Direct Elemental Analysis of Biodiesel by 7500ce ICP-MS with ORS

Abstract:   A simple and sensitive method is described for the measurement of multiple trace elements in a range of biofuels using an Agilent 7500ce inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) featuring the Octopole Reaction System (ORS). Each sample was analyzed directly following a simple dilution in kerosene. The ORS effectively removes matrix and plasma-based spectral interferences to allow measurement of all important analytes, including sodium, potassium, lead, vanadium, and sulfur, at levels lower than those possible by ICP-optical emission spectroscopy OES)._
