One of the most important analyses done today on petroleum products, particularly gasoline, reformulated gasoline, and diesel, is for low levels of sulfur. Government regulations on sulfur emissions from automobiles and other combustion sources have steadily increased hence, the increasing interest in devising precise and accurate methods for trace and ultra-...

Reformulated Gasoline. Reformulated gasoline (RFG) is designed to reduce CO, air toxics, and VOC. Adding oxygen compounds lowers CO emissions, limiting benzene reduces air toxics, and controlling volatihty limits VOC emissions. Table 7 lists the RFG specification that took effect in 1995. 

Smylie et al., (1991), reviewed the impact on air quality of gasoline reformulation efforts. These gasolines would usually differ from "conventional" fuels in at least three features lower volatility, presence of an oxygenate and lower aromatics. Other quality considerations, such as toxic or air-toxic content, (e.g. lead, benzene, etc.) also come into play for a variety of other effects. 

Gasoline reformulation in the USA is motivated by environmental concerns. There is a desire to reduce the aromatic content of gasoline, to reduce the vapor pressure, and to add oxygenates...
