Particulate Matter Index (PMI) indicates how fuel quality contributes to particle number emissions in automobiles. Because gasoline is complex, GC-FID detailed hydrocarbon analysis (DHA) is used to separate and quantify individual compounds, followed by calculation of their contributions to the PMI. DHA GC run time and post-processing data review can be lengthy.Fill out the form below to access VUV Analytic’s Knowledge Base.
