This document specifies a wavelength-dispersive X ray fluorescence (WDXRF) test method for the determination of the sulfur content of liquid, homogeneous automotive fuels from 5 mg/kg to 500 mg/kg, which have a maximum oxygen content of 3,7 % (m/m). This product range covers diesel fuels containing up to about 30 % (V/V) fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) and motor gasolines containing up to about 10 % (V/V) ethanol, and synthetic fuels such as Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) and Gas To Liquid (GTL) having sulfur contents in the range of 5 mg/kg to 45 mg/kg. NOTE 1 Sulfur contents higher than 500 mg/kg can be determined after sample dilution. However, the precision was not established for diluted samples. Products with higher oxygen content show significant matrix effects, e.g. FAME used as biodiesel. Nevertheless, FAME may be analysed when the corresponding procedures are followed (see 5.3 and 8.1). Other products may be analysed with this test method. However, precision data for products other than those mentioned have not been established for this document. NOTE 2 For the purposes of this document, the terms % (m/m) and % (V/V) are used to represent the mass fraction, ¼, and the volume fraction, Æ, of a material respectively.
