Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of water quality analysis and detection, and more specifically, relates to a method for determining haloacetic acid and halogen oxide. Background Art

[0002] When chlorine is used to disinfect drinking water, in addition to trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs) are the second most common and harmful disinfection byproducts, accounting for 13% of the total disinfection byproducts, but their toxicity is over 90%. Therefore, the detection of HAAs is of great significance to ensure the quality of water supply. Halogen oxides are an important class of inorganic DBPs, mainly including BrO3 - 、ClO3 - and ClO4 - For example, bromate (BrO3 - ) is the most important disinfection byproduct in the process of ozone oxidation of water bodies containing high concentrations of Br-. In addition, bromate (BrO3 - ) is a Class 2B carcinogen. my country's Drinking Water Standard (GB / T5749-2006) limits the concentrations of dichloroacetic acid, trichloroacetic acid and bromate, with maximum limits of 50μg / L, 100μg / L and 10μg / L respectively. Establishing a sensitive, simple and rapid analytical method for haloacetic acid and bromate is the basis for understanding the contamination status of these substances in drinking water and their potential health risks.

[0003] At present, there are many methods for determining haloacetic acids. The most mainstream methods are the standard method provided by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA, 552.3) and the standard test method "Standard Test Method for Drinking Water - Part 10: Disinfection Byproduct Index" (GB / T 5750-2023) supporting China's "Sanitary Standards for Drinking Water". Both of these detection methods require derivatization of water samples and then gas chromatography detection. Such methods have problems such as complex operation process, low enrichment multiple, and high detection limit, and therefore need to be further improved.

[0004] The greatest advantage of using liquid chromatography technology to determine HAAs in drinking water is that derivatization is not required. Common methods include ion chromatography (IC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), etc. USEPA standard method 557 uses IC-ESI-MS / MS technology to determine 9 kinds of HAAs. The sample can be directly injected. The detection limit of this method is 0.025 - 0.25 μg / L, and the entire separation process takes 55 minutes (A.D. Zaffiro, M. Zimmerman, B.V. Pepich, Rosanne W. Slingsby, R.F. Jack, Christopher A. Pohl, D.J. Munch. EPA United States Agency Environmental Protection, 2009). HAAs are almost completely ionized in water (ionization degree > 99%). Traditional reversed-phase liquid chromatography columns have poor retention of HAAs. Therefore, an ion-pair reagent needs to be added to the mobile phase to convert ionic HAAs into adduct molecular states and then separated. Due to the use of ion-pair reagents, the consumption of drugs increases and the chromatographic column needs to be equilibrated for a long time for each injection. Summary of the Invention

[0005] 1. Problems to be Solved

[0006] In view of the problems such as the long analysis time of existing haloacetic acids, the present invention provides a method for determining haloacetic acids and halogen oxides, which can simultaneously analyze haloacetic acids and halogen oxides.

Those skilled in the art make some non-essential improvements and adjustments based on the content of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0078] Example 1

[0079] Standard curve and limit of quantification

[0080] 1) Preparation of standard solution: Mix known concentrations of dichloroacetic acid, trichloroacetic acid and BrO3 - to prepare a mixed standard solution with the same concentration of each single disinfection by-product, place it in a brown injection vial, and prepare standard working solutions with mass concentrations of 0.5, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 μg / L.

[0081] 2) The separation column used was an AG 18 anion analytical column (2×50 mm) from Thermo Fisher Scientific, with a flow rate of 0.3 mL / min, an injection volume of 10 μL, and a column temperature of 30 °C; mobile phase A was 0.7 mol / L ammonia aqueous solution, and mobile phase B was acetonitrile. The liquid phase used gradient elution as shown in Table 2;

[0082] Table 2 Liquid Phase Gradient Elution Program Table

[0083]

[0084]

[0085] 3) The mass spectrometry used a QTRAP 5500 mass spectrometer from AB SCIEX. The ion source was an electrospray ionization source (ESI). The triple quadrupole mass spectrometry used a flow injection injection mode to inject a single standard sample, namely two haloacetic acids including dichloroacetic acid (DCAA) and trichloroacetic acid (TCAA), and BrO3 - . The mass spectrometry used the multiple reaction monitoring mode. The ion source parameters were: curtain gas was 30 L / min, collision gas was medium speed, temperature was 450 °C, ion source gas 1 was 40 L / min, and ion source gas 2 was 40 L / min;

[0086] 4) In the mixed standard solution, calibration curves were constructed for each analyte in the concentration range of 0.5 μg / L to 100 μg / L. By performing eight repeated measurements on the mixed standard containing DCAA, TCAA, and BrO3 - , the detection limit and quantification limit of the newly established gradient elution, non-suppressed IC-ESI-MS / MS method based on the AG18 column were determined. The concentrations of DCAA, TCAA, and BrO3 - in the mixed standard were 1.0 μg / L, 1.0 μg / L, and 0.5 μg / L respectively;

[0087] 5) Using the concentration of each disinfection by-product in the standard solution as the abscissa and the peak area as the ordinate, standard working curves were plotted respectively. The results are shown in Table 3. All target analytes achieved satisfactory linearity, and the determination coefficient (R 2 ) was higher than 0.995.

[0088] Table 3 Standard Curves and Correlation Coefficient R of Three Disinfection By-Products 2

[0089] Equation <![CDATA[Linear coefficient (R 2 )]]> DCAA y = 1264.42x + 518.42 0.9963 TCAA y = 293.68x + 481.55 0.9954 <![CDATA[BrO3 - > y = 653.71x + 470.89 0.9957

[0090] 6) The limit of detection (LOD) was calculated as the standard deviation (SD) × Student's t-value. It was measured 8 times with a degree of freedom of n - 1 = 7. At the 99% confidence level, t was 3. Therefore, LOD = 3 × SD. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was calculated as 3 × LOD. The calculation results are shown in Table 4. All three analytes exhibited relatively low limits of quantification: 0.90 μg / L for DCAA, 0.99 μg / L for TCAA, and - 0.66 μg / L for BrO3. This means that this rapid method is very suitable for high-throughput quantification of DBPs in drinking water treatment plants and environmental monitoring agencies because the LOQ is much lower than the limits specified in the drinking water quality standards of China, the World Health Organization, and the US Environmental Protection Agency.

[0109] 5) The test results are shown in Table 6 below. The low, medium and high concentration spiked recovery rates of the three disinfection by-products in tap water were good, all between 70% and 110%, and the deviation between multiple measurements was small, between 1.8% and 5.6%.
