ASTM D-5307 and ASTM D-7169 SIMDIS Standards: A Comparison and Correlation of Methods

摘要

TBP curves are essential in process simulators of the refining industry, particularly for the heaviest fractions of crude oils. ASTM D-7169 and ASTM D-5307 are standards used in simulated distillation analysis for fast characterization of these fractions. In this report, correlations to convert data from the first one to the second-mentioned standard are reported. These correlations were obtained from our analytical laboratory and pilot plant experimental data, gathered so far.
