Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of analytical technology, and in particular to a system and method for analyzing and detecting trace permanent impurity gas components in liquid and gas. Background Art
[0002] At present, there is an increasing demand for the detection of trace gas impurity components in high-purity gas, liquid and other samples, such as in the field of fuel cell hydrogen, groundwater detection, and insulating oil detection. Existing detection methods often require multiple detection instruments to perform detection in sequence, which not only leads to high detection costs, but also complex operations and high time costs. The detection accuracy is insufficient, and many unknown impurities are still difficult to be effectively detected by existing technologies, which undoubtedly brings considerable challenges to the research and application of related fields.
[0003] At present, the country has clear requirements for the content of gas impurity components such as oxygen, argon, nitrogen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide in pure hydrogen, high-purity hydrogen, ultra-pure hydrogen, and hydrogen used in proton exchange membrane fuel cell vehicles. There are many methods for detecting impurity gas components in hydrogen, usually gas chromatography is the main method, but due to the large number of gas components involved in the detection, multiple instruments are required to carry out the detection to complete the relevant work.
[0004] Prior art CN202211463375.2 discloses a gas chromatography system and method for detecting permanent gases in fuel cell hydrogen, the gas chromatography system comprising a first analysis channel, a second analysis channel and a carrier gas channel, so that hydrogen can achieve separation of CO, O2, Ar, N2, CH4 in the first and second chromatographic columns, separation of CO2 in the third chromatographic column, and separation of H2 in the fourth chromatographic column. However, this solution cannot achieve separation and calculation of total hydrocarbons.
[0005] In addition to the detection of hydrogen for fuel cells, there is also a need for impurity detection for other high-purity gases. However, the detection schemes in the prior art can often only be used for samples from a specific source, lacking flexibility, that is, a set of detection systems can only be used for samples from a specific source. Therefore, how to achieve the detection of multi-component gas impurities in samples from different sources through the same set of detection methods is also a problem that needs to be solved at present. The standard detection methods for liquids (groundwater, insulating oil, etc.) in the prior art include DZ / T0064.74-2021, GB / T 17623-2017, etc., in which helium (He), hydrogen (H2), oxygen (O2), nitrogen (N2), argon (Ar), methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and other gases dissolved or escaped in liquids (groundwater, insulating oil, etc.) are measured. The prior art also requires multiple sets of gas chromatographs to be used together, which is complicated to operate, time-consuming, and the detection sensitivity and precision are difficult to meet the requirements. Summary of the invention

[0044] Example
[0045] This embodiment provides a system for analyzing and detecting trace permanent impurity gas components in liquids and gases. Figure 1As shown, it includes a first valve 1, a first quantitative ring 2, a second quantitative ring 3, a third quantitative ring 4, and a fourth quantitative ring 5, which are connected in series. The first quantitative ring 2 is connected to the sample inlet to be tested through the first valve 1; it also includes: a first channel: including a first carrier gas He, a first backwash column 6, a second valve 7, a first pre-column 8, and a first chromatographic column 9 that are connected in sequence; a first separation channel: including a second carrier gas He, a first front flush column 10, a first chromatographic column 9, a particle trap 11, and a HID detector; a first exhaust channel: including a first carrier gas He, a first backwash column 6, a first pre-column 8, a first exhaust valve 12, and a first purge gas outlet 13 connected by a pipeline; a second channel: including a third carrier gas H2, a second backwash column 14, a third valve 15, a second pre-column 16, and a second chromatographic column 17; a second separation channel: including a fourth carrier gas H2, a second front flush column 18, a second Chromatographic column 17, TCD isothermal furnace 19, TCD detector 20; second exhaust channel, including the third carrier gas H2, the second backwash column 14, the second pre-column 16, the second exhaust valve 21, and the second purge gas outlet 23 connected by pipelines; third channel: including the fifth carrier gas H2, the third pre-flush column 24, the fourth valve 25, the third chromatographic column 26 and the FID detector; the fourth channel, including the sixth carrier gas N2, the third backwash column 27, the fifth valve 28, the third pre-column 29, and the fourth chromatographic column 30; the third separation channel: including the seventh carrier gas N2, the fourth pre-flush column 31, the fourth chromatographic column 30, the methanator 32, and the FID detector; the third exhaust channel, including the sixth carrier gas N2, the third backwash column 27, the third pre-column 29, the third exhaust valve 33, and the third purge gas outlet 34; a methanator hydrogen supply point 35 is also provided below the methanator 32. The sample to be tested in the first quantitative loop 2 is transmitted to the first chromatographic column 9 through the first channel; and then the HID detector of the first separation channel is used to detect H2, Ar, O2, and N2; the sample to be tested in the second quantitative loop 3 is transmitted to the second chromatographic column 17 through the second channel; and then the TCD detector 20 of the second separation channel is used to detect He; the sample to be tested in the third quantitative loop 4 is transmitted to the third chromatographic column 26 through the third channel for separation, and then the total hydrocarbons are detected through the FID detector; the sample to be tested in the fourth quantitative loop 5 is transmitted to the fourth chromatographic column 30 through the fourth channel for separation, and then the FID detector of the third separation channel is used to detect CO, CO2, and CH4.
