Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of chemical hazard assessment technology in the petrochemical industry, specifically to a method for rapidly determining chemical compatibility based on Raman spectroscopy. Background Technology
[0002] In the petrochemical industry, the production, storage, and transportation of chemicals often require mixed storage or formulation. In special circumstances, chemical leaks can inevitably lead to chemical mixing. Chemical compatibility refers to whether a chemical reaction will occur when two or more chemicals are mixed. To mitigate the risks of chemical mixing or reactions, compatibility assessments must be performed before production, storage, and transportation.
[0003] Existing methods for determining chemical compatibility primarily rely on testing, which carries inherent risks and involves relatively complex procedures. Limited by the number of personnel and equipment available, it is difficult to quickly determine chemical compatibility. Currently, the main standards referenced for chemical compatibility testing include: GJB5891.12-2006 Test Methods for Pyrotechnic Agents Part 12: Vacuum Stability Test - Pressure Sensor Method; GJB5891.15-2006 Test Methods for Pyrotechnic Agents Part 15: Compatibility Test - Microcalorimetry; and GJB5891.17-2006 Test Methods for Pyrotechnic Agents Part 17: Compatibility Test - Differential Thermal Analysis and Differential Scanning Calorimetry. These standards primarily determine chemical compatibility by testing the change in gas volume or the exothermic behavior after mixing. CN103983796A "Methods for Testing the Compatibility of Chemicals", CN102680354A "Methods and Applications for Determining the Compatibility of Chemicals", and CN103969289A "Methods for Testing the Compatibility of Chemicals by Microcalorimetry" are similar in principle to the above-mentioned testing standards. They use different testing methods to test the change in gas volume or the exothermic behavior of chemical mixtures to determine whether the chemicals are compatible.
[0004] Analysis of existing methods for determining chemical compatibility reveals the following problems: 1) Determining chemical compatibility through experimental testing carries certain safety risks, and the testing procedures are relatively cumbersome. Limited by the number of experimental personnel and equipment, it is difficult to quickly determine the compatibility of chemicals in a short period of time; 2) Existing testing methods can determine the compatibility of chemical mixtures, but do not provide specific reaction hazards and harmful consequences, including combustion, explosion, gas generation, exothermic reactions, generation of toxic substances, corrosion, etc. Summary of the Invention

[0063] The present invention will be described in detail below through examples, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0064] Example 1
[0065] Example 1 is used to illustrate the process of quickly determining the compatibility of blind samples 1# and 2# and determining the mixing reaction hazard between the two.
[0066] (1) Blind samples 1# and 2# are respectively filled in 2 mL transparent glass bottles. The original Raman spectra of the two samples are collected respectively using a handheld Raman spectrometer, and the Raman shift and intensity signals corresponding to the original Raman spectra are stored in the handheld Raman spectrometer;
[0067] (2) Using the preprocessing algorithm in the cloud computing system matched with the handheld Raman spectrometer, data processing operations such as data smoothing and baseline correction are performed on the original Raman spectra of blind samples 1# and 2# to obtain the Raman shift and intensity signals of the preprocessed Raman spectra of blind samples 1# and 2#. The preprocessed Raman spectra of blind samples 1# and 2# are shown in Figure 2 and 3 ;
[0068] (3) The Raman shift and intensity signals of the preprocessed blind samples 1# and 2# are automatically input into the spectrum feature signal analysis software in the cloud computing system. The peak with the largest Raman peak intensity ratio of blind samples 1# and 2# is selected as the characteristic peak through the Raman relative intensity calculation formula, thereby determining the characteristic peak position and corresponding Raman shift value of blind samples 1# and 2#.
[0069] (4) The Raman shift values corresponding to the characteristic peaks of blind samples 1# and 2# are automatically substituted into the Raman characteristic peak and active group association database in the spectrum characteristic signal analysis software. The comparison algorithm in the software obtains that the active group represented by the Raman shift of the characteristic peak of blind sample 1# is (C-NO2) and the active group represented by the Raman shift of the characteristic peak of blind sample 2# is (RRC=O).
[0070] (5) The active group information of blind samples 1# and 2# is automatically input into the reaction group analysis software in the cloud computing system. By comparison algorithm, the reaction group information corresponding to the active group of blind sample 1# is nitroalkane and the reaction group information corresponding to the active group of blind sample 2# is ketone from the 22 reaction group information databases associated with the active group.
[0071] (6) The reaction group information of blind samples 1# and 2# is automatically input into the reactivity analysis software in the cloud computing system. The reactivity analysis software contains a chemical reaction group reaction matrix (22×22), which contains 22 reaction groups, as well as the hazard information and harmful consequences of the two-way mixing reaction of the reaction groups.
[0072] (7) The reactivity analysis software first uses a comparison algorithm to compare the reaction group information of input blind samples 1# and 2# with the reaction groups in the chemical reaction group reaction matrix. Then, it performs cross-analysis by the row where the corresponding nitroalkane reaction group is located and the column where the ketone reaction group is located to obtain the corresponding reaction hazard information and harmful consequences at the matrix intersection point. The result is: the mixture of blind sample 1# and blind sample 2# can trigger a detonation. Therefore, the two are incompatible and should not be mixed.
