Abstract
Four wavelengths (266, 355, 428, and 532 nm) generated from a prototyp e laser fluorosensor system were used to investigate the fluorescence spectral and temporal characteristics of crude and refined Kuwaiti oil s in the laboratory. Temporal and spectral measurements were gathered for fresh and naturally weathered oil samples. Furthermore, a principa l-components algorithm was developed for the purpose of identifying an d classifying unknown oils.
