High-Precision Diesel Fuel Marker Analysis
Fiscal fuel markers play a crucial role in distinguishing tax-rebated fuels from regular diesel and supporting government fuel fraud prevention programs. The GAS Diesel Fuel Marker Analyser provides a robust and fully validated solution for the analysis of ACCUTRACE™ Plus (butoxybenzene / butyl phenyl ether) in diesel fuel.
Using advanced two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (2D-GC/MS), the analyser delivers high selectivity and sensitivity in complex diesel matrices. The system achieves reliable quantification well below the required 190 ppb LOQ, while maintaining excellent linearity and repeatability. Designed for routine laboratory operation, the analyser combines analytical performance with long-term robustness and minimal maintenance.
Applications
- Fiscal Fuel Marker Verification
Detect and quantify ACCUTRACE™ Plus in diesel to distinguish tax-rebated fuels from standard diesel products. - Fuel Fraud Detection and Enforcement
Support governmental and regulatory fuel fraud prevention programs with validated, trace-level marker analysis. - Customs and Regulatory Laboratories
Perform compliant diesel marker testing with reproducible results and automated data handling. - Quality Control in Fuel Distribution
Verify correct marker concentration throughout the fuel supply chain to ensure compliance and traceability. - Forensic Fuel Investigation
Identify dilution, adulteration, or illegal blending of diesel fuels using selective 2D-GC/MS methodology.
Benefits
- Highly Selective 2D-GC/MS Method
Two-dimensional separation combined with MS detection ensures accurate marker identification in complex diesel matrices. - Low Detection Limits and Wide Dynamic Range
Achieve detection limits below 50 ppb with linearity across more than five decades (R² = 0.9999). - Protected MS Source via Heartcut & Backflush
Deans switching, heartcut, and backflush prevent contamination of the MS ion source, ensuring long-term stability. - Minimal Sample Preparation
Direct diesel injection eliminates time-consuming sample preparation and improves laboratory throughput. - Proven, Robust Configuration
Based on Thermo TRACE GC 1600 and ISQ 7610 MS, delivering reliable performance for routine and regulatory analysis.
