Abstract:
Traditionally laboratories interested in analyzing and reporting the saturate, aromatic, polyaromatic (diaromatic and tri+ aromatic), and FAME content across conventional, renewable, and synthetic diesel fuels would need to use multiple time-consuming and complex analytical techniques and methods. With the introduction of ASTM D8368 running on the VUV Analyzer™ for Fuels laboratories can now analyze low total aromatic middle distillate streams such as HVO’s and B1 to B20 biodiesel blends from numerous feedstocks as well as high aromatic products such as light cycle oils or specialty solvents using GC-VUV and a single method.
