Abstract

This application note describes the quantitative
determination of oxygenates, Paraffins, naphthenes and
aromatics (O-PONA) in spark ignition fuels by the multidimensional
gas chromatography separation approach
utilized in the Bruker PIONA+™ GC analysis system.
The Bruker PIONA+ Analyzer is a comprehensive GC
system that offers the ability to characterize and quantify
components in a variety of spark ignition fuels according
to an array of industry standard method protocols. The
system can be operated in one of multiple method “modes”
depending on the analysis requirement of a given stream
type. For this particular application, the system was set up
to characterize the O-PONA content of spark ignition fuels.
