Summary of Screening Method4.1 The screening of organic halides in hydrogen and othergaseous fuels can be challenging due to need to measure totalorganic halides to 0.05 mol mol (50 ppb) to satisfy hydrogenfuel contaminant requirements specified in ISO TS 14687-2,SAE J2719, and the Californi

18、a Code of Regulations.4.2 Organic halides, at any detectable concentration, are notnormally present in hydrogen. Any contamination observedwill be due to improper maintenance or cleaning of equipment;therefore, any positive result should be cause for further testingand evaluation.4.3 A gas chromatog

19、raph equipped with an ECD detectorand gas sampling system with a 1 mL sample loop is typicallyused. The GC column is replaced by a length of blank tubing.Carrier gas and detector flows are set to manufacturersspecifications.4.4 The sample gas is injected into the inlet of the GC-ECDsystem through th

20、e blank tubing and the ECD detector.Asignalis produced as organic halides pass though the detector. Thesignal is sent to a computer, integrator, or other recordingdevice.4.5 This standard is intended to provide a pass/fail test ofpresence of organic halides. Its use to rigorously quantifyorganic hal

21、ides in gaseous fuels has not been demonstrated.Some fuels may contain contaminates that would preclude theuse of this method.5. Significance and Use5.1 Low operating temperature fuel cells such as protonexchange membrane fuel cells (PEFCs) require high purityhydrogen for maximum material performanc

22、e and lifetime.Analysis to at least 0.05 mol mol concentration of totalhalogenated (measured as methyl fluoride) in hydrogen isnecessary for assuring a feed gas of sufficient purity to satisfyfuel cell system needs as defined in ISO TS 14687-2, SAEJ2719, and the California Code of Regulations, or as

23、 specifiedin regulatory codes.5.2 Although not intended for application to gases otherthan hydrogen, techniques within this screening method can beapplied to other gaseous samples requiring total halogenatedhydrocarbon content determination. The method must bevalidated when used to test fuels or oth

24、er gaseous samples thatmay contain interfering compounds.6. Interferences6.1 Other Electron Capturing Sensitive Compounds, mostnotably oxygen, water, and other oxygenated compounds.6.2 The electron capture detector is very sensitive, typicallycapable of measuring organic halides to 0.0001 mol mol.An

25、yinterfering contamination of carrier and detector gases witheither organic halides, oxygen, or water can render the ECDdetector either unusable or result in a positive bias. All supplyand dilution gases must be of the highest purity and in-linepurification may be required.6.3 All components in cont

26、act with the carrier, detector, andsample gases must be cleaned and free of halogen contamina-tion. Metal to metal seals shall be used whenever possible.Teflon seals shall be avoided.7. Apparatus7.1 The apparatus and analytic parameters below have beensuccessfully used to satisfy the measurement req

27、uirementsdescribed in this standard. Other parameters can be usedprovided measurement requirements and quality assuranceobjectives can be satisfied.7.1.1 Gas Chromatograph, with electron capture detectorand electronic signal integrator, computer, or other recordingdevice7.1.2 Gas Sampling System, wi

Hazards9.1 Hydrogen is a highly flammable

31、gas. Improper handlingof high pressure hydrogen or compressed gas cylinders con-taining calibrate compound, air, nitrogen, hydrogen, or heliumcan result in explosion. Hydrogen and compressed gas stan-dards should only be handled in well ventilated locations awayfrom sparks and flames. Rapid release

32、of nitrogen or heliumcan result in asphyxiation. Compressed air supports combus-tion. Read and follow all precautionary statements on theproduct labels.10. Calibration and Standardization10.1 A multipoint calibration curve is prepared, using stan-dard concentrations of 10 ppb, 50 ppb, and 100 ppb of

33、 methylD7676 182fluoride in hydrogen, on a monthly basis or whenever theinstrument is repaired or configuration is changed. Othercompounds may be used for standardization in compliancewith local requirements or regulations.10.2 The instrument calibration is checked daily with the50 ppb calibration g

34、as standard. The response should fallwithin 10 % of the value expected based upon the calibrationcurve. If the performance does not meet this criteria, systemmaintenance and multipoint recalibration are required.10.3 The calibration gas standard is flowed through the gassampling system until all air

35、 is purged out.10.4 The calibration gas standard is injected into the gaschromatograph and simultaneously the integrator or otherrecording device is started.10.5 Total area counts are recorded on the integrator orother recording device.10.6 Repeat three times. Average the standard area counts.The pe

36、rcent relative standard deviation of the calibration areacounts should be less than 10 %. If the performance does notmeet this criteria, system maintenance and multipoint recali-bration are required.10.7 Use the area counts of the three calibration concentra-tions to develop a calibration curve for

37、the analyzer.11. Procedure11.1 Sampling at the sample source shall always be donesafely in a manner that ensures that a representative sample isbeing analyzed. Lack of precision and accuracy in using thismethod can most often be attributed to improper samplingprocedures. (See Practices D3700, D1265,

38、 and D7606.)11.2 Before any samples are analyzed, a sample blank ofhydrogen is used to evaluate system cleanliness.11.2.1 Zero hydrogen is flowed through the gas samplingsystem until all air is purged out.11.2.2 Zero hydrogen blank is injected into the gas chro-matograph and simultaneously the integ

39、rator or other recordingdevice is started.11.2.3 Total blank area counts are recorded on the integratoror other recording device.11.2.4 The total blank area counts should be less than 1 % ofthe calibration standard area counts.ABlankACalx100 % , 1.0 % (1)11.3 If the performance does not meet this cr
