Abstract: Gas chromatography is used as a collective term, combining both gas-liquid and gas-solid chromatography. This paper concerns both of these terms since both practices are required to present the chemist with a versatile, fast, accurate new tool for the complete analysis of natural gas. When a natural gas sample is placed in a chromatograph column through which an inert carrier gas is flowing, the components tend to separate, under favorable operating conditions, into bands that arrive separately at the exit of the column, where they are measured by a suitable detector (Figure 1). Identification of these components are made solely on exit time i.e., each component has a definite retention time when considering a given set of conditions. It is the intent of this paper to present favorable operating conditions of the chromatograph which will lead to the complete analysis of natural gas.
