The flame ionization detector (FID) is the most widely used detector because of its simplicity, large linear range (from 0.1 ppm to 100%), and general response to carbon.
Polyarc
A Microreactor for Gas Chromatography
The Polyarc system has a catalytic microreactor that enhances new and existing gas chromatographs (GCs) with flame ionization detectors (FIDs) by converting all organic compounds to methane molecules prior to their detection by the FID, therefore converting the FID into a quantitative carbon detector (QCD). In doing so, the Polyarc system reduces the need to perform time-consuming calibrations by creating a uniform detector response, enabling truly universal carbon detection.
