ani ntrodcution for Petroleum Testing

1. Petroleum Testing Through our global network of testing experts and analytical equipment including chromatography (HPLC, GC, GC/MS) and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS, GFA, FIAS), Our goal is to provide test services as efficiently as possible to maximize our customers' profits. For more information about our services, contact one of our experts today. The large and complex petroleum industry is essential for the economy nowadays, it is difficult for a country to run smoothly without petroleum. Petroleum is the raw material that will ultimately provide power for our vehicles, roads paving, and plastics supply for consumer usage etc. When petroleum is extracted from underground, it is called crude oil. Crude oil is a complex mixture with thousands of compounds that formed from plants and animals millions of years ago. Crude oil is sent to the fractional distillation refinery to process further. Fractional distillation, which involves separating crude oil into many fractions based on their boiling points differences, can provide gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, jet fuel, petroleum feedstocks, waxes, lubricating oils, asphalt and other products. Alfa Chemistry supports the entire range of petroleum products: crude oil, petroleum feed stocks, refined petroleum products, and waste oil. There are hundreds of tests developed on these products.
