ASTM STP 1468
Twenty-three peer-reviewed papers examine the latest information on the elemental analysis of fuels and lubricants. Six sections cover:
Overview-discusses total quality management practices advocated for obtaining a perfect analysis, including proper staff training, sampling, calibration and quality control practices.
Atomic Spectroscopy-focuses on various aspects of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES), mass spectrometry, and isotope dilution mass spectrometry.
X-Ray Spectroscopy-deals with X-ray fluorescence (XRF), including the determination of sulfur in gasoline and diesel, high-power and low-power wavelength dispersive x-ray fluorescence (WDXRFs), and bench top energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF).
Sulfur Analysis-examines the analyses of low levels of sulfur in petroleum products, particularly gasoline, reformulated gasoline, and diesel; and applications of on-line technology for sulfur determination in fuels.
Mercury Determination-addresses concerns regarding the mercury content of crude oils and its emission through the petroleum refining process.
Other Heteroatoms-discusses the use of atomic emission detection using gas chromatography (AED-GS) to determine elements such as carbon, nitrogen, etc., and much more.
