Rapid detection of fuel adulteration using microfabricated gas chromatography

Rapid and accurate quality control for fuel adulteration is a major economic and health concern. Current technology lacks capability to provide speedy and accurate point of sale (POS) solutions. Most of the work done on portable solutions rely on absorbance spectroscopy, which provide a qualitative solution with a trade-off between speed and accuracy. This paper demonstrates a technique based on micro gas chromatography (μGC) for portable, fast,...
