A new simple, rapid and inexpensive analytical method was developed to determine the biodiesel percentage in biodiesel/diesel blends through simple digital images of samples obtained by scanning with a commercial scanner. Soybean biodiesel and petroleum diesel samples were acquired from refineries currently in operation. There were prepared several mixtures within the range 1.5 to 12.0% of biodiesel in diesel oil, using the same procedure as is done in industry. The analytical signals were images recorded with a scanner. This data was decomposed with different color systems: RGB, HSV, HLS, CMYK and Grayscale. Chemometrics models based on color signals obtained from different mixtures of biodiesel/diesel were built. The quantification by using partial least squares (PLS) resulted in a RMSEP value for biodiesel of 0.9% (w/w); this load approximately 10-times smaller than the corresponding calibration range, with a correlation of 0.96 between predicted and reference values.
