Determining Aromatics in Finished Gasoline: ASTM Method D 5580

Abstract: An Agilent 6890 Series gas chromatography system, including the Agilent ChemStation and automatic liquid sampler, was optimized to perform aromatics analysis according to ASTM Method D 5580-94. This standard method is for the analysis of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, p/m-xylene, o-xylene (BTEX), C 9 + aromatics, and total aromatics in finished gasolines and some gasoline-related streams. A description of a guaranteed analyzer for D 5580 is given, with which analysis through full report takes approximately 45 minutes. The configuration, conditions, and sample chromatograms are presented.
