Detailed How to Measure Chlorides in Crude Oil by ASTM D4929C & Water Extraction
To avoid the pitfalls of corrosion and other chloride-related concerns, refineries and terminals throughout the world have implemented standard methods and procedures to ensure that the organic chloride content in their crude is kept below a certain level.
Such methods include ASTM D4929C – a faster and easier alternative to procedures A & B, as well as procedures like water extraction, each to be discussed in further detail throughout this paper.
