Determination of individual sulfur-containing compounds in liquid hydrocarbon raw materials and their processing products by gas chromatography

Abstract

The publications dedicated to the determination of individual sulfur-containing compounds in liquid hydrocarbon raw materials and their processing products by gas chromatography are summarized. In the analysis of petroleum raw materials, the preliminary separation of sulfur-containing compounds and a hydrocarbon matrix is usually performed. In the analysis of liquid oil refining products and gas condensate, the direct determination of individual sulfur-containing compounds can be frequently conducted. The use of currently available sulfur-selective chemiluminescence and atomic emission detectors in combination with nonpolar or slightly polar capillary columns and also two-dimensional chromatography is the most promising.
