A cyclic closed-loop gas chromatrograph, comprising a column, a thermal conductivity detector, and a peristaltic circulating pump, together with valves for sample pick-up and carrier gas admission, is described. Injected samples could be recycled many times, providing very long effective column lengths, and separations were markedly better than on a single-pass column of equivalent length. Separation of two components, and peak broadening with single components, were measured over many successive cycles for a variety of samples, carrier gases, and conditions. The use of the cyclic chromatograph for testing columns and for studying basic processes in gas chromatography is demonstrated and discussed.

A gas chromatographic procedure for measuring water in fermented feeds was developed and evaluated. The method involves extracting the water with alcohol followed by the separation of the water and alcohol with a Porapak QS column in a gas chromatograph equipped with a thermal conductivity detector. Linear responses were obtained when the ratios of the peak area of water to alcohol were plotted against the weight ratios of water to alcohol (mg/g). The method has the advantage of being very fast, and is as accurate as a chemical method used for water determination.
