DIN EN 15984:2011-07 EN 15984:2011 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard defines a gas chromatographic analysis for the d

22、etermination of the composition of fuel gases, as used in refinery heating gas. These results are used to calculate the carbon content and the lower calorific value. With this gas chromatographic analysis, an overall of 23 refinery heating gas components are determined in concentrations as typically

23、 found in refineries (see Table 1 for further details). Water is not analysed. The results represent dry gases. NOTE 1 Depending on the equipment used, there is a possibility to determine higher hydrocarbons as well. NOTE 2 For the purposes of this European Standard, the terms “% (V/V)” is used to r

24、epresent the volume fraction (). IMPORTANT This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitation

25、s. 2 Principle This standard defines a procedure that is used to determine all components that are present in a typical refinery heating gas, as indicated in Table 1. NOTE The composition range in which each component can be analyzed does depend on the actual sample composition as higher amounts of

26、a certain component may affect the detection range of other components eluting close by. The general ranges which apply to all the individual components are: Hydrocarbons from 0,01 (mol/100 mol) up to 100 (mol/100 mol); Non-condensable gases from 0,02 (mol/100 mol) up to 100 (mol/100 mol); For hydro

27、gen sulfide a range between 0,1 (mol/100 mol) up to 10 (mol/100 mol) has been found applicable. Three different analysis systems are necessary; they may be built in three separate gas chromatographs, or be integrated into one. Depending on the configuration, hydrocarbons with more than five carbon a

28、toms are reported as a sum parameter. The composition of the refinery heating gas is used to calculate the carbon content and the calorific value. A typical procedure is described hereafter. A configuration is acceptable when the determination gives the precision as described in Clause 9. 3 Reagents

29、 and materials 3.1 Gases. 3.1.1 Hydrogen, with a minimum purity of 99,995 % (V/V). 3.1.2 Helium, with a minimum purity of 99,995 % (V/V). 3.1.3 Nitrogen, with a minimum purity of 99,995 % (V/V). 3.1.4 Air, free of oil and water. 3.1.5 Argon, as alternative for analysis system 2, with a minimum purit

34、 15984:2011-07 EN 15984:2011 (E) 6 5 Gas chromatographic analysis 5.1 Analysis systems The gas chromatographic system consist of the following three parts: 1) Analysis system 1 All components except hydrogen (see Table 1) are retained on a porous polymer and a molecular sieve column and back flushed

35、. NOTE HayeSepand Molsieveare examples of such commercially available columns. Hydrogen is determined on a TCD with nitrogen (3.1.3) as the carrier gas (see Figure A.4). 2) Analysis system 2 The second analysis system separates non-condensable gases, carbon dioxide, and hydrocarbons with two carbon

36、atoms and hydrogen sulfide with helium (3.1.2) as the carrier gas and a TCD as a detector. After a pre-separation on a porous polymer column (column 3) propane and higher hydrocarbons are back flushed and vented. See Figure A.5 for details When the inert gases (O2/Ar, N2, CH4and CO) are on the molec

37、ular sieve 13X column, this column is isolated. Carbon dioxide, the C2-hydrocarbons and hydrogen sulfide are eluted from the porous polymer column (column 4) and are detected. The C2-hydrocarbons from this fraction are not used for quantification. After this the molecular sieve 13X column (column 6)

38、 is eluted and the components are determined on the TCD. Methane is quantified on Analysis System 3. 3) Analysis system 3 The third analysis system separates and quantifies all hydrocarbons by an FID and hydrogen (3.1.1) or helium (3.1.2) as the carrier gas. Two columns are used in series. From the

39、methyl silicone column (column 1), the components above a certain cut point e.g. n-pentane are back flushed and determined as a summed peak. The hydrocarbons from the alumina oxide column, column 2, are then separated and quantified. See Figure A.6 for details. 5.2 System configuration The gas chrom

40、atographic system may consist of one or more gas chromatographs, with the possibility for isothermal or temperature programmed runs or both depending on the selected system configuration. A TCD and an FID shall be available. A gas flow control system and gas sampling valves and switching valves are

41、used. Means for quantification shall be provided. NOTE Optionally a vaporizer may be used. 5.3 Columns A combination of packed and capillary columns is possible. It shall be ascertained that a quantitative separation of all the components that need to be determined (see Table 1) is possible and that

42、 the summed total of C5+is quantitative. Adequate separation is required between the components on all three separation systems. If cyclopropane can be determined, it shall be summed to propene. An example for a typical configuration is given in Annex A. DIN EN 15984:2011-07 EN 15984:2011 (E) 7 6 Ca

43、libration 6.1 General Depending on the production procedure of the reference gas mixture, it might be necessary to convert the concentration units of the components in the calibration gas to (mol/mol) %. Linearity of the detectors shall be checked according to Annex B. If calibration is necessary, e

44、.g. daily or for an analysis series, a reference gas mixture shall be analysed. For each analysis system (see 5.1) at least one component, the reference component, needs to be calibrated. For example, for analysis system 1 hydrogen, for analysis system 2 nitrogen and for analysis system 3 propane. W

45、ith these three components, an external calibration is done. The absolute response factor is calculated. For all the other components, relative response factors will be used (see 6.3). The relative response factor of the reference component will be set at 1,0. As alternative all absolute response fa

46、ctors can be determined for all the components that need to be analyzed in a reference gas mixture. A check of this calibration can take place with a gas mixture with fewer components. 6.2 Absolute response factors The determination of absolute response factors is possible when a repeatable injectio

47、n is possible under constant analysis conditions. The ratio between concentration and peak area is determined and the absolute response factor is calculated with the following equation: iiiAxRF =(1) where iRFis the absolute response factor of component i ; ix is the concentration of component i in (

48、mol/100 mol) in the calibration gas; iA is the peak area of component i in the calibration gas. 6.3 Relative response factors For quantification relative response factors can be used too. In one analysis system, one component is used as a reference (reference component). The relative response factor is calculated with the following equation: StiiRFRFRRF =(2) where iRRFis the relative response factor of component i ; DIN EN 15984:2011-07 EN 15984:2011 (E) 8 iRFis the abs
