The sulfur concentrations in the analyzed fuel samples were 0.0019–0.0178 wt% and 0.027–0.169 wt% for gasoline and diesel, respectively. Sulfur levels in the selected samples were below the Nigerian standard for gasoline and diesel while 89.9% of the samples exceeded the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standard. The turbidimetric method showed better performance than the gravimetric method. The results gave insight into the adverse environmental impact the nonuniform quality of fuels imported could pose to the country 2020-01-17T09:02:51Z 2020-01-17T09:02:51Z 2014-12-08 Journal DOI: 10.1080/10916466.2014.920028 https://ir.oauife.edu.ng/handle/123456789/5069 en application/pdf Taylor & Francis |
