Abstract:
For more than 40 years, Agilent has played a leadership role in ASTM International, the standards body for the energy and chemical industries. ASTM D8322 is a new test method for elemental analyses in crude and fuel oil, streamlining the determination of iron, nickel, vanadium, sulfur, calcium, sodium, potassium, aluminum, silicon, and zinc into one test method. D8322 synchronizes the crude and fuel oil analysis requirements using microwave plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (MP-AES). The MP-AES is proven, productive, and cost-effective, providing a safer one instrument analysis for all needed elements in crude and fuel oils. In addition, it operates without flammable gases and can be used without an ongoing gas supply. Key Learning:
• Discover how to streamline your elemental crude oil and residual fuel analysis using one simple technique
• Find out how you can reduce your sample preparation requirements
• See how you can improve safety by removing flames and flammable gases out of your petrochemical lab
• Learn you can reduce costs when measuring Fe, Ni, V, S, Al, Ca, K, Na, Si, and Zn in a crude oils and residual fuels
