Liquid petroleum products - Determination of fatty methyl ester (FAME) content in middle distillates - Infrared spectrometrymethod
This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) content in diesel fuel or domestic heating fuel by mid infrared spectrometry, which applies to FAME contents of the two measurement ranges as follows: range A: for FAME contents ranging from approx. 0,05 % (V/V) to approx. 3 % (V/V); range B: for FAME contents ranging from approx. 3 % (V/V) to approx. 20 % (V/V). Principally, higher FAME contents can also be analyzed if diluted; however, no precision data for results outside the specified range is available at present. This test method was verified to be applicable to samples which contain FAME conforming to EN 14214 or EN 14213. Reliable quantitative results are obtained only if the samples do not contain any significant amounts of other interfering components, especially esters and other carbonyl compounds which possess absorption bands in the spectral region used for quantification of FAME. If such interfering components are present, this test method is expected to produce higher values.
Flüssige Mineralölprodukte - Bestimmung von Fettsäure Methylester (FAME) in Mitteldestillaten - Infrarotspektrometrisches Verfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung des Gehaltes von Fettsäuremethylestern
(FAME, en: Fatty Acid Methyl Esters) in Dieselkraftstoff oder Heizöl mit Hilfe der Infrarotspektrometrie im
mittleren Infrarotbereich fest, und zwar für FAME-Gehalte in den beiden folgenden Messbereichen:
⎯ Messbereich A: für FAME-Gehalte von etwa 0,05 % (V/V) bis etwa 3 % (V/V);
⎯ Messbereich B: für FAME-Gehalte von etwa 3 % (V/V) bis etwa 20 % (V/V).
Höhere FAME-Gehalte können vom Grundsatz her ebenfalls nach entsprechender Verdünnung analysiert
werden, jedoch enthält diese Norm gegenwärtig keine Präzisionsangaben für nicht in den genannten
Messbereichen liegende Ergebnisse.
Das Prüfverfahren ist anwendbar auf Proben, für die das enthaltene FAME den Anforderungsnormen
EN 14214 bzw. EN 14213 entspricht. Zuverlässige Ergebnisse können nur dann erhalten werden, wenn die
Proben keine signifikanten Anteile an anderen Komponenten enthalten, die die Bestimmung stören können.
Insbesondere gilt dies für Ester und andere Carbonylverbindungen, die ebenfalls starke Absorptionsbanden
im für die FAME-Bestimmung benutzten Spektralbereich aufweisen. Wenn solche Störkomponenten
vorhanden sind, wird dieses Prüfverfahren erwartungsgemäß zu hohe FAME-Gehalte ausweisen.
ANMERKUNG 1 Für die Zwecke dieses Dokuments wird zur Angabe des Volumenanteils ϕ einer Substanz der
Ausdruck „% (V/V)“ verwendet.
ANMERKUNG 2 Für die Umrechnung des FAME-Gehaltes von „g FAME je Liter“ in „% (V/V)“ wird eine mittlere feste
Dichte für FAME von 883,0 kg/m3 verwendet.
WARNUNG — Die Anwendung dieses Verfahrens kann den Einsatz gefährlicher Stoffe, Arbeitsgänge
und Geräte mit sich bringen. Diese Norm gibt nicht vor, alle mit ihrer Anwendung verbundenen Sicherheitsprobleme
anzusprechen. Der Anwender dieser Norm ist dafür verantwortlich, vorher angemessene
Maßnahmen hinsichtlich Sicherheit und Gesundheit zu ergreifen und die Anwendbarkeit
einschränkender Vorschriften zu ermitteln.
Produits pétroliers liquides - Détermination de la teneur en esters méthyliques d'acides gras (EMAG) des distillats moyens - Méthode par spectrométrie infrarouge
Cette Norme européenne spécifie une méthode d'essai pour la détermination de la teneur en esters méthyliques d'acides gras (EMAG) dans le carburant pour moteurs diesel ou le fioul domestique, par spectrométrie dans l'infrarouge moyen. Cette méthode est applicable pour déterminer des teneurs en EMAG comprises dans l’un des deux intervalles de concentrations suivants :
- Intervalle A : pour des teneurs en EMAG comprises entre environ 0,05 % (V/V) et environ 3 % (V/V) ;
- Intervalle B : pour des teneurs en EMAG comprises entre environ 3 % (V/V) et environ 20 % (V/V).
