Isogeochemers,

We are developing an automatic sample carousel to replace the manual
carbonate prep system sold by UIC for their coulometer (to do % carbonate
determination).

So far we have obtained  numbers like 99.6 +/- 0.11% for  reagent grade
CaCO3,  running a sample every 5 minutes.

 Is there anybody out there who might be interested in such a system?
