Analysis of coals for potential petroleum-related content is of immense significance for fuel evaluation. Most of the traditional methodologies for the determination of coals are based on solvent extraction, filtration, and concentration. These techniques are cumbersome, time-consuming, and suffer from analyst-to-analyst variability while producing data of limited value. Today, analytical...

Ionic liquid-based stationary phases have had a profound effect on GC, given their high polarity and thermal stability. Several new ionic liquids have been synthesized and stability tested. The mechanism of the thermal decomposition has been studied and will be discussed. New stationary phase selectivities will be considered as well....

Barrier discharge ionization detection for gas chromatography (GC-BID) is a novel universal detector capable of detection of nearly any volatile analyte with the exception of helium and neon. Traditional analyses of hydrocarbons and associated gases are commonly carried out by flame ionization detection (FID) and thermal conductivity detection (TCD), with...
