An analysis device having a liquid chromatograph prevents a plurality of streams from being unusable at the same time Whether a usable stream is 0 or not among streams 1, 2, and 3 is determined. In a case where none of the streams is usable, the control unit skips a sample introduction in the cycle; and where there is one usable stream in the cycle, the stream is used. In a case where there are multiple streams that are usable in the cycle, and there are multiple streams of which the remaining number of uses of a separation column is the minimum, the stream having the smallest stream number is used; and where there is one stream of which the remaining number of uses of a separation column is the minimum, the stream to which the separation column having the minimum remaining number of uses is connected and used.

A method for determining a state of a fluidic system can include measuring back pressures in the fluidic system at different times and determining a state of the fluidic system. The determination is based on at least the measured back pressures and on additional status information indicative of at least one status of the fluidic system at at least one of the different times.

A gas sampler includes a connection portion connectable to an introduction piping connected to a sample tank, a switching valve for switching a connection state between the connection portion and a sample loop, a pump, and a control device. A buffer flow path between the sample loop and the pump is configured to be selectively connectable to any one of a plurality of buffer tanks different in volume. A volume of the buffer flow path is greater than a volume of the introduction piping by a predetermined amount. The control device operates the pump in a state in which the switching valve is in a closed state to set an inside of the buffer flow path to a negative pressure, and thereafter stops the pump and make the switching valve in an open state to fill the sample loop with a sample gas by using the negative pressure of the buffer flow path.

A suppressor device for an ion chromatograph is provided between a separation column and a detector of an ion chromatograph. An electrodialysis suppressor includes a first flow path to which an eluent flowing from the separation column is supplied, a second flow path to which a regeneration liquid is supplied, an ion exchange membrane provided between the first flow path and the second flow path and an electrode to which a voltage is applied. A power supply circuit that applies a voltage to the electrode is turned off in a case in which an eluent is not supplied to the first flow path of the electrodialysis suppressor.

The present technology generally relates to devices, systems and methods for providing robust sealing between surfaces in a pressurized system, such as a chromatography system. In particular, the devices, systems and methods relate to compliant and resilient parts that can be reused and/or reinstalled while providing a pressure tight sealing surface even within a high pressure environment (e.g., 1000 psi or greater).

Apparatus and methods for determining a concentration of one or more halogen-containing ions in a sample, including but not limited to: soils, aquifers, groundwater, drinking water, soil, tissue, blood, sewage sludge, compost, and landfill leachate, Particularly, the apparatus and processes are used for the destruction of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), per- and polyfluorocarbons (PFCs), pesticides, munitions, 1,4-dioxane, pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and others. High destruction efficiencies of these substances is desirable for determination of compliance with government regulations. Apparatus include batch- and continuous-type reactor systems. Processes include supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) and hydrothermal alkaline treatments (HALT).