En principe, des teneurs en EMAG supérieures peuvent aussi être déterminées par une dilution préalable ; par contre, les données de fidélité ne sont pas disponibles actuellement en dehors des gammes de concentrations mentionnées.
Il a été vérifié que la méthode était applicable à des échantillons contenant des EMAG conformes aux spécifications européennes EN 14214 ou EN 14213. Des résultats quantitatifs fiables sont obtenus seulement lorsque les échantillons ne contiennent pas d’autres constituants interférant en quantités significatives, en particulier les esters et autres composés carbonylés, qui présentent des bandes d’absorption dans la région spectrale utilisée pour la quantification des EMAG. Lorsque de tels constituants sont présents, cette méthode d’essai donne des valeurs surestimées.
NOTE 1 Pour les besoins de la présente Norme européenne, l'expression «% (V/V)» est utilisée pour représenter la fraction volumique () d'un produit.
NOTE 2 Pour la conversion de grammes d’EMAG par litre (g d’EMAG / l) en fraction volumique, une masse volumique donnée d’EMAG de 883,0 kg/m3 est adoptée.
AVERTISSEMENT - L'utilisation de la présente Norme européenne peut impliquer l'intervention de produits, d'opérations et d'équipements à caractère dangereux. La présente norme européenne n'est pas censée aborder tous les problèmes de sécurité concernés par son usage. (...)
Tekoči naftni proizvodi - Določevanje metilnih estrov maščobnih kislin (FAME) v srednjih destilatih - Metoda infrardeče spektroskopije
Ta evropski standard opredeljuje metodo preskušanja za določevanje vsebnosti metilnih estrov maščobnih kislin (FAME) v dizelskem gorivu ali gorivih za ogrevanja v gospodinjstvih z metodo srednje infrardeče spektroskopije, ki se nanaša na vsebnost FAME dveh razponov merjenja, kot sledi: razpon A: za vsebnost FAME v razponu od pribl. 0,05 % (V/V) do pribl. 3 % (V/V); razpon B: za vsebnost FAME v razponu od pribl. 3 % (V/V) do pribl. 20 % (V/V). Načeloma je možno analizirati tudi višje vsebnosti FAME, če so razredčene; vendar pa trenutno ni na voljo natančnih podatkov za rezultate izven opredeljenega razpona. Ta metoda preskušanja je bila potrjena, da se lahko uporablja za vzorce, ki vsebujejo FAME, v skladu z EN 14214 ali EN 14213. Zanesljive kvantitativne rezultate je mogoče dobiti le, če vzorci ne vsebujejo znatnih količin drugih motečih sestavin, zlasti estrov in drugih karbonilnih spojin, ki imajo absorpcijske pasove v spektralnem območju, ki se uporablja za količinsko določitev FAME. Če so prisotne takšne moteče sestavine, je pričakovati, da bo ta metoda preskušanja dala višje vrednosti.

EN 14078:2009 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 14078:2009) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 19 “Gaseous and liquid fuels, lubricants and related products of petroleum, synthetic and biological origin”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2010, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2010. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 14078:2003. The revision was pursued with the aim to extend the measurement range to lower FAME contents and to improve the precision of the test method. Therefore, the infrared (IR) determination was analytically revised, i.e. by splitting the calibration, measurement into two separate measurement ranges. The significantly improved precision data was backed up by extensive round robin tests. Thus the application range for this test method could be lowered significantly down to a FAME content of approximately 0,05 % (V/V). According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

EN 14078:2009 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) content in diesel fuel or domestic heating fuel by mid infrared spectrometry, which applies to FAME contents of the two measurement ranges as follows: range A: for FAME contents ranging from approx. 0,05 % (V/V) to approx. 3 % (V/V); range B: for FAME contents ranging from approx. 3 % (V/V) to approx. 20 % (V/V). Principally, higher FAME contents can also be analyzed if diluted; however, no precision data for results outside the specified range is available at present. This test method was verified to be applicable to samples which contain FAME conforming to EN 14214 or EN 14213. Reliable quantitative results are obtained only if the samples do not contain any significant amounts of other interfering components, especially esters and other carbonyl compounds which possess absorption bands in the spectral region used for quantification of FAME. If such interfering components are present, this test method is expected to produce higher values. NOTE 1 For the purposes of this European Standard, the term "% (V/V)" is used to represent the volume fraction (ϕ) of a material. NOTE 2 For conversion of grams FAME per litre (g FAME/l) to volume fraction, a fixed density for FAME of 883,0 kg/m3 is adopted. WARNING — The use of this standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

