Near-infrared spectroscopy for the analysis of petrochemicals
Summary
In the petrochemical industry, strict quality assurance and quality control are important to expose out-of-spec products. At the same time, cost pressure and a shortage of qualified personnel make testing and quality control of petrochemicals more challenging. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an established analytical method used in various industries. NIRS offers significant benefits in terms of speed, ease of use, cost reduction, and the ability to measure multiple parameters simultaneously without the need for sample preparation. Results are obtained in just 30 seconds without the need for any chemicals or destruction of the sample.
Our eBook serves as a valuable resource for companies looking to improve their quality control processes and reduce costs through the implementation of this advanced analytical technique. The following topics are covered within:
- the basic principles of NIRS and where it can be used within the petrochemical industry
- the implementation of NIRS in laboratory workflows according to ASTM D6122 and ASTM D8340
- application examples of NIRS in the petrochemical industry, e.g., for gasoline, diesel, or lubricants
