Additional Gasoline Parameters Measured with Process Instruments Raman
In addition to Octane, Butane, and ethanol measurements, a PI-200 can accurately measure a number of additional parameters used in both gasoline blending, as well as component rundown lines.
Parameters
Benzene
Toluene
Total aromatics
Total olefins
