SIMULATION OF CHROMATOGRAPHIC PROFILES FOR MULTICOMPONENT MIXTURES OF AROMATIC COMPOUNDS

The aim of this work concerns the reconstruction of the elution profiles obtained in HPLC separation of aromatic compound mixtures. In particular, the proposed model represents the migration of tricomponent mixtures of alkylbenzenes (a class of compounds belonging to gasoil) in a chromatographic system. The obtained profiles are compared with experimental data and show the possibility to use the model as a tool for acquiring reliable and practical information on the peak identification in HPLC analysis.
