Abstract:

Analysis of sulfur compounds in diesel fuel ensures product compliance and protects refining infrastructure. The allowable concentration of sulfur in diesel fuels has been decreasing over time to comply with fuels and environmental regulations. This may necessitate use of sensitive and selective modes of analysis and detection, such as GC-SCD.

For the seven compounds tested, %RSD average 2.41, relative response factors ranged from 75-120, and recoveries ranged from 80-110%, This data presented here demonstrate the use of Shimadzu’s SCD-2030 for accurate, repeatable, and equimolar analysis of sulfur compounds in diesel fuel.
