GC/MS is useful in identifying specific organic constituents in a foulant mass. GC utilizes a vaporized sample which is carried by an inert gas through a column which separates the sample components. Each component is then eluted from the column, through a detector and is identified. MS is then used to isolate constituents into molecular ions and other fragments. The fragments are then passed through an electric and/or magnetic field that separate them according to their mass-to-charge ratio to identify the components.
