1、Designation: D2420 12D2420 12aStandard Test Method forHydrogen Sulfide in Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gases (LeadAcetate Method)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2420; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision

2、, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method2 covers the detection of hydrogen sulfide in liquefied petroleum (LP) gases. The sensi

3、tivity of the test isabout 4 mg/m3 (0.15 to 0.2 grain of hydrogen sulfide per 100 ft3) of gas.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, a

Summary of Test Method3.1 The vaporizedVaporized LPgas is passed over moist lead acetate paper under control

6、led conditions. Hydrogen sulfide reactswith lead acetate to form lead sulfide which produces a coloration on the paper varying from yellow to black, depending upon theamount of hydrogen sulfide present.4. Significance and Use4.1 Liquefied petroleum gases and their products of combustion must not be

7、unduly corrosive to the materials with which theycome in contact. The potential personnel exposure hazards of H2S also make the detection and measurement of hydrogen sulfideimportant, even in low concentrations. In addition, in some cases the odor of the gases mustshall not be objectionable. (SeeSpe

Interferences5.1 Methyl mercaptan, if present, produces a transitory yellow stain on the lead acetate paper that will fade completely in lessthan 5 min.5.2 Other sulfur compounds present in liquefied petroleum gas do not interfere with the test.1 This test method is

Alternatively, the t

15、est paper may be preparedby dipping strips of smooth filter paper in 5 % aqueous lead acetate solution and removing the excess solution with a clean blotter.The strips of paper shall be approximately 50 mm long and 10 mm wide and contain a 3 mm hole near one end so they will hangfreely vertical in t

A wet test meter rotameter and mass flow controller have been found to be suitable.6.4 WaterDistilled.Unless otherwise indicated,

This method of direct field measurement eliminates any inaccuracy introduced by the sampling procedure or samplecontainer.7.2 (WarningBecause of Experience has demonstrated that the chemical activity and physical adsorptiveabsorptiveproperties of hydrogen sulfide, it is highly desirable to

Procedure8.1 Connect the test apparatus to the sample source by use of a minimum length of clean, non-reactive and non-absorptivestainless steel tubing orhighpressure tubing (see 6.5other material that safely

27、 contains the pressure, resists being cut or torn, andhas been tested to be inert relative to the stream being tested.).8.2 Flush the line and apparatus for about 1 min.8.3 Fill the water reservoir with warm water (50 to 70C).8.4 By use of the needle valve, adjust the rate of gas flow to 2.3 6 0.2 L

28、/min.8.5 Immediately, place a single strip of distilled water-moistened lead acetate paper on the hook in the test cylinder so that thepaper is held midway between the watchglass and the bottom of the upper stopper.8.6 Expose the moist paper for exactly 2 min to the gas flow of 2.360.2 L/min. Remove

Interpretation of Results9.1 Compare the exposed test paper with a moist test paper that has not been exposed.9.1.1 In the absence of distinct coloration, interpret the result as “negative” (“pass”).9.1.2 If there is a distinct coloration, wa

30、it 5 min before interpreting the test results.9.1.2.1 If, after 5 min, the paper has no distinct coloration, interpret the result as “negative” (“pass”).NOTE 1The presence of methyl mercaptan in liquefied petroleum gas gives a distinct yellow stain to the test paper which, however, fades completelyi

31、n less than 5 min.9.1.2.2 If, after 5 min, the paper does have a distinct coloration, interpret the result as “positive” (“fail”).NOTE 2 Concentrations of H2S in LPG of 4 mg/m3 and higher will give a positive result.10. Report9.1 Compare the exposed test paper with a moist test paper that has not be

If, after 5 min, the paper has no distinctcoloration, rate the sample as “negative” (“pass”). If the paper

33、does have a distinct coloration after 5 min, rate the sample as“positive” (“fail”).NOTE 2The presence of methyl mercaptan in liquefied petroleum gas gives a distinct yellow stain to the test paper which, however, fades completelyin less than 5 min.NOTE 3 Concentrations of H2S in LPG of 4 mg/m3 and h

Precision and Bias11.1 In the case of passfail data or results from other qualitative tests no generally accepted method for determining precisionor

35、bias is currently available.11.2 BiasThe procedure in Test Method D2420 for measuring hydrogen sulfide has no bias because the value of hydrogensulfide is defined only in terms of this test method.12.
