Argon effect on gas analysis for controlled atmosphere storage.
Author(s) : GOYETTE B., VIGNEAULT C., RAGHAVAN G. S. V.
Summary
The conventional gas chromatography method does not separate the argon from the oxygen, resulting in an overestimate of the oxygen, generally ranging between 5 and 80% of the reading depending on the controlled-atmosphere technique used and the air tightness of the storage system. A new method of gas chromatography was developed and tested to evaluate the gas concentration contained in a controlled-atmosphere room. The results of the 2 methods are compared.
