Complimentary Biodiesel Seminar at
Metrohm UK
At Metrohm UK we have witnessed a large increase in demand for instrumentation for biodiesel analysis as per the European Standard EN14214: so a half day seminar is planned to explain such testing
At Metrohm UK we have witnessed a large increase in demand for instrumentation for biodiesel analysis as listed in the European Standard EN14214 We are the only manufacturers who can offer as a portfolio, instruments for oxidative stability, Karl Fischer moisture determination and titrations such as acid value analysis

Sparkling drinks are the main cause of increasing tooth erosion among teenagers: a study in the British Dental Journal found a strong link between fizzy drink consumption and tooth erosion
So as part of the continuing Metrohm effort to provide first class support and expertise in selected fields, we are holding a half day seminar especially for Bio Diesel Analysis.
We believe bringing people in the same industry together to see the right instruments will help both Metrohm UK and customers to excel in a burgeoning market.
For instance, we know most laboratories have Karl Fischer and Titration capabilities but how many have a Rancimat? The standard EN14112 lists the Rancimat as the instrument for oxidative stability of FAME but what is a Rancimat? We want people to take the opportunity to come and see the instruments and understand what they are and what they do.
Anyone involved in the Bio Diesel industry or thinking of exploring the bio diesel industry should attend the seminar.
Contract Analytical laboratories, petro-chemical companies plus many more.
The format will include short lectures on topics as follows.
* Theory of Oxidative Stability in Biodiesel.
* Karl Fischer Moisture Analysis for Biodiesel.
Titrations for Biodiesel Practical session looking at the instruments available, see the Rancimat working.
* Open forum for questions and answers.
The planned agenda is as follows.
* 9.15 Registration and Coffee.
* 9.30 Introduction to Metrohm UK and Metrohm Switzerland.
* 9.45 Theory of Oxidative Stability Measurement for Bodies.
* 10.15 Titration and KF Measurement for BioDiesel.
* 11.45 Practical sessions with instruments, Rancimat software demo, open forum for discussion.
* 13.00 Close and lunch for those who can spare the time.
Presentations will be given by our own Product Managers and the World wide Product Specialist for Bio Diesel from Metrohm Switzerland. Request a free brochure from Metrohm UK ...
