PONA CALCULATION AND OCTANE RATING EXPERIMENT FOR MOTOR GASOLINE

— This paper has discussed the PONA analysis and octane rating procedure for motor gasoline (MS). PONA analysis is an indication of the paraffin, olefin, napthenes and aromatic percentage in a petroleum sample. And octane rating operation indicates the research octane number (RON), motor octane number (MON) for a fuel sample. Here both experiments are performed for MS (regular). The sample was collected from the condensate fractionation plant of Super Refinery (Pvt.) Limited. For PONA calculation FIA method was employed and for octane rating a octane analyzer meter ( Zx 101C) was used.
