We continue to review the standards that entered into force for the first time and were introduced on 1st of July 2020.
GOST 34603-2019, Spark-ignition engine fuels. Determination of benzene by mid infrared spectroscopy method.
The document presents a fast, simple and inexpensive method for determination of benzene in fuels for spark-ignition engines in the range from 0.1 to 0.5 percent of the volume: the infrared beam of the detector is passed through the fuel sample, the response of which is converted into the concentration of benzene using multi-dimensional mathematical analysis.
Benzene - a toxic compound, the concentration of which is limited by the environmental authorities to produce less toxic gasoline.
