Streamlined testing for high-quality SAF production

  • The real challenge
    Producing high-quality SAF demands precise control of sulfur and chlorine to maintain compliance and prevent costly corrosion. Unfortunately, traditional testing methods often lack the speed, precision, and sensitivity needed for routine monitoring, leading to delays and higher operational costs.
  • A smarter solution
    Tailored to SAF production, our MWDXRF and EDXRF analyzers deliver fast, reliable sulfur and chlorine analysis with minimal sample preparation. Results are available in minutes, enabling labs and production teams to verify fuel quality, avoid compliance risks, and keep operations running smoothly.
  • Why it matters
    Accurate elemental analysis is essential for scaling SAF production without compromise. XRF technology helps minimize corrosion risks, reduce testing delays, and verify that every batch meets specifications—so labs and production teams can stay ahead of quality and regulatory demands while protecting valuable infrastructure.

Chlorine Analyzers
Enhance your workflows with advanced XRF chlorine analyzers designed to determine total chlorine in liquid hydrocarbons such as aromatics, distillates, heavy fuels, crude oils, and aqueous solutions. 
Sindie Cl
Multi-Element Analyzers

Our multi-element XRF analyzers deliver rapid, high-precision analysis of sulfur, chlorine, and select metals across a broad measurement range, with models available for different element combinations.

The small footprint, minimal infrastructure requirements, intuitive user interface, analytical performance, and limited user/supplier maintenance of the XOS Sindie+Cl makes it an invaluable tool in our Oil Analysis laboratory. Using the Etnom® Accucells has significantly reduced specimen and chemical usage.
