"The nicest thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from” -- Andres S. Tannenbaum
Industry standards are an important component of desulfurization research. Identifying the standards that apply to a given situation can be a challenge. One place to start is ASTM International (http://www.astm.org/) . The site has a good search capability, and once you have identified the standards you need, you can purchase them for immediate download.
For example, searching for “sulfur” in the ASTM Standards and Engineering Digital Library (http://www.astm.org/DIGITAL_LIBRARY/index.shtml) you will find a number of hits, including …
D5623-94(2009) Standard Test Method for Sulfur Compounds in Light Petroleum Liquids by Gas Chromatography and Sulfur Selective Detection
Significance and Use
Gas chromatography with sulfur selective detection provides a rapid means to identify and quantify sulfur compounds in various petroleum feeds and products. Often these materials contain varying amounts and types of sulfur compounds. Many sulfur compounds are odorous, corrosive to equipment, and inhibit or destroy catalysts employed in downstream processing. The ability to speciate sulfur compounds in various petroleum liquids is useful in controlling sulfur compounds in finished products and is frequently more important than knowledge of the total sulfur content alone.
