9、ETECTION PROCEDURES4.Summary of Test Method4.1 In this test method,a sample of feedstock oil is weighedin a combustion boat containing either a tungsten oxide basedaccelerator,sand or aluminum oxide absorbent,and the sulfurcontent is determined by placing the boat in a tube furnace at1350C in an air
10、 or oxygen-enriched atmosphere resulting incomplete combustion.Sulfur in the sample is completelyoxidized to sulfur dioxide.Moisture and particulates areremoved from the gas stream by traps filled with anhydrousmagnesium perchlorate.The gas stream is then passed througha cell in which sulfur dioxide
11、 concentration is measured by aninfrared(IR)absorption detector at a precise wavelength in theIR spectrum.The IR absorption detects sulfur dioxide through-out the entire combustion process.The integral of the detectorsignal is the basis for the total sulfur content of a sample.4.2 This test method i
