Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] A chromatograph is a precision instrument for separating and quantitatively or qualitatively analyzing complex mixtures by utilizing the difference in distribution coefficients of components in a mixture between a stationary phase and a mobile phase.

[0003] In related technologies, temperature control of a chromatograph is a core link for ensuring chromatographic separation effect, repeatability and accuracy. By regulating the environmental temperature of a chromatographic column, the distribution coefficient of components in a stationary phase and a mobile phase is stabilized, and key analysis indicators such as retention time and separation degree are controlled.

[0004] For the related technologies in the above, the function of separating a mixture is realized by heating a chromatographic column to a target temperature and then stopping heating. However, after heating is stopped, the excess heat generated by the heating element will continue to warm up the chromatographic column, so that the actual temperature range of the chromatographic column after heating is higher than the target temperature, resulting in a temperature fluctuation range between different regions in the column oven being larger than a standard temperature fluctuation range, which further affects the temperature retention time accuracy and causes some components in the mixture to not be normally separated, and there is still room for improvement.

[0085] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the following will combine the drawings of the present application with the embodiments to make further detailed description of the present application. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application. Figures 1 to 7 The purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application will be further described in detail in the embodiments of the present application. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.

[0086] The chromatographic instrument temperature control method disclosed in the embodiments of the present application mainly aims at the temperature control problem of the chromatographic instrument, and specifically discloses a column oven, a chromatographic column, a column oven state monitoring device, a chromatographic column temperature regulating device and a processing terminal. The processing terminal is in communication connection with the column oven state monitoring device and the chromatographic column temperature regulating device to realize data interaction and control. After the column oven state monitoring device sends the real-time temperature of the column oven and the real-time temperature of the chromatographic column to the processing terminal, the processing terminal compares the real-time temperature of the column oven and the real-time temperature of the chromatographic column with the normal temperature data. When the real-time temperature of the column oven and the real-time temperature of the chromatographic column are inconsistent with the normal temperature data, the processing terminal controls the chromatographic column temperature regulating device to adjust the internal temperature of the column oven and the temperature of the chromatographic column according to the temperature data difference, so as to rapidly and reasonably control the chromatographic column temperature regulating device to adjust the internal temperature of the column oven and the temperature of the chromatographic column, so that the temperature difference between the column oven and the chromatographic column and the set target temperature is kept within the standard temperature fluctuation range, and the temperature retention time precision is further improved.

[0087] Referring to Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application discloses a chromatograph temperature control method, comprising the following steps:

[0088] Step S100: obtaining the sample type of a preset sample.

[0089] The sample refers to a mixture that needs to be analyzed by a chromatograph.

[0090] The sample type refers to the classification of the sample according to the source, physical and chemical properties of the sample, which is preliminarily judged by an operator according to the source, physical and chemical properties of the sample, such as whether the sample is a gas, solid, liquid or biological sample, and further confirmed by pretreatment methods such as dissolution and extraction, and experiments compared with standard samples.

[0091] The chromatograph refers to a precision instrument for separating and quantitatively or qualitatively analyzing a mixture by utilizing the difference in distribution coefficients between a stationary phase and a mobile phase of each component in the mixture, including a column oven, a chromatographic column and a chromatographic column temperature control device.

[0092] The column oven refers to a device capable of precisely controlling the temperature to heat and keep the chromatographic column, so as to ensure that the chromatographic column maintains constant temperature conditions during the analysis process.

[0093] The chromatographic column refers to a device composed of a column tube and a filler or coating layer, used for separating each component in a mixture in chromatographic analysis, and the chromatographic column is located at the center position in the column oven.

[0094] The chromatographic column temperature control device refers to a device for adjusting the temperature of the chromatographic column and the temperature in the column oven, including a temperature raising assembly, an air extraction assembly and an air blowing assembly. The temperature raising assembly refers to a component for raising the temperature of the chromatographic column to reach a set target temperature, so that the substances in the sample are precipitated, and the temperature raising assembly is composed of a metal heating wire, an insulating support and a protective sleeve. When it is determined that the temperature needs to be raised and the temperature raising rate, the temperature raising assembly can be started to heat the chromatographic column, so that the temperature of the chromatographic column reaches the target temperature.

[0095] The air extraction assembly is a component that extracts hot air from the column oven, maintaining the temperature difference between various locations within the oven within a set range. This ensures more complete sample precipitation and improves sample accuracy. The air extraction assembly consists of two exhaust fans installed at the top and bottom of the column oven, respectively. When the temperature difference between the top or bottom of the column oven and the chromatographic column exceeds the set range, the location requiring air extraction is determined. The corresponding exhaust fan is then activated based on this location, and its operating time is determined according to the temperature difference. After the exhaust fan's operating time ends, it is stopped, thus ensuring that the temperature difference between the top or bottom of the column oven and the chromatographic column remains within the set range.

[0096] The air blowing assembly is a component that achieves uniform heat distribution and efficient heat exchange inside the column oven through forced airflow circulation. The air blowing assembly consists of a built-in fan installed inside the column oven and kept at the same level as the center of the chromatographic column. When the heating assembly stops heating the chromatographic column, the air blowing assembly is activated to blow away the excess heat during the heating process to all parts of the column oven, thereby avoiding the problem of insufficient precipitation caused by the actual temperature of the chromatographic column exceeding the target temperature due to excess heat.

[0097] Step S101: Analyze the sample type to determine the window heating rate and the window target temperature.

