The present disclosure relates to a method for measuring aromatic contents in a hydrocarbon solution. More specifically, it relates to a measurement method capable of quickly and accurately checking aromatic contents in a compound, particularly in a hydrocarbon, in a solution state without a high-temperature drying process.

A system includes a phase behavior analysis unit having a housing, a heating system connected to the housing and arranged to heat an interior of the housing, a pressure cell positioned in the interior of the housing, and a three-way valve with one inlet fluidly connected to a chamber in the pressure cell and two outlets. The system also includes a gas chromatograph that is fluidly coupled to the chamber in the pressure cell via the three-way valve.

The invention comprises a system for securing an implant to a bone comprising an implant which is affixed to the bone, a grout or bone cement comprising a composition that cures in an exothermic reaction and which is capable of securing the implant to the bone in a cured state, a device which provides access to the grout or bone cement in position on the bone and a tester which measures temperature over time to detect the exothermic reaction so as to determine when the composition reaches cure. The tester comprises a sensor joined to a circuit and to an indicator that emits a signal in response to a current emitted to the circuit by the sensor.

A method includes providing a length of pipeline that has a housing defining a central bore extending the length of the pipe and a space formed within the housing and extending the length of the pipe. At least one condition within the space is continuously monitored within the space to detect in real time if a change in the housing occurs.
