Determination of Chemical Species in Marine Fuel Oil in accordance with ASTM D 7845 by GC-MS

 

Fuel oil, also known as marine fuel oil, is a fraction obtained through petroleum distillation. Despite its widespread use in marine fuel pumps, contamination with compounds such as phenols has caused fuel pump malfunctions in recent years. ASTM D7845 provides standardized analytical methods for 30 aromatic and oxygenated compounds in marine fuel oil. In this article, the quantitation of aromatics and oxygenates in marine fuel oil was conducted as per ASTM D7845 using a Shimadzu GCMS-QP™2020 NX.
