Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Place 300 to 400 mL of NaOH solution in the firstscrubber (Fig. 4) and the same amount of H2O2-H2SO4solution(300 mL of water, 30 mL of H2SO4, and 30 mL of H2O2(30 %w/w) in the second scrubber.

41、mL of water, and thepressure in the vacuum manifold is maintained at approxi-mately 40 cm of water below atmospheric. When all adjust-ments have been made, remove the water from the absorbers.8.3 With the burner control valve closed, the valve to thevacuum regulator fully open, and the pressure in t

42、he vacuummanifold adjusted to approximately 40 cm of water belowatmospheric, turn on the purified air. Adjust the chimneymanifold control valve so that, at the required flow through theabsorber, only a small stream of air escapes at the pressure-relief valve, a small stream of air enters at the vacu

43、umregulator, and the pressure in the chimney manifold is 1 to 2 cmof water. Minor adjustment of the vacuum regulator andvacuum control valve may be necessary to achieve thiscondition.NOTE 1It is convenient to balance the air-flow system by regulatingthe pressure in the vacuum manifold. This is done

44、by raising or loweringthe air-inlet tube in the vacuum regulator by sliding it in a rubber sleeve.8.4 When first assembling the apparatus, connect the gassample line using glass or aluminum tubing to the inlet of theflowmeter. Connect the outlet of the flowmeter in a similar wayto the lower side arm

45、 of the burner. Adjust the valve forcontrolling the rate of flow of gas so that gas is burned at a rateto liberate approximately 250 to 500 Btu/h (Note 2). This rateshould be indicated by two index marks on the columns of theflowmeter U-tube or timing a rate-index device. Make theprimary air connect

46、ion from the purified air line to the upperside arm of the burner by means of rubber or plastic tubing.NOTE 2Using this gas rate, the chimney and absorber should notbecome overheated during a test. The appropriate volumetric rate of gasflow will therefore depend on the heating value of the gas being

47、 tested.8.5 Wash the spray trap, absorber, and chimney well withwater before each test. Charge the larger bulb of the absorberwith 10 mL of Na2CO3solution (Note 3) and 20 mL of water.Attach the spray trap and chimney, and connect them,respectively, to the vacuum line and to the purified air lineusin

48、g rubber or plastic tubing. Close the chimney openingusing a cork or other suitable plug.NOTE 3This quantity of Na2CO3solution is adequate to absorb theSO2from the combustion products of 1 ft3of gas containing 15 grains ofsulfur per 100 ft3(0.03 m3of gas containing 350 mg/m3of sulfur.) Forhigher con

49、centrations of sulfur in the gas, the volume of Na2CO3solutionshould be proportionately increased, but the total initial liquid volume inthe absorber should not exceed 30 mL.9. Procedure9.1 Prior to each test, purge the flowmeter, burner, andconnection with the gas sample, and light the flame on theburner. Adjust the gas-flow rate by its valve to conform withthe requirements prescribed in 8.4. Adjust the primary air flowso that a soft blue flame is obtained, with no yellow tip.9.2 To start a determination, insert the burner into thechimney, fastenin
