Determination of Trace Nitrogen Contents in Different Types of Fuels and Fuel Blends According to ASTM D4629 resp. DIN 51444 Application Note · compEAct N

Challenge

  • Fast and easy analysis of widely varying nitrogen contents in different types of diesel fuel according to industry standards.

Solution

  • Reliable results, independent of TN concentration or digestion characteristics, in very short time using compEAct N and the LS 2 liquids sampler.

Introduction

Diesel is a mixture of various hydrocarbons that is produced during the fractionated distillation of crude oil. Its boiling interval is in the range of 150 to 390° C. Diesel is used mainly as fuel for automobiles. It can contain traces of organically bound chlorine, sulfur and nitrogen originating either from natural sources or from additives. During combustion of the fuel, these compounds form environmental pollutants. As these pollutants are hazardous to the human health and the environment, their content (N, S, Cl) should be kept as small as possible. To ensure the product quality and adhere to legal limit values a permanent quality control is essential.

The compEAct N is an analysis system which was specifically optimized for the fast and trouble-free determination of nitrogen contents in a wide concentration range. Combining catalyst-free high-temperature combustion and highly sensitive HiPerSens® detection it allows the detection of nitrogen at concentrations ranging from 15 µg/l up to 10,000 mg/l with one and the same device.
