Summary
A rapid and easy gas chromatographic method is proposed for the determination of condensate content in monoethanolamine employed in the sweetening process of natural gas in the petroleum industry. This method covers a wide range of heavy hydrocarbons (condensate) content by using a short conventational column. A comparative study has been carried out and the advantages of the gas chromatographic technique have been demonstrated.
