Fat and oil derivatives - Fatty Acid Methyl Esters - Determination of methanol content

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of methanol content in fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) for use as diesel fuel and domestic heating fuel. The method is applicable for a concentration range from 0,01 % to 0,5 % (m/m) methanol. The method is not applicable to mixtures of FAME which contain other low boiling components.

1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of the methanol content of fatty acid methyl
esters (FAME) for use as diesel fuel and domestic heating fuel. The method is applicable to methanol
contents between 0,01 % (m/m) and 0,5 % (m/m). The method is not applicable to mixtures of FAME
containing other low boiling components.
NOTE For the purposes of this document, the terms “% (m/m)” and “% (V/V)” are used to represent
respectively the mass fraction and the volume fraction.
WARNING — The use of this document can involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This
document does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of users of this document to take appropriate measures to ensure the safety and health of
personnel prior to application of the standard, and fulfil statutory and regulatory requirements for this
purpose.

3 Terms and definitions
No terms and definitions are listed in this document.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
• IEC Electropedia: available at http://www.electropedia.org/
• ISO Online browsing platform: available at http://www.iso.org/obp
4 Principle
The sample is heated at 80 °C in a hermetically sealed vial to allow desorption of contained methanol into
the gas phase. When the equilibrium is reached a defined part of the gas phase is injected into a gas
chromatograph, where methanol is detected with a flame ionization detector.
The amount of methanol can be determined either by internal calibration (procedure A) or by external
calibration (procedure B).
If only manual equipment is available then only internal standard calibration should be used.
5 Reagents
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade, unless otherwise specified.
5.1 Methanol, of known purity greater than 99,5 %.
5.2 2-propanol, of known purity, greater than 99,5 % (for procedure A, internal calibration).

Reference FAME can either be obtained from commercial sources or by washing FAME three to five times
with distilled water in a separator funnel. FAME should be then dried by heating at 90 °C under stirring
and reduced pressure.
