This standard will aid in ensuring safe levels in fuels to prevent health risks., ASTM International’s gaseous fuels committee ( D03 ) has proposed a new standard ( WK91049 ) for a method for testing metals in gaseous fuels using sorbent tubes. This proposed standard will aid in providing innovative methods for measuring metals in gaseous fuels, such as biogas and renewable natural gas (RNG). Knowing the metals concentration is important to ensure fuel safety and to monitor…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Brian Milewski, tel +1.267.258.5656; bmilewski@astm.org Release #11854 ###
