For refiners and petrochemical facilities, precise and rapid product composition analysis offers a significant competitive edge in the current volatile market. The hydrocarbon group type composition of naphthas and gasoline serves as a crucial metric for both product quality and process management.
Globally, laboratories employ various techniques, frequently termed PIONA analysis, to ascertain this group type composition. This presents an exceptionally difficult challenge, given the vast diversity and intricacy of sample matrices.
The Reformulyzer M4 represents the global benchmark for EN ISO 22854 and ASTM D6839. It adheres completely to prominent standard test methodologies including ASTM D6839, EN ISO 22854, ASTM D5443, IP 566, SH/T 0741, and GB/T 28768-2012.
EN 228 incorporates EN ISO 22854 (Multidimensional GC, Reformulyzer) as the reference method for assessing hydrocarbon content (Olefins and Aromatics), benzene, oxygenate, and oxygen levels. The Reformulyzer superseded EN15553 (FIA) for hydrocarbon content determination and EN1601 for oxygenate analysis.
The AC Reformulyzer is the only available technology capable of delivering precise, dependable group-type composition.
Through its proprietary, industry-leading multidimensional separation methodology, combined with straightforward and robust detection technology, exceptionally accurate results are achieved regardless of the sample matrix. User-friendly, specialized Reformulyzer software enables analysts and operators to initiate analyses with minimal clicks and continuously produce trustworthy data.
