Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

A portable gas chromatograph is a compact analytical instrument used to separate and analyze the components of a gas sample. It works on the principle of gas chromatography, where the sample is vaporized and injected into a column, which separates the different components based on their chemical properties. The separated components are then detected and quantified, providing valuable information about the composition of the gas sample.
