PACs Sulfur Express Method Now Published Standard

Quick, accurate sulfur detection inside or outside the laboratory with the Sulfur Express is now a Standard. The Sulfur Express method is now published, and embodied in ASTM D7620 - Standard Test Method for Determination of Total Sulfur in Liquid Hydrocarbon Based Fuels by Continuous Injection, Air Oxidation and Ultraviolet Fluorescence Detection. PAC is a leading global provider of advanced analytical instruments for laboratories and online process applications primarily to the petroleum and petrochemical industries.

D7620 is a win-win for fuel blenders and processors, putting faster, more accurate, more efficient sulfur detection in a portable analyzer in the hands of those who need it most, and for whom fuel quality is critical. The method is different from previously-used D5453 because it does not require the use of compressed gasses for oxidation, enhancing the portability of the analyzer. Both the process and the analyzer are ideal for portable applications such as mobile labs and useful for screening applications when user does not want to send a sample to a lab for analysis. This means greater flexibility and efficiency.
