Total Carbon & Nitrogen

Combustion (Dumas) Analyzer

Dumas Analyzer

Method Description

Total carbon and nitrogen analysis measures the complete elemental content of these essential nutrients in samples. This testing is important for soil analysis, compost quality assessment, and understanding the nutritional content of organic materials. The carbon to nitrogen ratio is particularly critical for composting operations and soil health assessment, as it affects decomposition rates and nutrient availability.
