Sample holder for hydrous pyrolysis operations

摘要

A sample holder for use in hydrous pyrolysis operations has a cylindrical member defining an axial throughbore with like discs of fluid permeable material at each end. One disc is fixed in the cylindrical member and the other removably attached for insertion of a sample into the holder. The holder has at least one end shaped so as to prevent sealing from occurring when the holder is placed in a test chamber.
