Abstract:

Laboratories conducting elemental analyses of petroleum products refer to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) method D8110-17 which describes a procedure for the determination of a few trace elements in light and middle distillate petroleum products using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). However, there are certain challenges that come with analyzing petroleum products. Carbon-based spectral interferences on several analytes of interest, for example, can lead to false analytical results. This webinar will review key ICP-MS technological advancements that make it easy to overcome these common challenges and present an analytical method for the rapid and accurate measurement of metals.
