Gasoline Additive to Eliminate Uncertainty in Fuel Blends is Featured in New White Paper

A new White Paper published by Wilks Enterprise (USA) presents the advantages and cost savings for on-site analysis with a portable mid-infrared based analyser, such as the InfraCal Ethanol Blend Analyser, to help fuel blenders quickly flag out-of-spec product and ensure the final blend meets specifications.

This analysis is important as the use of ethanol as a gasoline additive has increased dramatically over the past few years and will likely continue to increase. For fuel blenders, this means an added challenge to avoid an incorrect blend that could lead to regulatory fines, loss of customer confidence and damage to equipment.

Portable infrared analysers offer a simple, accurate and low cost solution to on-site blend testing at locations such as the blending rack. The resulting costs of an incorrect blend can far out way the modest cost of an on-site ethanol blend analyser. With many already in use at petroleum terminals and by regulatory agencies, the InfraCal Ethanol Blend Analyser has proven to be a reliable tool to ensure blend accuracy.
