Comprehensive Guide to ISO 11358 Carbon Residue Testing of Petroleum Products Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ISO 11358 is a widely accepted international standard for the carbon residue testing of petroleum products. This standard, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), provides a framework for laboratories to test and analyze the carbon residue content in various types of petroleum products.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding ISO 11358 Carbon Residue Testing of Petroleum Products is governed by national and international standards. In Europe, the standard is harmonized with European Standard EN 12937:2001, which is mandatory for all petroleum product manufacturers and suppliers. Similarly, in the United States, ASTM D4530-13 (2018) is the equivalent standard.

International and National Standards

The following are some of the key international and national standards that apply to ISO 11358 Carbon Residue Testing of Petroleum Products:

  • ISO 11358:2003

  • EN 12937:2001

  • ASTM D4530-13 (2018)

  • TSE 6765 (Turkish Standard for Petroleum Products)

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The standard development organizations that play a crucial role in the evolution and update of standards related to ISO 11358 include:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

  • European Committee for Standardization (CEN)

  • Turkish Standards Institution (TSE)

    • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with standard requirements is mandatory for various industries, including:

  • Petroleum product manufacturers

  • Suppliers of petroleum products

  • Refining companies

  • Petrochemical industry

    • Failure to comply with these standards can result in non-conformance, fines, and even business closure.

    Business and Technical Reasons for Conducting ISO 11358 Carbon Residue Testing

    The carbon residue content in petroleum products has significant implications on their performance, safety, and environmental impact. High carbon residue levels can lead to equipment clogging, reduced product quality, and increased risk of explosions or fires.
