High-Precision Oxygenates Analysis in Gasoline
Oxygenated components such as alcohols and ethers are commonly added to gasoline to improve octane rating and reduce engine knocking. Because these additives directly affect fuel performance and emissions, their concentration is strictly regulated. Accurate and reproducible analysis of oxygenates is therefore essential to ensure commercial gasoline quality and regulatory compliance.
The GAS Oxygenates Analyser provides a proven GC-based solution for the determination of oxygenated compounds in liquid gasoline samples according to ASTM D4815 and EN 13132. Built on robust Thermo Trace 1600 GC technology, the analysers deliver reliable separation, excellent repeatability, and long-term stability. The Oxygenates Analyser can be combined with other methods in a single instrument, maximising efficiency while minimising footprint and cost.
