Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of volatile organic compound treatment devices, and in particular to a pretreatment device for soil volatile organic compounds. Background Technology

[0002] Accurate detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in soil is a crucial step in assessing soil pollution and ensuring ecological and environmental safety. Soil VOC pretreatment devices, as the core equipment in this process, can effectively extract and enrich trace amounts of VOCs from complex soil matrices while removing interfering substances such as moisture and particulate matter. This provides pure, high-concentration samples for subsequent instrumental analysis such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Their performance directly affects the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection results, thus occupying an irreplaceable position in the soil VOCs detection process.

[0003] For example, CN223005813U discloses a soil volatile organic compound pretreatment device, which includes a sample bottle, an air inlet pipe, an air outlet pipe, a dehydration tube, and a collection tube. Since the sample bottle, air inlet pipe, air outlet pipe, dehydration tube, and collection tube are all relatively small in size and easy to carry and assemble.

[0004] However, in existing technologies, when sampling humic and clay mineral soils, humic substances are rich in polar groups such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, which can form stable bonds with polar VOCs such as phenols and ketones through hydrogen bonds. The layered structure and surface charge of clay minerals can physically adsorb VOCs through van der Waals forces. This dual adsorption effect makes VOCs tightly attached to the soil matrix. Existing devices such as purge-and-trap rely on physical purging, which can only act on free VOCs. Although heating can increase the activity of VOCs, the temperature increase is limited and it is difficult to completely overcome the binding of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. As a result, a large number of VOCs remain in the soil, which directly causes serious distortion of the detection results. It cannot accurately reflect the true content of VOCs in the soil, may underestimate the degree of pollution, affect the scientific nature of pollution assessment and treatment decisions, and may also lead to poor data reproducibility due to incomplete extraction of target substances, reducing the reliability of the detection method.

[0016] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0017] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways than those described herein, and therefore the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0018] Example 1: As Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a pretreatment device for soil volatile organic compounds, including a closed desorption mechanism 1. The upper part of the closed desorption mechanism 1 is respectively equipped with a dehydration tube 6, a collection tube 8 and a verification tube 10. The closed desorption mechanism 1 includes a base 101. The upper part of the base 101 is threadedly connected to a tank 102, and a porous gas distribution plate 104 is installed inside the base 101. An inert gas storage tank 2 is provided on the side of the closed desorption mechanism 1. A first connecting pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inert gas storage tank 2. The first connecting pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the porous gas distribution plate 104. A heating component 103 is installed on the surface of the tank 102. A regulating valve 4 is installed on the surface of the first connecting pipe 3. One end of the regulating valve 4 passes through the side wall of the base 101 and is fixedly connected to the porous air distribution plate 104. A sealing ring 105 is installed on the surface of the base 101. The bottom of the tank 102 is in contact with the sealing ring 105. One end of the dehydration pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the second connecting pipe 5, and the other end of the dehydration pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the third connecting pipe 7. The second connecting pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the second control valve 12. One end of the third connecting pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the collection pipe 8. The end of the collection pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the fourth connecting pipe 9. One end of the fourth connecting pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the verification pipe 10.

[0019] The specific setup and function of this embodiment are described below. Soil samples with high humus content or high clay mineral content are placed into the tank 102 of the sealed desorption mechanism 1, so that the samples are evenly spread on the upper part of the porous gas distribution plate 104. The tank 102 is rotated and threadedly connected to the base 101. The bottom of the tank 102 is tightly fitted with the sealing ring 105 to ensure that the tank 102 is sealed. The inert gas storage tank 2 is opened, and helium is introduced into the porous gas distribution plate 104 through the first connecting pipe 3. The first regulating valve 4 is adjusted to stabilize the gas flow. The helium forms microbubbles of a certain diameter in the soil through the micropores of the porous gas distribution plate 104. At the same time, the heating component 103 on the surface of the tank 102 is activated to raise the temperature and continue heating. The mixed gas first enters the dehydration tube 6 to trap water vapor; the dried VOCs enter the collection tube 8 through the third connecting tube 7 for enrichment; a small amount of gas enters the verification tube 10 through the fourth connecting tube 9 for detection using the testing equipment.

[0020] By breaking the hydrogen bonds of VOCs at high temperatures and combining this with helium bubble disturbance, the extraction rate of phenolic and ketone VOCs is improved. The dehydration tube 6 effectively removes moisture, avoiding interference with the adsorption efficiency of the collection tube 8. Real-time monitoring of the verification tube 10 ensures complete extraction of VOCs, solving the problems of data distortion and poor reproducibility.

[0021] Example 2: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a No. 5 connecting pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the verification tube 10. A No. 2 control valve 12 is installed on the surface of the No. 5 connecting pipe 11. A No. 6 connecting pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the end of the No. 2 control valve 12. A vacuum pump 14 is installed at the end of the No. 6 connecting pipe 13. A pressure gauge 15 is installed on the upper part of the vacuum pump 14.

[0022] The overall effect of this embodiment is that when the vacuum pump 14 is turned on, the gas in the system is extracted through the No. 6 connecting pipe 13 and the No. 2 control valve 12 (which is in a half-open state at this time). The pressure gauge 15 displays the pressure in the tank 102, which facilitates stable pressure control. Phenolic and ketone VOCs adsorbed by humus in the soil through hydrogen bonds are released from their binding under high temperature and helium bubble disturbance, and flow upward with the helium, entering the No. 2 connecting pipe 5 through the top of the tank 102.

[0023] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model without departing from the technical solution of this utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
