VUV Analytics Inc.宣布了一项重大成就，因为ASTM国际燃料法规批准了ASTM D8267进行喷气燃料分析。
VUV Analytics开发了这种方法，以响应2018年12月的公告，在该公告中，ASTM确定ASTM D1319，即评估“液体石油液化液体碳酸碳液类型的标准测试方法”的裁判方法，不再可能，因为染料是不可能的测试所需的供应有限，没有合适的更换。该方法的最终出版物将在接下来的几周内在ASTM网站上获得。
“Expanding the ASTM D8071 method for gasoline to jet fuel was the logical next step for us and we are glad to provide a superior alternative to the oil and gas market,”said Clark Jernigan, CEO of VUV Analytics. As the bulletin from December 2018 mentions, the only other approved alternative to ASTM D1319 for jet fuel certification is ASTM D6379, an HPLC method. Jernigan further commented,“目前的裁判方法和替代方法都有大量的开销和成本。但是，运行ASTM D8267的燃料的VUV Analyzer™的组合比ASTM D1319的运行价格低十倍（10倍），而五倍（5倍）比ASTM D6739便宜。”
VUV Analytics developed the method and submitted to ASTM for both sub-committee and main committee approvals in less than six months. Even more remarkable than the approval of an analysis method in such a short time, they have also completed an InterLaboratory Study (ILS), which demonstrates precision and reproducibility of the method across multiple laboratories.“Traditionally, an ILS of this type can take up to five years. Due to our technology’s ability to analyze jet fuel on the same hardware configuration as ASTM D8071 (for gasoline), we were able to perform the ILS within a month. Our clients really appreciate the fact that the VUV Analyzer for Fuels can easily be used for both gasoline and jet fuel products -- saving them time and money,”commented Sean Jameson, SVP of business development, VUV Analytics.
除了获得ASTM D8267的批准外，VUV Analytics还宣布了VUV分析仪的可用性，该分析仪能够运行许多应用程序。“The VUV Analyzer for Fuels Platform is so much more than just a way to run ASTM D8267,”commented Peter Boler, VP of marketing, VUV Analytics,“rather, this system provides a single analysis platform that is capable of rapidly switching between different methods like ASTM D8267, ASTM D8071 for gasoline, aromatics in Diesel Fuel analysis and Detailed Hydrocarbon Analysis (ASTM WK64297) with no changes in hardware or setup. Offering a single, comprehensive platform for this type of testing greatly simplifies the operational and cost challenges our customers face in today’s laboratory environment.”
