Kjeldahl Distillation Unit

Kjeldahl Distillation Unit is a scientific Instruments used to perform nitrogen analysis and protein determination according to Kjeldahl method in food&feed industry and other applications in environmental and chemical industries after having digested the sample accurately.

Kjeldahl analysis method

Add distilled / deionized water to the digested sample
This dilutes the sample
In this way its easier to detect all the ammonia
Separate the nitrogen from the digested mixture by steam distilling
Extracts ammonia from the alkaline solution
Raise the pH of the digested mixture using sodium hydroxide
Converts NH4+ (in solid format) into NH3 (gaseous)
This will be detected with titration
Trap the distilled vapors in a dedicated solution of boric acid
Traps all the nitrogen, eliminating the risk of loss
