“…Según [24] la sociedad técnica para pruebas y materiales (ASTM) ha proporcionado normas para el análisis de residuos generados por procesos térmicos desde 1990. Los cambios más importantes se han presentado en las dos principales normas para el análisis de residuos líquidos inflamables ASTM E 1387 y ASTM E 1618 para cromatografía de gases (GC) y espectrometría de gasesespectrometría de masas (GC-MS), respectivamente.…”

Resumen This article shows the importance energy characterization of liquid and gaseous fuels obtained from the known pyrolysis heat treatment by microwave. The characterization of these fuels will take into account technical standards such as ASTM D3452 -93 for gas chromatography (GC), ASTM D2549 for gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC / MS) and ASTM D6370 -99 to thermogravimetry in the analysis of the composition of the tires.It also shows that these pyrolytic oils and gases have a high calorific value of 42 MJ / kg and a sulfur content between 0.8 and 1.65 wt%, depending on the type of tire and process conditions. Este artículo muestra la importancia de la caracterización de la energía de combustibles líquidos y gaseosos obtenidos del conocido tratamiento térmico de pirolisis a través de un microondas. La caracterización de estos combustibles tomará en cuenta los estándares técnicos tales como ASTM D3452 -93 para la cromatografía de gases (GC), ASTM D2549 para cromatografía de gas/ espectrometría de masa (GC/MS) y ASTM D6370 -99 para termogravimetría en el análisis de la composición de llantas.También muestra que estos combustibles y gases de pirolisis tiene una alta valor calorífico de 42 MJ / Kg y un contenido de azufre entre 0.8 y 1.65 Wt%, dependiendo en el tipo de llanta y las condiciones del proceso.

“…Two reviews, one describing the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards for fire debris analysis [206], and the other listing recent advances in a variety of areas related to fire debris analysis, have also been published [207]. An overview of the first five collaborative tests for ignitable liquid analysis conducted by the Fire and Explosion Investigation Working Group of the European Network of Forensic Science Institutes (ENFSI) has been reported [208].…”

“…While the older system (Table 1) uses both names and numbers, the current system (Table 2) uses a two-dimensional approach, with more categories being defined and each category divided into three subcategories, with the exception of gasoline. This revision was necessary to accommodate the evolution of the petroleum industry with many new products being developed, products that in the old system would all have been classed in the ''0'' (miscellaneous) category, with the result that the number of subcategories exceeded the number of classes (7).…”

Arson is a serious crime that affects society through cost, property damage, and loss of life. It is important that the methods and technologies applied by fire investigators in detection of evidence and subsequent analyses have a high degree of reliability, sensitivity, and be subject to rigorous quality control and assurance. There have been considerable advances in the field of arson investigation since the 1950s. Classification of ignitable liquids has been updated to include many new categories due to developments in the petroleum industry. Techniques such as steam or vacuum distillation and gas chromatography (GC) with flame ionization detection that may have been considered acceptable--even a benchmark--40 years ago, are nowadays generally disfavored, to the extent that their implementation may almost be considered as ignorance in the field. The advent of readily available mass spectrometric techniques has revolutionized the field of fire debris analysis, increasing the degree of sensitivity and discrimination possible considerably. Multi-dimensional GC--particularly GC x GC--while not yet widely applied, is rapidly gaining recognition as an important technique. This comprehensive review focuses on techniques and practices used in fire investigation, from scene investigation to analysis.
