Petroleum products and fat and oil derivatives - Determination of phosphorus content in fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) - Optical emission spectral analysis with inductively coupled plasma (ICP OES); German version EN 16294:2012

Summary

This European Standard specifies an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES) method for the determination of phosphorus content of Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) in the range of 2,5 mg/kg to 8,0 mg/kg. The same methodology may be applied for determination of sulfur. Data gathered during a Round Robin study on sulfur determination were quite scarcely dispersed and the statistical treatment gave a reproducibility of around 14 mg/kg. The method is thus not equipped for measuring at the same levels as for phosphorus.
