Fuel & mineral testing plays a crucial role in industries such as power, steel, cement, mining, and metallurgy. These tests ensure the quality, composition, and usability of raw materials like coal, coke, diesel, petrol, iron ore, bauxite, DRI (Direct Reduced Iron), ferro alloys, and more. At LGK MET-LAB, we specialise in chemical and physical analysis of fuels and minerals to help industries make informed decisions and maintain high-quality standards.
What Is Fuel Testing?
Fuel testing involves analysing the chemical and physical properties of fuels such as coal, coke, diesel, petrol, furnace oil, and other liquid fuels. The primary purpose is to determine the fuel’s energy content, moisture, ash, sulfur, and other key parameters. These properties directly impact combustion efficiency, emissions, and operational performance in industries.
Types of Fuel Testing We Offer
At LGK MET-LAB, we perform various types of fuel tests, including:
-
Proximate Analysis (Moisture, Volatile Matter, Ash, Fixed Carbon)
-
Ultimate Analysis (Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Sulfur, Oxygen)
-
Gross & Net Calorific Value (GCV & NCV)
-
Ash Fusion Temperature (AFT)
-
Hardgrove Grindability Index (HGI)
-
Petrographic Analysis
These tests help in determining the suitability of the fuel for boilers, furnaces, and other industrial applications.
What Is Mineral Testing?
Mineral testing involves the analysis of ores and minerals to determine their composition, grade, and impurities. It is vital for industries that rely on iron ore, bauxite, limestone, gypsum, silica, and similar materials. The tests confirm whether the material meets industry and buyer specifications.
Key Mineral Tests We Perform
Our mineral testing services include:
-
XRF (X-Ray Fluorescence) Analysis
-
Loss on Ignition (LOI)
-
Moisture Content
-
Density & Bulk Density
-
