[0053] The flame excitation unit is used to eject a flame to excite the element to be detected and the reference element to form a characteristic spectrum, thereby forming the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected;

[0054] The detection unit includes a reflector 4, a dual-channel filter 6, and an infrared camera 7. The reflector 4 images the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected generated by the flame excitation unit, forming a mirror spectrum of the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected. The dual-channel filter 6 separates the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected and its mirror spectrum, respectively acquiring the characteristic spectrum of the element to be detected and the characteristic spectrum of the reference element. The infrared camera 7 acquires the characteristic spectral data of the element to be detected and the reference element, forming an optical signal.

[0055] Data processing unit; used to process and analyze optical signals to obtain the concentration of the element to be detected in the sample.

[0056] The detection unit includes a box body 21 and a box cover 14. A reflector 4 is provided on the inner sidewall 20 of the box body 21. The top of the reflector 4 is tilted away from the inner sidewall 20, forming a defined angle with the inner sidewall 20. The defined angle is 40°. An infrared camera 7 is provided on the box cover 14. The infrared camera 7 is opposite to the reflector 4. A dual-channel filter 6 is provided between the infrared camera 7 and the reflector 4.

[0057] In order to protect the camera, a camera protection box 23 is provided on the cover 14, and an infrared camera 7 is placed inside the camera protection box 23.

[0058] A dual-channel filter bracket 24 is fixed on the camera protection box 23; the dual-channel filter 6 is fixed on the dual-channel filter bracket 24;

[0059] To reduce the impact of the surrounding environment on the detection, the entire detection unit is housed in a box. To ensure portability, extend the lifespan of the flame photometric analyzer, and reduce the fire risk posed by the flame, both the box body 21 and the lid 14 are made of aluminum alloy. With the lid 14 closed, the entire box measures 12×9×20 cm.

[0060] The flame ignition unit includes a blowtorch lighter 15. To create a stable flame and reduce the influence of the surrounding environment, the blowtorch lighter 15 is a windproof type. The blowtorch lighter 15 is equipped with an air inlet and uses butane as fuel, enabling continuous flame emission and flame size adjustment.

The nozzle of the blowtorch lighter 15 passes through the through hole of the fastener 17 and enters the interior of the box body 21. The fastener 17 can fix and support the blowtorch lighter 15, ensuring the stability of the flame.

[0063] A cooling water chamber 13 is provided on the inner wall of the other side wall of the housing 21; a cooling water chamber outlet is provided on the top of the cooling water chamber 13; an exhaust port 12 is provided on the top of the housing 21; the outlet of the cooling water chamber 13 is connected to the exhaust port 12. The flame heats the air in the housing 21, thereby generating local high temperature. The water in the cooling water chamber 13 can absorb heat and form water vapor, which is discharged through the exhaust port 12. The cooling water chamber 13 not only reduces the temperature inside the housing and extends the service life of the portable ratio-type flame photometric analyzer, but also reduces the fire risk caused by the flame.

[0064] The sample introduction unit includes an nebulizer 1 and a T-shaped sample introduction tube; the T-shaped sample introduction tube includes a first sample introduction tube 18 and a second sample introduction tube 19. The first sample introduction tube 18 passes through the side wall of the box body 21 and is connected to the nebulizer 1; the second sample introduction tube 19 is located inside the box body 21. For convenient sample loading, the nebulizer 1 is located on the outside of the box body 21; in order to improve the nebulization effect while being portable, the nebulizer 1 is an ultrasonic nebulizer.

[0065] The top of the second sample inlet tube 19 is provided with a sample outlet, which is close to the nozzle of the spray gun lighter 15. When the atomized sample encounters the flame generated by the nozzle of the spray gun lighter 15, the element to be detected and the reference element form an excited characteristic spectrum, which in turn forms the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected. If the sample outlet 19 is too far from the nozzle of the spray gun lighter 15, the atomized droplets will condense, and the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected will not be formed.

[0066] To facilitate the collection of condensed liquid, the sample injection unit also includes a collection tank 22; the collection tank 22 is located inside the box body 21; the bottom of the second sample injection tube 19 is inserted into the collection tank 22; in order to discharge waste liquid, the collection tank 22 is connected to the waste liquid tank 11 through the waste liquid pipe 16.

[0067] To facilitate the timely removal of liquid condensed from the atomized droplets, the first injection tube 18 is tilted downwards along the direction of the atomized droplets' movement.

[0068] To adjust the amount of mist, an adjustment component is provided at the junction of the first and second injection tubes; the adjustment component includes a glass rod with a conical top; the glass rod is located inside the second injection tube, and the top of the glass rod is located at the junction of the first and second injection tubes; the lower part of the glass rod and the bottom of the second injection tube are fixed by a rubber stopper.

[0069] An infrared camera acquires the intensity of the characteristic spectra of the element to be detected and the reference element, forming an optical signal.

[0070] The data processing unit includes a data transmission line 8 and a smartphone equipped with data processing capabilities. The smartphone with data processing capabilities obtains the content of the analyte based on the ratio of the flame emission spectral intensity of the analyte to that of the reference element and a standard curve.

