Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Testing (PAH)

Testing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in fuels, distillates and hydrocarbon feed-stocks.

Fuels, middle distillates, heavy fuel oil, residues and other hydrocarbons are tested by Intertek for aromatic content and poly-nuclear aromatic content. Laboratory analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) samples includes supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), liquid chromatography (LC) and Heavy Distillates Analyzer (HDA).

PAHs analytical techniques:

• ASTM D-5186, determination of the aromatic content and polynuclear aromatics content
• Aromatic Content of Diesel Fuels and Aviation Turbine Fuels
• Aromatic branch chain analysis of residual fuels, VGOs, etc. boiling above 650 F
• Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons analysis is available through the global Intertek laboratory network.

PAH testing locations:

• California Chemical and Petroleum Testing (Northern)
• California Petroleum and Chemical Testing (Southern)
• Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA
• Sunbury England UK
