade stainless steel pressure vessel; up to 1200 °C and 195 bar
- Decomposition time under 3 minutes
- Combustion products absorbed in aqueous solution; control standards (AOD 1.11) for Cl and S
Package Includes:
- AOD 1.1 Decomposition vessel
- C 48 Oxygen station
- AOD 1.2 External ignition unit
- AOD 1.11 Control standard (50 ml)
Note: a protective device is required to safely ignite the sample. If one is already in place, add the AOD 1.3 remote ignition head; otherwise the AOD 1.3 protective device can be selected.