Requirements and test methods EN ISO 3170, Petroleum liquids
Manual sampling (ISO 3170:2004) EN ISO 3171, Petroleum liquids
Automatic pipeline sampling (ISO 3171:1988) 3 Principle The mid infrared absorption spectrum of a test portion of a sample which has been diluted as appropriate with FAME-free solvent is recorded. The absorbance at the peak maximum of the typical absorption band for esters at about (1 745 ± 5) cm-1 is measured. Initially, calibration as well as evaluation of the data will be carried out as grams FAME per litre. For conversion of grams per litre (g/l) to the reporting unit "% (V/V)", a fixed density of FAME of 883,0 kg/m3 (15 °C) is adopted. Two measurement ranges (A or B) have been chosen for which specific adjustments for the calibration and dilution need to be followed. Measurement preferably without dilution for range A and a shorter path length of the measurement cell for range B. In particular, the lower determination range A is a challenging one; all ensuing SIST EN 14078:2010
EN 14078:2009 (E) 5 details shall be kept as a package without any omissions or additions of individual details. That is the only way to adhere to the improved precision data of range A determined by round robin tests. Based on the absorbance measured at the maximum of the peak of the absorption band the FAME content is calculated by means of a calibration function which was determined by measuring calibration solutions for which the FAME content is known.
4 Reagents and materials 4.1 FAME for calibration, FAME as specified in EN 14214 (automotive diesel fuel) or EN 14213 (domestic heating oil). 4.2 FAME free middle distillate as solvent for dilution and as reference material for the measurement of the background spectrum. In particular, a middle distillate suitable for the type of sample (diesel fuel or domestic heating oil) shall be used for range A in order to avoid spectral decompensation as far as possible. In this context, the property "FAME free" means middle distillates without any absorption bands in the IR signal range typical for FAME. 4.3 Solvents for cleaning, such as ethanol, n-pentane or cyclohexane. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Infrared spectrometer, dispersive or interferometer type, capable of operating in the wave number range from approx. 400 cm-1 to approx. 4 000 cm-1, with a linear absorption in the absorbance range from (0,1 to 1,1) absorbance units, and having a resolution of minimum 4 cm-1. 5.2 Cells, made of KBr, NaCl, or CaF2, with known path length, where the additional instructions for the selection and treatment of cells dependent on the applied measurement range as given in 7.1 are followed. EXAMPLE A standard solution with a FAME concentration of 3 g FAME/l (0,34 % (V/V)) should give an absorbance of about 0,4 at the maximum peak at about 1 745 cm -1 if a cell with a path length of 0,5 mm is used. 6 Sampling and sample handling Samples shall be taken according to EN ISO 3170 or EN ISO 3171 as well as in accordance with the requirements of national standards or regulations for the sampling of the product under test. If samples are not tested immediately, they shall be stored tightly sealed and in a cool and dark place. 7 Procedure 7.1 Selection and treatment of the cell The path length of the cell (5.2) shall be selected so that adequate net signal intensities can be obtained (in at least two decimal places, see marked cells in Table A.1). Signal intensities shall still be within the linear detector range. Specific adjustments shall be followed (see recommendations given in Table A.1) depending on measurement range A or B: range A: path length as long as possible and measurement preferably without dilution; and range B: shorter path length and dilution adapted to the anticipated FAME content. The path length shall be known or determined exactly. If in use for a longer period of time it should be checked more frequently. A specific and individual calibration shall be made for every cell in use, retaining all other SIST EN 14078:2010
EN 14078:2009 (E) 6 measurement parameters for every applied measurement range. The use of several or different cells during the same calibration is not permissible. The very same cell shall be used for calibration and for measurement. Only the exactly determined path length applies for the cell in use; nominal data (nominal path length, labelling, nominal spacer data or the like) shall not be used without any adequate control or correction measures. If cells sensitive to water are used the path length shall be checked mo
