Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical detection equipment, and in particular to a hydrocarbon determination device and a hydrocarbon composition determination method. Background Art
[0002] Petroleum hydrocarbons are one of the widely existing organic pollutants in the environment, including gasoline, kerosene, diesel, lubricating oil, paraffin and asphalt. They are a mixture of various hydrocarbons (normal alkanes, branched alkanes, cycloalkanes, aromatics) and a small amount of other organic matter.
[0003] With the development of science and technology, inspection technology is changing with each passing day, and advanced inspection instruments are constantly updated. Especially with the improvement of the automation level of instruments and the miniaturization of instruments, the functions of instruments are constantly enhanced. The addition of various automatic detection and automatic control functions makes the instrument more compact and the structure more complex. The hydrocarbon analyzer is an instrument used to determine the volume fraction of aromatic hydrocarbons, olefins and saturated hydrocarbons in petroleum fractions. Its working principle is to take a certain volume of sample and inject it into the activated analytical column. A thin layer of silica gel containing a mixture of fluorescent dyes is installed in the separation section of the adsorption column. When the sample is completely adsorbed on the silica gel, an organic reagent is added to desorb the sample, and the sample is pressurized to flow down the column. The various hydrocarbons in the sample are separated into aromatic hydrocarbons, olefins and saturated hydrocarbons according to their adsorption capacity. The fluorescent dye is also selectively separated from the hydrocarbon instrument, so that the interface of various hydrocarbon regions is clearly visible under ultraviolet light, and the volume fraction of each hydrocarbon is calculated according to the length of each hydrocarbon color band region in the adsorption column.
[0004] At present, the commonly used hydrocarbon measuring instrument in the laboratory is composed of gas system, vibration part, scale and scale indication, system lighting, ultraviolet light detection and other components. It adopts a closed and integrated structure, with two imported precision adsorption columns built in. The instrument is equipped with a cleaning device. After each test, it is not necessary to remove the adsorption column from the instrument. The adsorption column can be cleaned conveniently and quickly on the instrument. The ultraviolet lamp is built-in to avoid harm to the human body, and the hydrocarbon content of liquid petroleum products can be measured safely and accurately.
[0005] However, the temperature is not controlled in the prior art. When the indoor temperature is low, the oil is prone to solidification. After measuring a certain volume of sample and injecting it into a glass analysis column filled with activated silica gel, the sample is easy to condense here, which slows down the separation speed of the sample during the analysis and prolongs the test time, ultimately resulting in low analysis efficiency, high test energy consumption, increased analysis costs, and the separation effect of the sample components seriously affects the accuracy of the test data. Therefore, it is necessary to effectively monitor the temperature to ensure efficient separation of the sample. In addition, organic reagents are used in the process of sample filling and cleaning. The reagents are highly volatile and seriously endanger the health of the operators. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the issues of sample solidification and safety and environmental protection in order to achieve rapid and accurate determination of the hydrocarbon content in oil products.

[0048] The hydrocarbon measuring instrument is an instrument for measuring the volume fraction of aromatics, olefins and saturated hydrocarbons in petroleum fractions. The measuring method is to use a fluorescent indicator to make the main hydrocarbons in the petroleum product appear on the silica gel adsorption column, and then calculate its volume percentage content. It is suitable for the method specified in GB / T11132 as a quality measurement indicator for fuel oil such as engine fuel and aviation fuel. However, the instrument has the disadvantage that the experimental measurement results are easily affected by the environment, especially the indoor temperature. Temperature is a major controlled parameter in the detection process and a common process variable. When the indoor temperature is low, it is easy to cause the separation speed in the sample analysis process to slow down. Gas, coal and diesel are very likely to solidify, making it difficult to separate the sample in the analytical column, resulting in a long analysis time and high energy consumption, which will not only reduce the analysis efficiency and increase the analysis cost, but also affect the accuracy of the data; in addition, organic reagents are used in the sample filling and cleaning process, and the reagents are highly active, which seriously endangers the health of the operator.

Turn on the vibrator and fill the silica gel while vibrating. When the separation section is half filled, stop vibrating, fill 3-5mm fluorescent indicator, then fill some silica gel, and then start vibrating again, so that the silica gel is filled to 75mm in the feeding section, and then stop vibrating after 4 minutes. Turn on the air purification device. Adjust the wind speed to 10m / s.
[0087] 2) Take samples
[0088] Use a sampler to extract 0.75±0.03ml of standard sample, insert the needle into the silica gel 30mm and inject the sample to allow the sample to be fully adsorbed.
[0089] 3) Inject reagent
[0090] After all the samples are adsorbed, inject isopropanol into the feeding section to the spherical joint, connect the top of the adsorption column to the air supply system, and clamp the spherical ground joint with a clamp.
[0091] 4) Pressurization
[0092] Maintain the pressure at 14kPa±2kPa for 2.5min±0.5min to allow the liquid to move downward along the adsorption column. Then increase the pressure to 34kPa±2kPa and maintain it for another 2.5min±0.5min, and finally adjust the air pressure to an appropriate pressure to allow the liquid to move downward.
[0093] 5) Start the temperature control device and adjust the temperature to 30°C.

