Magritek 1T

This novel very compact benchtop NMR spectrometer provides chemical content analysis similar to high-field NMR spectrometers, and thus allows for the elucidation of molecular structure and quantification of chemical concentrations across a large range of samples. An important focus is the composition of discharge water from oil and gas operations. Importantly, this system is also uniquely fitted with a magnetic field gradient allowing unambiguous determination of oil and water diffusion and hence measurement of emulsion droplet size distributions. This is readily applied to opaque samples such as water-in-crude oil emulsions.
