Sulfur Compound Testing in Petroleum Products
Testing and analysis of sulfur compounds in petroleum and refined products.
Intertek petroleum laboratories identify and quantify sulfur compounds in crude oil, petroleum feeds, and refined petroleum products. Sulfur compounds occur in various types and quantities in hydrocarbon feedstocks and refined products, including gasoline, diesel and many other fuels and materials.
Using ASTM D-5623 and other test methods, Intertek labs speciate sulfur compounds found in petroleum liquids, helping clients trouble-shoot sulfur related problems and improve quality and process control. Sulfur speciation provides useful data for mitigating sulfur compound problem in refined products, providing greater insight than measuring total sulfur content alone.
