FTIR analysis is used to identify organic compounds in membrane foulant samples by measuring vibrations of functional groups and highly polar bonds. Determining these frequencies allows identification of the samples’ chemical characteristics, since chemical functional groups are known to absorb light at specific frequencies. An infrared absorbance spectrum is produced creating a “fingerprint” from the vibrational features of the sample components. The spectrum is compared to a 75,000 sample spectral library and subject to spectral interpretation. For more information on our fourier transform infrared capabilities, please contact us. |