[0071] The working principle of the portable ratiometric flame photometric analyzer in this embodiment includes:

[0072] A substance containing a reference element is added to the sample solution to be tested, forming a test sample. The test sample is atomized by the nebulizer 1 in the injection unit to form small droplets. The small droplets enter the second injection tube 19 through the first injection tube 18 of the T-shaped injection tube and overflow from the sample outlet at the top of the second injection tube 19. The atomized test sample encounters the flame generated by the nozzle of the spray gun lighter 15, and the test element and the reference element form an excited characteristic spectrum, which in turn forms the emission spectrum of the test flame. The reflector 4 images the emission spectrum of the test flame generated by the flame excitation unit, forming a mirror spectrum of the emission spectrum of the test flame. The dual-channel filter 6 separates the emission spectrum of the test flame and the mirror spectrum of the emission spectrum of the test flame, and obtains the characteristic spectrum of the test element and the characteristic spectrum of the reference element, respectively. The infrared camera 7 acquires the characteristic spectral data of the test element and the reference element, forming an optical signal. The optical signal is transmitted to a smartphone with data processing function through the data transmission line 8. Smartphones with data processing capabilities obtain the content of the element to be measured based on the ratio of the flame emission spectral intensity of the element to be measured to that of the reference element and the standard curve.

[0073] Example 2

[0074] Using the portable ratiometric flame photometric analyzer described in Example 1 to analyze K in the sample + Test:

[0075] Since the sample to be tested does not contain cesium, and the emission wavelength of cesium atoms is 850 nm, which is within the range that the infrared camera can capture; at the same time, cesium ions (Cs) + The ionization energy of sodium ions (approximately 375.7 kJ / mol) is lower than that of sodium ions (Na+). + (approximately 495.8 kJ / mol), therefore Cs + Than Na + Easier to activate; Cs + By inhibiting Na + The excitation of potassium ions (K) reduces the intensity of the yellow flame, thereby increasing the concentration of potassium ions (K). + The signals from other ions, such as Cs, are more prominent. Therefore, Cs was chosen as the reference element.

[0076] The specific operation process is as follows:

[0077] (1) Wash the nebulizer three times with deionized water, and simultaneously spray and rinse the T-type injection tube;

[0078] (2) Turn on the control program of the infrared camera, adjust the shooting parameters and exposure value; ignite the torch lighter, collect images of the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected in the deionized water and the mirror spectrum of the emission spectrum of the flame to be detected, transmit them to the built-in storage of the smartphone through the data transmission line, and store them as the background intensity of the flame.

[0079] (3) Use 1 mL containing K + and Cs + The nebulizer and T-type injection tube were rinsed with the solution to be tested;

[0080] (4) Add 2 mL of standard solution to the sample cell of the nebulizer. The standard solution contains K at gradient concentrations (0~200 μM). + and the specified concentration (100 μM) of Cs + After adjusting the injection volume, the nebulizer is started to spray the test solution into the flame. The emission spectra of the flame to be detected and its mirror image are continuously captured in the two sampling channels of 770 nm and 850 nm. The data is then transmitted to the built-in storage of the smartphone via the data transmission line and stored.

[0081] (5) Open the image processing software on your smartphone, import the saved image, select the central region of the flame image for analysis, use the average brightness of multiple images as the analysis signal, perform nonlinear correction according to Equation 1, and use Cs + As a reference signal, K + With Cs + luminance ratio (H K / H Cs ( ) is used as the detection signal; a standard curve is obtained.

[0082] Flame emission spectra recorded by infrared cameras, ideally, show a direct correlation between the brightness value and intensity of the flame emission spectrum. However, since the saturation value of smartphone image brightness is 255, the image brightness gradually approaches saturation within a higher concentration range, causing the standard curve to exhibit significant nonlinear bending. Therefore, nonlinear correction is required. To address this, a correction model based on the dimensionless parameter H (see Equation 1) is proposed, which broadens the linear range of the standard curve. Under the experimental conditions used, the brightness values ​​GV and K... + The relationship curve between concentration C and concentration C can be fitted using the following regression model: The formula is rearranged and transformed to obtain formula 1. Figure 3 In the diagram, curve a represents the image brightness value GV as a function of K. +The change curve of concentration C clearly shows that the brightness response curve is non-linear. Curve b, with the corrected H... k / H Cs For signal analysis, the response curve exhibits a good linear relationship.

[0083] Formula 1;

[0084] In the formula, It is the average background brightness of the flame image. It is the average brightness of the flame image of the sample liquid. k It is a coefficient related to the sensitivity of the camera's image sensor.

[0085] It should be noted that Equation 1 is only applicable to... The case where <220. When When the value approaches 255, the denominator is 255- As the light intensity gradually approaches zero, the measurement error of the calibrated light intensity increases. At this point, the sample can be diluted with deionized water, or the photosensitivity of the infrared camera can be adjusted to reduce the brightness of the captured image.

[0086] The obtained standard curve is as follows Figure 3 As shown.

[0087] Its linear range is 10–200 μM. Based on the principle of a three-fold signal-to-noise ratio (S / N=3), the limit of detection (LOD) is 1.16 μM.

[0088] Example 4

[0089] Real sample testing:

[0090] K in the Xiaoqing River + Detection: Sampling points were located along the Jinan section of the Xiaoqing River, and the air temperature was recorded using a mobile phone sensor. Water samples were collected according to the sampling specifications and the analytical purpose. Before testing, the water samples were filtered through a 0.45 µm filter membrane to remove suspended solids. 5.00 mL of the filtered water sample, diluted twice, was taken and 100 μL of 5.1 mM Cs was added. + Prepare a reference solution and mix thoroughly. Place the mixture in an atomizer and perform a flame test, measuring the ratio of flame image brightness between the sample and the reference. Calculate the K0 of the water sample based on the stored calibration curve. + Concentration; the final detected concentration was 0.344 ± 0.005 mM, which was verified using the emission mode of the PE-A800, and the measured result was 0.339 ± 0.002 mM.

Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art.
