The Steam Distillation Units FoodALYT D are small ‘all-rounders’ in sample preparation. With these devices, proteins, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, volatile acids, ethanol, formaldehyde, etc. can be measured in different samples. A typical field of application is the treatment of subsequent Kjeldahl digestion, by distilling ammonia in an acid receiver. Furthermore, volatile preservatives in canned fish or meat salads are distilled to subsequently carry out a photometric determination. Also steam distillation is used to separate alcohols in spirits (e.g. egg or cream liqueurs) for later quantitative analysis. The unique versatility of the FoodALYT D units are underlined by its additional use in water- and environmental chemistry for the determination of volatile organic acids (e. g. sewage sludge).

With FoodALYT we provide experienced and praticable systems – made in Germany – with a balanced cost-benefit ratio. All products are CE conform and certified.
