Our laboratory is equipped with an extensive list of fuel characterization and analysis equipment. Most essential fuel characterization and analysis can be conducted in-house. Some of the examples include:
- Elemental analysis of coal and other fuel
- Proximate analysis of coal and other fuel
- Chlorine content measurement
- Sulfur content measurement
- Ash fusion characteristics
- Heating value measurement
- Total organic carbon analysis
- Boiling range determination of liquid fuel
- Molecular identification
- GC/MS analysis
- Gas composition analysis
- Syngas characterization
- Measurement of biodiesel properties
- Measurement of cold flow properties of liquid fuels
- Many of ASTM fuel analysis/characterization standardized tests
Dr. Lee and his former graduate student coauthored and updated a comprehensive article on “Fuel Analysis, Regulatory Specifications for Petroleum and Liquid Fossil Fuels Analysis” and published in Encyclopedia in Analytical Chemistry (EAC).