[0073] (8) The compatibility analysis results of blind samples 1# and 2#, stating that "the mixture of blind sample 1# and blind sample 2# can trigger a detonation, therefore they are incompatible and should not be mixed," were fed back to the user via a handheld Raman spectrometer. In Example 1, the time required from acquiring the spectra of blind samples 1# and 2# from the Raman spectrometer to the cloud computing system returning the compatibility analysis results to the spectrometer was approximately 90 seconds. No mixing reaction experiments were involved in the determination process, ensuring good safety.
[0074] Comparative Example 1
[0075] Referring to "Test Methods for Pyrotechnic Agents Part 17: Compatibility Tests - Differential Thermal Analysis and Differential Scanning Calorimetry GJB5891.17-2006", compatibility tests were conducted on blind samples 1# and 2#.
[0076] (1) Take blind samples 1# and 2# at a mass ratio of 1:1, mix them evenly, and prepare a mixed sample. Weigh 0.7 mg of the mixed sample and pour it into the stainless steel crucible of the differential scanning calorimeter, number it 01, and cover it with a cover plate. At the same time, weigh 0.7 mg of alumina as a reference and pour it into the same crucible, number it 02, and cover it with a cover plate.
[0077] (2) Predict the differential scanning calorimeter for 20 minutes, then place crucibles 01 and 02 into the heating furnace of the differential scanning calorimeter, set the heating rate to 0.5℃ / min, and conduct a heating test on the two crucibles.
[0078] (3) The experiment was stopped when the first decomposition peak appeared on the DSC curve;
[0079] (4) Compare the peak temperature of the mixed sample with the peak temperature of the reference sample, and calculate the change in the first decomposition peak temperature of the mixed sample relative to the reference sample (ΔT). max ), ΔT max If the temperature is greater than 5.0℃, then blind samples 1# and 2# are determined to be incompatible. The test takes approximately 2.5 hours.
[0080] By comparing the compatibility determination process and results of blind samples 1# and 2# in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that both determinations indicate incompatibility. However, the determination result given in Example 1 is more specific, providing the harmful consequences of mixing blind samples 1# and 2#. Furthermore, Example 1 does not require a mixing reaction experiment, reducing experimental safety risks. In addition, the Raman spectroscopy acquisition and compatibility analysis procedure does not require sample pretreatment, is simple to operate, requires less time, and is computationally efficient, making it more advantageous than the compatibility test in Comparative Example 1.
[0081] Example 2
[0082] Example 2 illustrates the process of rapidly determining the compatibility of blind samples 3# and 4# and identifying the risk of mixed reaction between the two.

[0084] (2) Using the preprocessing algorithm integrated with the benchtop Raman spectrometer, data processing such as data smoothing and baseline correction were performed on the original Raman spectra of blind samples 3# and 4# to obtain the Raman shift and intensity signals of the preprocessed Raman spectra of blind samples 3# and 4#. The preprocessed Raman spectra of blind samples 3# and 4# are shown below. Figure 4 and 5 ;
[0085] (3) The Raman shift and intensity signals of the pre-processed blind samples 3# and 4# are automatically input into the spectrum feature signal analysis software integrated in the benchtop Raman spectrometer. The peak with the largest Raman peak intensity ratio of blind samples 3# and 4# is selected as the characteristic peak through the Raman relative intensity calculation formula, thereby determining the characteristic peak position and corresponding Raman shift value of blind samples 3# and 4#.
[0086] (4) The Raman shift values corresponding to the characteristic peaks of blind samples 3# and 4# are automatically substituted into the Raman characteristic peak and active group association database in the spectrum characteristic signal analysis software. The comparison algorithm in the software obtains that the active group represented by the Raman shift of the characteristic peak of blind sample 3# is (Ar-NH2) and the active group represented by the Raman shift of the characteristic peak of blind sample 4# is (-OO-).
[0087] (5) The active group information of blind samples 3# and 4# is automatically input into the reaction group analysis software integrated in the desktop Raman spectrometer. By comparison algorithm, the reaction group information corresponding to the active group of blind sample 3# is obtained from the 73 reaction group information database associated with the active group, which is aromatic amine and the reaction group information corresponding to the active group of blind sample 4# is organic peroxide.
[0088] (6) The reaction group information of blind samples 3# and 4# is automatically input into the reactivity analysis software integrated in the desktop Raman spectrometer. The reactivity analysis software contains a chemical reaction group reaction matrix (73×73), which contains 73 reaction groups, as well as the hazard information and harmful consequences of the pairwise mixing reaction of the reaction groups.
[0089] (7) The reactivity analysis software first uses a comparison algorithm to compare the reaction group information of the input blind samples 3# and 4# with the reaction groups in the chemical reaction group reaction matrix. Then, it performs cross-analysis by the row where the corresponding aromatic amine reaction group is located and the column where the organic peroxide reaction group is located to obtain the corresponding reaction hazard information and harmful consequences at the matrix intersection point. The result is: after the blind samples 3# and 4# are mixed, a slight explosive decomposition may occur after a very short time.
[0090] (8) The compatibility analysis results of blind samples 3# and 4#, “After blind sample 3# and blind sample 4# are mixed, a slight explosive decomposition may occur after a very short time”, are fed back to the user through the tabletop Raman spectrometer.
[0091] In Example 2, the time required from acquiring the spectra of blind samples 3# and 4# using a Raman spectrometer to obtaining the compatibility analysis results was approximately 80 seconds. No mixing reaction experiments were involved in the determination process, indicating good safety.
