HYDROGEN SULFIDE, MERCAPTAN SULFUR, AND CARBONYL SULFIDE IN HYDROCARBON GASES BY POTENTIOMETRIC TITRATION UOP Method 212-05 SCOPE This method is for determining hydrogen sulfide (H2S), mercaptan sulfur (RSH) and carbonyl sulfide (COS) in gaseou

5、s hydrocarbons and in typical liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) consisting of C3and/or C4hydrocarbons. Also covered is the determination of mercaptan sulfur in LPG which may contain a wide range of hydrocarbon types ranging from ethane to such gasoline boiling range hydrocarbons as pentane and hexane. E

6、ach sulfur type can be determined from less than 1 to several thousand mass-ppm sulfur (less than 0.1 to several thousand grains per 100 cu ft).

10、er from a sample cylinder or directly from a refinery stream according to the procedures described in UOP Method 516, is scrubbed first through a potassium hydroxide solution and then through a monoethanolamine solution. The potassium hydroxide solution contains chelating agents which inhibits the o

11、xidation of sulfur compounds by chelating heavy metals. A potentiometric titration of the absorbed hydrogen sulfide and mercaptan sulfur in the potassium hydroxide solution follows, using either an aqueous or an alcoholic silver nitrate titrant. The monoethanolamine solution, which contains the abso

12、rbed carbonyl sulfide is titrated potentiometrically with alcoholic silver nitrate in an acidic titration solvent. The electrode system for both titrations is a silver/silver sulfide electrode with a glass reference electrode. The concentration of each analyzed component is calculated from the titra

13、tion curve. Either an automatic (preferred) or a manually-operated titrator may be used. APPARATUS References to catalog numbers and suppliers are included as a convenience to the method user. Other suppliers may be used if equivalent performance can be obtained. In addition to the apparatus listed

14、below, all of the sampling-related apparatus specified in UOP Method 516 for C3-C4fractions is also required for this method.
