Chemical Industry

Chemical manufacturing and process chemistry involve a broad spectrum of reactive, toxic, and flammable gases. Accurate volumetric gas measurement and multi-component gas analysis are essential for process control, safety, and research across the entire value chain.

Why RITTER Technology Matters

Volumetric Gas Measurement for Chemical Processes

RITTER Drum-type Gas Meters and MGC units are well-suited for:

  • Precise gas flow measurement in lab and pilot reactors
  • Calibration reference for inline process flow meters
  • Yield analysis in catalytic and synthesis reactions
  • Monitoring of gas evolution in batch and continuous processes

Multi-Component Detection via »MultiGas« Systems (NDIR/NDUV)

RITTER »MultiGas« tabletop analyzers enable simultaneous detection of key process and safety-relevant gases, including:

  • CO₂
  • CO
  • NH₃
  • H₂S
  • SO₂ (depending on module)
RITTER supplies the laboratory equipment and Wi.Tec the sensor technology, combined to create exclusive RITTER »MultiGas« solutions.

Typical Applications

  • Catalytic reaction gas yield measurements
  • Fermentation and bioprocess off-gas monitoring
  • Ammonia synthesis and cracking studies
  • Flue gas and effluent analysis for regulatory compliance
  • Corrosive and specialty gas handling in R&D environments

Impact for Chemical Engineers & Researchers

✔ Drift-free, absolute volumetric readings — no recalibration in field
✔ Safe handling of aggressive and reactive gases
✔ Simultaneous multi-component gas identification
✔ Traceable measurement data for process documentation and scale-up
✔ Compact lab footprint for bench-scale and pilot studies
