The method applies to natural gas and other gases which do not react with Karl Fischer reagents. It applies to water concentrations between5mg/m 3and5000mg
25、/m 3 . Volumes are expressed a temperature of273,15K (0C) and a pressure of101,325kPa (1atm). 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO10101.

ISO 10101-1:1993, Natural gas Determination of water by the Karl Fischer method Part1:Introduction. 3 Principle A measured volume of gas is passed
28、 through the titration cell, where the water is absorbed by the anodic solution. The iodine required for the determination of water by the Karl Fischer reaction is generated coulometrically from iodide. The quantity of electricity is directly proportional to the mass of iodine generated and hence to
29、 the mass of water determined. The principle and chemical reactions of the Karl Fischer method are given in ISO10101-1:1993, clauses3 and4; interferences are also described in clause4 of ISO10101-1. 4 Reagents 4.1 Reagents specially formulated for coulometric determination NOTE 1A typical compositio
30、n of the anodic solution is as follows:34% (m/m) trichloromethane, 3% (m/m) tetrachloromethane,22% (m/m) methanol, the remainder being sulfur dioxide and pyridine. Other reagents may be used, for the coulometric determination by the Karl Fischer method, if they have shown to be satisfactory. 4.2 Ref
31、erence solution, e.g.water and methanol mixture, with a water content of5,0mg/l 4% or10,0mg/l 4%. Keep this solution in a flask sealed with a septum. 4.3 Phosphorus pentoxide, with indicator. 5 Apparatus A diagram of the titration cell is shown in Figure 1 and a diagram of the complete apparatus is
32、shown in Figure 2. Figure 3 and Figure 4 illustrate the gas inlet with 3-way valve and the drying tube in the gas outlet line, respectively. All parts which come into contact with gas shall consist of glass and stainless steel. Flexible connections shall be polychloroprene or fluoroelastomers. The r
33、otor of the gas inlet tap shall be of polytetrafluoroethylene. 6 Sampling See ISO 10101-1:1993, clause 5. 7 Procedure 7.1 Installation Follow the manufacturers instructions for the addition of reagents to the cells, for switching on and for the determination of any initial water. 7.2 Testing the res
34、ponse Flush a104l syringe twice with reference solution(4.2) and introduce a measured amount (about104l) into the anodic cell with the tip of the needle below the surface of the liquid. Switch on the stirrer and start the determination. The results, expressed in micrograms, should agree with the mas
35、s of water introduced with the reference solution to within the expected repeatability. If sufficiently good agreement does not exist, look for a technical defect in the apparatus and resolve it before use.ISO10101-3:1993(E) 4 BSI 05-1999 7.3 Measurement Switch on the magnetic stirrer. Purge the sam
36、ple line to atmosphere through the 3-way valve. Adjust the 3-way valve to direct gases into the titration vessel and adjust the gas flow to between30l/h and40l/h. Measure the flow at the exit from the cell with a wet gas meter. The gas volume to be used depends upon the anticipated concentration of
37、water. When this volume has passed through the cell, return the 3-way valve to the former position. NOTE 2The optimum flowrate depends on the geometry of the equipment. A check that all the water is being absorbed should be carried out by passing the same volume of gas at different flowrates and ens
38、uring that equal results are obtained. For low water concentrations, it may be preferable to delay the determination until the required volume has been passed. The delayed determination procedure can only be applied if it is available as a programmable feature on the coulometer, which then continues
39、 to compensate for the background over the time entered into the memory, if this procedure is used, the operator should be satisfied that automatic compensation for zero drift is still correctly applied. The drift should be constant during the whole time of the determination. 7.4 Blank determination
40、 In the case of water concentrations (less than100mg/m 3 ), perform a blank determination to correct for losses of iodine by evaporation during passage of the gas sample. To this end, install an absorber packed with phosphorus pentaxide (4.3) as close as possible to the inlet of the titration cell.
41、Pass through an amount of dry gas, under the same conditions as those applied for the actual sample (flow, time, pressure and temperature). Repeat blank determinations until a constant level is achieved. NOTE 3The water vapour concentration at equilibrium with phosphorus pentoxide amounts to0,2mg/m
42、3 . Under ambient conditions, iodine losses by evaporation will be equivalent to water concentrations of1mg/m 3to4mg/m 3 . The contents of the absorber should be replaced when the coloured zone occupies more than50% of the absorber length. 8 Expression of results 8.1 Method of calculation Calculate
43、the water content A(H 2 O), expressed in milligrams per cubic meter at273,15K (0C) and101,325kPa (1atm), of the gas using the equation where If necessary, the water content can be corrected for interferences due to sulfur coumpounds as described in ISO 10101-1:1993, clause4. Express the water conten
44、t as A(H 2 O), in milligrams per cubic metre, choosing the number of significant figures according to the value of the repeatability. 8.2 Precision 8.2.1 Repeatability, r If one operator determines two different results under repeatable conditions, both results shall be considered as acceptable and
45、in accordance with this part of ISO10101, provided that they do not differ by more than the numerical value of r shown graphically in Figure 5, determined according to ISO5725. 8.2.2 Reproducibility, R If different laboratories determine results under comparable conditions, both results shall be con
46、sidered as acceptable and in accordance with this part of ISO10101, provided that they do not differ by more than the numerical value of R shown graphically in Figure 5, determined according to ISO5725. 9 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following information: a) a reference to
