The boiling point distribution up toand including n-nonane (n-C9) is calculated.5. Significance and Use5.1 Knowledge of the boiling point distribution

17、 of stabilizedcrude oils is important for the marketing, scheduling, andprocessing of crude oil in the petroleum industry. Test MethodD7169 and IP 545 purport to give such a distribution in crudeoils, but are susceptible to significant errors in the light endsportion of the distribution as well as i

18、n the mass recovery of thewhole crude oil due to the interference imposed by the diluentsolvent. This test method allows for more accurate determina-tion of the front end of the boiling point distribution curve, inaddition to providing important C1 to C9 (nonane) componentlevel information, and more

19、 accurate mass recovery at C9(nonane).6.
