Abstract

A method for measuring the quantity of olefins present in a hydrocarbon stream wherein a measured quantity of the hydrocarbon is injected into a vaporizing furnace. A carrier gas transports the vaporized hydrocarbon through the furnace to an electrochemical cell whose signal is integrated to provide a measure of the olefins present in the sample.
