Abstract:
The unavailability of fluorescence dye has impacted the widely used D1319 method for determining total aromatics in reformulated gasoline. To remain in compliance with EPA regulations, many labs are considering the more complex D5769 GC/MS method for total aromatics analysis. This presentation will offer best practices for setting up, optimizing, and running this method on a new, cost effective GC/MS system. Data analysis approaches will also be discussed with emphasis on a new system for automated reporting of results.
