Automated High-Performance Liquid Chromatography for SARA Analysis (SARA-HPLC)

Azadeh Karevan et al.

Summary: The automated SARA-HPLC system developed in this study utilizes three columns with different stationary phases and automated six-port switching valves to separate asphaltene, resins, and aromatics efficiently and accurately. The system's use of propane to sweep the carrier phase and the application of toluene for elution result in fast, cost-effective, repeatable, and precise analysis compared to current methods.
