Petroleum products - Determination of organic halogen content - Oxidative microcoulometric method EN 14077:2003

Publication date:   Jul 30, 2004

Scope

The method is directly applicable to the determination of low concentrations (2 mg/kg to 100 mg/kg) of organic halogen in petroleum products such as gasolines, middle distillates and residual fuels. Except for fluorine (F); the organic halogens chlorine (C), bromine (Br) and iodine (J) that may be present in the sample are determined quantitatively. The halogen is reported as the equivalent number of chloride ions. A procedure is described for the removal of inorganic halides from residual fluids.