[0046] The first and second carrier gases are He, the third, fourth and fifth carrier gases are H2, and the sixth and seventh carrier gases are N2. The first chromatographic column 9, the second chromatographic column 17 and the fourth chromatographic column 30 are molecular sieve columns, and the third chromatographic column 26 is a capillary column.
[0047] Channel 1: This channel is used for the analysis of inert gases.
[0048] The sample is introduced into the first pre-column 8 through the valve of the injection / backwash column. After H2, Ar, O2 and N2 are eluted to the molecular sieve column, the first pre-column 8 is backwashed and all the heavier components are discharged from the first purge gas outlet 13. The first chromatographic column 9 is a molecular sieve column, which separates H2, Ar, O2 and N2 in an isothermal furnace. Detection is performed by a helium ionizer.
[0049] Channel 2: This channel is used for the analysis of helium.
[0050] The sample is introduced into the second pre-column 16 by the injection / backwash valve. After He and H2 are eluted into the second chromatographic column 17, i.e., the molecular sieve column, the first pre-column 8 is backwashed, and all heavier components are discharged from the second purge gas outlet 23. The molecular sieve column separates He and H2 in an isothermal furnace. Detection is performed by a thermal conductivity detector (TCD).
[0051] Channel 3: This channel is used to analyze the total hydrocarbon content (THC).
[0052] The sample is introduced directly into the third chromatographic column 26, i.e., the capillary column, by the gas injection valve. The hydrocarbons are not retained and pass through the capillary column as a group, forming a composite peak, producing the result of total hydrocarbons, i.e., total hydrocarbons. Detection is by a flame ionization detector (FID).
[0053] Channel 4: This channel is used for the analysis of trace CO, methane and CO2.
[0054] The sample enters the third pre-column 29 through the gas sampling / backwash column valve. After eluting carbon dioxide (CO2) to the fourth chromatographic column 30, the valve is switched to backwash the remaining components to the third exhaust port. Carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane are separated on the fourth chromatographic column 30 and converted into methane in the methanator 32. Detection is performed by a flame ionization detector (FID).
[0055] One implementation method of this embodiment is the detection of high-purity hydrogen. The hydrogen is stored in a gas cylinder. The gas in the gas cylinder enters the GC detection system through a valve, and enters different detection channels through the switches of various valves in the instrument. After different separation methods, the target object is detected in the detector.
[0056] The gas collection method in the liquid (groundwater, insulating oil, etc.) is the drainage gas collection method or the vacuum degassing method, and the collected gas enters the GC system through the headspace injection method. The air intake in the existing groundwater detection standard is only 100uL, and it is a manual injection. This process will produce a more obvious error. In addition, the detection requires multiple injections, and the chromatographic column and operating conditions required for each injection are different. The whole process takes a long time, and its environmental changes and human operation errors will cause the result to be offset. The present invention provides positive pressure in the headspace bottle by headspace injection, and then the gas enters the quantitative loop of the headspace injector, and then enters the gas chromatograph with the carrier gas. In addition, the gas in the liquid can also directly enter the chromatogram according to the pressure difference in the headspace bottle. The injection port valve in this experimental instrument opens at 0.01min and switches at 0.1min. At this time, the gas sample has filled the 4 quantitative loops in the 4 channels, and the volume of each quantitative loop is 0.5mL. In this experiment, the volume of the headspace bottle is 20mL, of which the gas accounts for about 2 / 3. Therefore, the gas volume can meet the requirements. As long as the injection rate is controlled, each quantitative loop in the detector can be filled within the specified time. Secondly, more gas can be obtained by selecting a larger headspace bottle.
[0057] The present invention selects the headspace sampling method for the detection of gas in liquid, reduces human error, increases the injection volume, reduces the uncertainty range, and improves the accuracy of the result. Secondly, through one-time injection, multi-channel, and multi-detector simultaneous determination, the error caused by time is reduced, time is saved, and rapid detection is achieved. Furthermore, each detection channel realizes accurate separation of the target substance by setting a pre-column, reduces impurity interference, and the chromatographic peaks are well separated without impurity peaks.
