1. Simultaneous Analysis of H 2, O2 , N2 , CH4, and CO, with
Argon Carrier
As shown in Table 1, H2 is sensed at a far higher sen-
sitivity compared with the other compounds, when argon is
used as the carrier gas. Methane is detected at the next
highest sensitivity and O2, N2 , and CO are sensed at almost
equal sensitivities. . Operational Conditions

When satisfactory separation cannot be achieved with column temperature kept at, or above, the room temperature, the cryogenic
work technique is often used. Examples are given in Chapters 6, 7, 8, and 9.

One of the popular methods to analyze CO and CO2 of a concentration below the detection limit of TCD is to connect a reaction tube
after the GC column and reduce CO and CO2 into CH4, which is then detected at a high sensitivity by an FID. Examples are given in
Chapters 11 and 12.
