Abstract:
This presentation will review techniques for optimization of D86 distillation. Optimization is important for consistent distillation analysis of unique or contaminated samples. This session will highlight automated optimization parameters and discuss the applicability and outcomes of applying each technique. With a better understanding of how method optimization affects distillation results, attendees will leave with confidence in knowing when to use automated or manual optimization and. The discussion will also include which parameters can be optimized while still complying with D86 requirements and best practices for difficult samples.
Attendees will gain insights into leveraging optimization strategies to elevate the overall performance of automated D86 distillation processes in petroleum testing.
