The Polyarc is the future of FID. It is to carbon as the SCD is to sulfur without the complexity.

I've been working in the oil and gas field for the past 5 years and I think the Polyarc^® reactor will change the industry in the near future. I can see this technology improving many of the current ASTM test methods used in this field.

Solves a problem that is as old as GC.

Judge The Analytical Scientist Innovation Award 2015

The Polyarc^® reactor is an exciting piece of lab equipment that, in practice, should be installed on every GC to eliminate the need for tedious calibrations and to facilitate closure of carbon balances when unknown species are detected. I am very encouraged by the results and recommend the product.
