Draft Philippine National Standard for Determination of Ester and Lauric Acid Content in Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) by Gas Chromatography (Modified EN 14103) (DPNS/DOE TM 01:2015)

In line with the objectives of the Clean Air Act of 1999 and to the implementation of the Biofuels Act of 2006, the Department of Energy's Technical Committee on Petroleum Products and Additives (DOE/TCPPA) reviewed and revised the standard method DPNS/DOE TM 01:2015 - Determination of Ester and Lauric Acid Content in Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) by Gas Chromatography (Modified EN 14103).

This standard test method is an update/review of PNS/DOE TM 01:2009 with revision made on the procedure to make the same applicable to any Gas Chromatography (GC) brands in general.  Also the modified test method has been tested to verify blend higher than 2% (v/v%).
