Controle de Qualidade no Armazenamento de Combustíveis

Abstract

This paper describes the activities carried out during a compulsory internship at a petrochemical company in the quality control laboratory for diesel, gasoline, ethanol and biodiesel fuels. With the advance of motor vehicles, it has become essential to develop fuels capable of meeting this growing demand. In addition, the growing environmental concern on the part of organizations has highlighted the importance of fuel quality control. This study focuses on the subject of quality control in fuel storage, with the aim of discussing the tests carried out at a fuel storage terminal to guarantee the quality of the products supplied to end consumers. It is essential not only to ensure the safety of vehicles, but also to guarantee the quality and safety of the fuels sold, as well as combating environmental impacts.
