Which type of gas chromatography is most useful for the separation and analysis of gases like CH4 and CO2?

Gas liquid chromatography (GLC)

Learn the fundamentals of gas chromatography, a technique used to separate volatile substances in gaseous mixtures. Understand the process of injecting a sample into the gas chromatograph and the role of the mobile phase in moving through a column. Explore the interaction of sample components with the stationary phase as the carrier gas flows through the column.
