The conductivity of the eluent is reduced with an anion suppression device prior to the ionchromatographs thermal conductivity detector, where

30、 the anions of interest are measured. Quantification of the fluorine, chlorineand sulfur in the original combusted sample is achieved by first calibrating the system with a series of standards containing knownamounts of fluorine, chlorine and sulfur and then analyzing unknown samples under the same

31、conditions as the standards. Thecombined system of pyrohydrolytic combustion followed by ion chromatographic detection is referred to as Combustion IonChromatography (CIC).5.
