Carbon Residue Analyzer
The Carbon Residue Analyzer is a specialized analytical instrument used in the petrochemical industry for determining the carbon residue content of oil products—the residue formed after evaporation and cracking under specific high-temperature conditions. The carbon residue value is a key indicator for evaluating the coking tendency, thermal stability, and combustion performance of oil products, particularly heavy oils, residual oils, lubricating base oils, and biodiesel. This data is of decisive significance for predicting engine carbon deposition, furnace coking, catalyst poisoning risks, and optimizing refining processes such as delayed coking and catalytic cracking.
