In this work, the technique of infrared spectroscopy coupled with Eastern methods of Multivariate Calibration Partial Least Squares (PLS) and Partial Least Squares Interval (iPLS) was applied in order to develop methodology capable of quantifying adulterations oil and alcohols in biodiesels Soy and residual oil and its blends with diesel , and to quantify adulterations residual oil lubricant automotive (RAL) in commercial samples of S-10 diesel at filling stations distributed in Brazil by Petrobras S.A. Most multivariate calibration models with variable selection generated by iPLS presented information gain, decrease in the number of latent variables and lower error values when compared to global PLS models. All models constructed showed values of acceptable errors with Medium Error below 4.5%, while the maximum accepted value, determined by current standards is 10%. Thus, the proposed methodologies can be applied in quality control of these biodiesels and their blends with diesel as it were analytically validated by calculating Figures of Merit.
