Rapid chromatographic procedure for characterizing hydrocarbons in synthetic fuel naphtha / A.E. George, G.T. Smiley and H. Sawatzky.: M38-13/79-17E-PDF

"The need for a rapid method to determine the hydrocarbon component composition of full range naphtha in synthetic fuels has been evident since Energy Research Laboratories started pilot plant investigations of hydrocracking. Fast characterization of products is needed to monitor the effect of altering process conditions to meet certain product quality requirements. A previously reported procedure for this purpose involved distillation of the light oil product followed by separation of the saturated, olefinic and aromatic hydrocarbon fractions on a micropreparative silica column using the fluorescent indicator adsorption (FIA) principle. A gas chromatography-quadrupole mass spectrometric system was employed for component identification. This report describes further development and improvement of the procedure"--Introd., p. 1.
