Fuel refiners all around the globe can choose many methods to test and certify gasoline. One of those method options is ASTM D8071 “Standard Test Method for Determination of Hydrocarbon Group Types and Select Hydrocarbon and Oxygenate Compounds in Automotive Spark-Ignition Engine Fuel Using Gas Chromatography with Vacuum Ultraviolet Absorption Spectroscopy Detection (GC-VUV)”.
This webinar will discuss in depth ASTM D8071, on the VUV Analyzer™ Platform for Fuels D8071 approvals and use in Proficiency Cross Check Programs will be presented. ASTM D8071 has EPA equivalency and this webinar will go into further detail on EPA streamlining.