[0110] Comparative Example 1
[0111] The operation in the comparative example was repeated. The hydrocarbon composition of the diesel sample was measured using the hydrocarbon measuring device of the present invention.
[0112] 1. Test instruments and reagents
[0113] Instrument: The hydrocarbon determination device of the present invention.
[0114] Silica gel: Meet the following specifications: Surface area 430-530m 2 / g; pH value of 5% aqueous suspension is 5.5-7.0; 955℃ ignition loss (mass fraction): 4.5-10.0%; iron content (calculated as Fe2O3, dry basis): ≤50mg / kg.
[0115] Determination of pH value: Calibrate the pH meter with standard buffer solutions with pH values of 4 and 7, place 5g of silica gel in a 250mL beaker, add 100mL of water and a stirring rod, stir on a magnetic stirrer for 20 minutes, and then use a calibrated pH meter to determine its pH value. Silica gel should be activated before use, placed in a shallow container, dried at 175°C for 3 hours, and placed in a sealed container while hot to prevent moisture.
[0116] Fluorescent indicator dyed silica gel: Standard dyed silica gel is obtained by recrystallizing Oil Red AB4 and olefin and aromatic dye purification parts obtained by chromatographic adsorption, and depositing them on silica gel through a specific procedure. Dyed silica gel should be stored in a dark place under normal pressure nitrogen, so that the dyed silica gel can have a service life of at least 5 years. It is best to take out a part of the dyed silica gel for daily use and put it in a small bottle to avoid affecting the service life of most of the dyed silica gel due to frequent use.
[0117] Isoamyl alcohol: analytically pure, content not less than 99%.
[0118] Compressed gas: air (or nitrogen), delivered to the top of the adsorption column at a controllable pressure range of 0kPa-103kPa.
[0119] Buffer solutions: pH values are 4 and 7 respectively.
[0120] Diesel: From a domestic petrochemical plant.
[0121] 2. Test steps
[0122] 1) Filling with silica gel
[0123] Place a small piece of absorbent cotton between the spherical ground mouth and the spherical socket at the end of the cleaned adsorption column, and clamp it with a small steel clamp. Turn on the vibrator and fill the silica gel while vibrating. When the separation section is half filled, stop vibrating, fill 3-5mm fluorescent indicator, then fill some silica gel, and then start vibrating again, so that the silica gel is filled to 75mm in the feeding section, and then stop vibrating after 4 minutes. Turn on the air purification device. Adjust the wind speed to 10m / s.
[0124] 2) Take samples
[0125] Use a sampler to extract 0.75±0.03ml of standard sample, insert the needle into the silica gel 30mm and inject the sample to allow the sample to be fully adsorbed.
[0126] 3) Inject reagent
[0127] After all the samples are adsorbed, inject isopropanol into the feeding section to the spherical joint, connect the top of the adsorption column to the air supply system, and clamp the spherical ground joint with a clamp.
[0128] 4) Pressurization
[0129] Maintain the pressure at 14kPa±2kPa for 2.5min±0.5min to allow the liquid to move downward along the adsorption column. Then increase the pressure to 34kPa±2kPa and maintain it for another 2.5min±0.5min, and finally adjust the air pressure to an appropriate pressure to allow the liquid to move downward.
[0130] 5) Start the temperature control device and adjust the temperature to 30°C.
[0131] 6) Reading
[0132] When the red alcohol-aromatic interface enters the analysis section about 350mm, quickly mark the interfaces of various hydrocarbons observed under ultraviolet light in the following order (from bottom to top) to measure a set of data. For the non-fluorescent saturated hydrocarbon area, mark the front edge of the sample and the position where the yellow fluorescence first reaches the strongest; for the second part, i.e., the upper end of the olefin area, mark the position where the strong blue fluorescence first appears; for the third part, i.e., the upper end of the aromatic area, mark the upper end of the first red or brown ring.
[0133] 3. Test results
[0134] After the above operation, the area lengths of the aromatic, olefin and saturated hydrocarbon bands were obtained, and the volume percentage of each hydrocarbon was calculated according to formula (1-3). The comparison of the results with and without heating is shown in Table 2.
