UOP 79-87

This method describes equipment and procedures used for laboratory fractionation of petroleum distillates and products. Procedures are given for quantitatively removing non-condensable and condensable gases, as well as obtaining liquid fractions boiling within the range of 10 to 400 C. For the fractionation of crude oil and the preparation of distillation curves from true boiling point (TBP) data, see ASTM D 2892.
