1. 1 AC Reformulyzer Course AC Analytical Controls January 2001

2. 2 AC Reformulyzer Determining Gasoline Specifications Efficiently

3. 3 AC Reformulyzer Hydrocarbon type/ Carbon number analysis Dedicated to Gasoline and Gasoline-related streams Multi-dimensional analysis system Incorporates ASTM, DIN and IP standard test methods

4. 4 AC Reformulyzer Hydrocarbon type analysis of finished gasoline and feedstocks

5. 5 AC Reformulyzer multi-column GC method separates hydrocarbon groups: paraffins, isoparaffins, naphthenes, oxygenates, aromatics and olefins in finished gasoline and gasoline related streams, such as reformate, FCC naphtha, isomerate and alkylate incorporates standard test methods ASTM D 6293 and Draft method DIN 51448-2

6. 6 AC Reformulyzer Characterizes total composition of finished gasoline and blending stocks in one analysis Conducting one analysis rather than several reduces potential human bias and results in a more cost effective lab
