What Types of Automated Purification Systems Exist?
There are several types of automated purification systems, each suited to different applications:
1. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC): Ideal for separating complex mixtures, commonly used in pharmaceuticals and biochemistry. 2. Gas Chromatography (GC): Used for volatile compounds, often employed in environmental analysis and petrochemicals. 3. Solid Phase Extraction (SPE): Suitable for purifying samples from large volumes of liquid. 4. Automated Filtration Systems: Used to remove particulates from solutions, frequently applied in water treatment and chemical synthesis.
