Test Uses:
°DOT/
Revenue Staff – to test fuels in storage, distribution and vehicles which
aids in fuel tax enforcement
°Distributors
– provides confirmation of authenticity of fuels purchased and sold
-Determine
if biodiesel or red dye is present in diesel fuel violating fuel tax laws
-Determine
if ethanol is present in gasoline
°Individual
Consumers – to confirm that they are buying a product as advertised
Positive test results can be quantified by the Heritage Laboratories upon sample submittal for an additional charge.
Ease of Use:
Just add your sample to the reaction vial and invert gently 5
times.
Just add your sample to the reaction vial and invert gently 5
times.
Just add your sample to the SPE tube provided.
Add a small amount of solvent to isolate the dye from the fuel.
Easy to Read:
Negative
- If the top layer color is equal to or lighter than the original fuel
sample, then 100% diesel.
Positive
-
If the top layer color is darker than the original fuel sample,
then your sample contains biodiesel.
The darker the color the more biodiesel it contains.
Negative
- If the bottom layer color stays an orange color or brown, then the
sample contains no ethanol.
Positive - If the bottom layer turns green or blue, then your sample contains ethanol. High concentrations will turn the entire sample blue.
*Note: Test must be read immediately. All Samples eventually turn green.

BQ 9000 Testing |
| - Fuels Testing |
Heritage offers testing of fuels and oils to the
manufacturing community, oil formulators and fuel marketers. We
also offer BQ9000 testing for Biodiesel manufacturers to maintain
compliance.
Biofuel Testing
Providing the latest testing services to
give you accurate and rapid analysis.
Many decisions are made in the production and marketing of biofuels
based on laboratory data.
Heritage provides you accurate data to
base your decisions.
B100 and ethanol producers as well as
marketers of biodiesel and ethanol products want to assure quality to
their customers. Heritage will give you strong data to support your
decisions.
Heritage can quantify the amount of
biofuel in diesel regardless of the source of biofuel.
This laboratory can also determine the amount of ethanol in
gasoline and can also distinguish ethanol from butanol in gasoline.
Fuel Testing
Heritage is positioning itself to become a certified fuels testing laboratory. Stay tuned for details that will provide specific testing capabilities as we enter this market.