[0098] The window heating rate refers to the amount of temperature increase per unit time set for different temperature ranges in chromatographic analysis. In one embodiment, the operator determines the high-boiling-point and low-boiling-point components in the sample according to the sample type. A slower window heating rate is used for low-boiling-point components, with the heating rate in the range of 10-20℃ / min. A faster window heating rate is used for high-boiling-point components, with the heating rate in the range of 1-5℃ / min. If the sample is a low-boiling-point C1-C5 hydrocarbon sample, the window heating rate can be set to 15℃ / min.

[0099] The target window temperature refers to the temperature that needs to be reached each time the chromatographic column is heated in chromatographic analysis. In one embodiment, the operator determines whether the sample contains high-boiling-point and low-boiling-point components based on the sample type. If both components are present, two target window temperatures are set: one for the low-boiling-point component and the other for the high-boiling-point component. The target window temperature for the low-boiling-point component is in the range of 30-80°C, and the target window temperature for the high-boiling-point component is in the range of 150-250°C. If the sample is a low-boiling-point C1-C5 hydrocarbon sample, the target window temperature can be set to 80°C.

[0100] Step S102: Obtain the initial temperature of the preset chromatographic column.

[0101] The chromatographic column in this step is consistent with the chromatographic column in step S100, and will not be described here.

[0102] The initial temperature of the chromatographic column refers to the temperature of the chromatographic column measured after the sample enters the chromatographic column. The temperature near the chromatographic column is detected by the temperature sensor in the column oven state monitoring device at the beginning of chromatographic analysis, and the temperature is transmitted to the processing terminal. The temperature is the initial temperature of the chromatographic column.

[0103] The column oven state monitoring device refers to a device composed of a temperature sensor, a timer module and a communication module, which is used to monitor the working state of the column oven and obtain the internal state data of the column oven in real time.

[0104] Step S103: Analyzing the initial temperature of the chromatographic column and the target temperature of the window to determine the temperature that the chromatographic column needs to be raised.

[0105] The temperature that the chromatographic column needs to be raised refers to the temperature that the chromatographic column needs to be raised by the column oven heating operation. After the initial temperature of the chromatographic column is transmitted to the processing terminal, the temperature that the chromatographic column needs to be raised can be obtained by subtracting the initial temperature of the chromatographic column from the target temperature of the window.

[0106] Step S104: Analyzing the temperature that the chromatographic column needs to be raised and the window heating rate to determine the chromatographic column heating time.

[0107] The chromatographic column heating time refers to the time required to raise the temperature of the chromatographic column from the initial temperature to the target temperature. The chromatographic column heating time can be obtained by dividing the temperature that the chromatographic column needs to be raised by the window heating rate.

[0108] Step S105: Controlling the preset chromatographic column temperature control device to control the temperature of the chromatographic column according to the chromatographic column heating time and the target temperature of the window.

[0109] After the processing terminal determines the chromatographic column heating time and the target temperature of the window, the processing terminal controls the chromatographic column temperature control device to control the temperature of the chromatographic column according to the chromatographic column heating time and the target temperature of the window. For details, refer to the steps of Figure 2 , so as to adjust the temperature of the chromatographic column and the column oven, and keep the temperature difference between the column oven and the chromatographic column within the normal temperature fluctuation range, thereby improving the temperature retention time accuracy.

[0110] The chromatographic column temperature control device in this step is consistent with the chromatographic column temperature control device in step S100, and will not be described here.

[0111] Refer to Figure 2 , the step of controlling the preset chromatographic column temperature control device to control the temperature of the chromatographic column according to the chromatographic column heating time and the target temperature of the window includes:

[0112] Step S200: controlling the heating assembly to heat the chromatographic column according to the window heating rate, and obtaining the real-time heating time of the chromatographic column.

[0113] Wherein, after the processing terminal determines the window heating rate, the processing terminal controls the heating assembly to heat the chromatographic column according to the window heating rate, so that the temperature of the chromatographic column reaches the window target temperature at the end of the chromatographic column heating time.

[0114] The real-time heating time of the chromatographic column refers to the time that the chromatographic column has been heated. The timer in the column oven state monitoring device starts counting from the moment the heating assembly starts heating the chromatographic column. The terminal triggers once, and the time increases by one second, so as to obtain the real-time heating time of the chromatographic column.

[0115] Step S201: determining whether the real-time heating time of the chromatographic column and the chromatographic column heating time are consistent.

[0116] Wherein, the processing terminal determines whether the real-time heating time of the chromatographic column and the chromatographic column heating time are consistent, so as to determine whether the heating of the chromatographic column by the heating assembly is completed.

[0117] Step S2011: if not consistent, continue to obtain the real-time heating time of the chromatographic column for cyclic judgment.

[0118] Wherein, if the processing terminal determines that the real-time heating time of the chromatographic column and the chromatographic column heating time are inconsistent, it means that the heating of the chromatographic column by the heating assembly has not been completed, so the heating process is continued to be timed, so as to continuously monitor the heating process of the chromatographic column.

[0119] Step S2012: if consistent, control the heating assembly to stop heating the chromatographic column.

[0120] Wherein, if the processing terminal determines that the real-time heating time of the chromatographic column and the chromatographic column heating time are consistent, it means that the heating of the chromatographic column by the heating assembly has been completed, so the processing terminal sends a stop signal to the heating assembly to make the heating assembly stop heating the chromatographic column.

[0121] Step S20121: analyzing the window target temperature to determine the residual heat influence temperature of the chromatographic column.
