Determination of Inspection Parameters of Diesel Fuels

  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

Abstract

A method is developed for determining the inspection parameters of diesel fuels using gas chromatography. After one measurement which lasts on the order of 140 min, it is possible to determine the n–paraffin content, distillation curve, cetane number, density, and flash point of a sample. The proposed method can be used by any manufacturers, suppliers, refiners, and purchasers of crude oil cuts or petroleum products and control laboratories and research organizations.
