The number of FTIR scans (or measure-ment time) can be increased to improve detection limits.Record all settings and actual gas cell absolute pressure andtemperature for each calibration spect

32、rum.9.1.3 Determine the Number of Gas Cell Volumes Requiredto Flush the FTIR Gas CellThe Environmental ProtectionAgency (EPA) recommends 5 cell volumes are adequate tofully flush the gas cell of the sample (See EnvironmentalProtection Agency 40 CFR: Protection of the Environment,Appendix B to part 6

33、0). For a flow rate of 1 litre per minute(LPM) and a gas cell volume of 200 ml the number of cellvolumes would be 1.0 LPM/0.2 L = 5 volumes flushed per 1min. For a larger cell volume of 500 ml for the same flow rateyou would only achieve 1.0LPM/0.5 L = 2 volumes flushed per1 min. Therefore the amoun

34、t of time required to completelyflush the gas sample from the gas cell is dependant upon thegas cell internal volume and the gas sample flow rate. Forfaster data acquisition a smaller gas sample volume is desiredor a faster flow rate can be used but that must be balanced bythe amount of sample that

35、is resident in the gas samplechamber/cylinder that was collected.9.1.4 Prior to collecting the calibration spectra verify theFTIR performance is within acceptable limits following theinstructions inAnnexA1 as well as those specified by the FTIRmanufacturer.9.2 Collect Calibration Spectra for Species

36、 in CalibrationGas Cylinders:9.2.1 Purge the gas blending apparatus and FTIR gas cellwith purified H2. Monitor for one or more surrogate contami-nant species (generally H2O is selected) using the FTIR toverify that the reported concentrations have reached a mini-mum and stable value. As needed a new

37、 background spectrumis acquired.9.2.2 Program the gas blending apparatus to prepare therequired concentration mixtures while maintaining a relativelyconstant flow rate to prevent an increase in pressure in theFIG. 3 Apparatus for Measuring Samples from High Pressure Storage Containers.

For each blend, allow the mixture to flowthrough the FTIR gas cell purging at the required number ofcell volumes as determined in 9.1.3.9.2.3 Collect at least three calibration spectra for eachconcentration blend level. The three spectra can late

39、r be used toverify that the calibration gas concentration was within 6 2%of the calibration gas value. Record the FTIR settings, gas celltemperature, gas cell absolute pressure and gas cell path length.Repeat this process for each desired concentration for eachspecies in the calibration gas cylinder

40、.9.2.4 As desired, a single set of calibration gas blends canbe prepared that spans the desired range for all species in thecalibration gas bottle providing that there is no spectral overlapbetween the target contaminants in the blend. In general it isnot possible or reasonable to combine all of the

41、 componentsinto a single standard but a sub set of contaminants that do nothave spectral overlaps can be combined. For example, hydro-carbons, can be blended with NO, N2O, CO or CO2(forexample, methane and CO or methane and CO2) and have nooverlap within the usable infrared region. Care should be ta

42、kento ensure that contaminants in the blends do not react with eachother.9.3 Collect Calibration Spectra for Species from Perme-ation Tubes:9.3.1 Purge the gas blending apparatus and FTIR gas cellwith purified H2. Monitor for one or more surrogate contami-nant species (for example, H2O which tends t

43、o be more sticky)using the FTIR to verify that the reported concentrations havereached a minimum and stable value such as applying an f-testto determine the values are no longer significant. As needed anew background spectrum is acquired.9.3.2 Set the temperature of the permeation tube oven asdirect

44、ed by the permeation tube manufacturer and set the massflow controllers as required to prepare the desired concentra-tion. The use of permeation tubes at ambient temperature is notacceptable as this will result in excessive variability in perme-ation rates due to a lack of fine temperature control.

45、Asnecessary, the output flow from the permeation oven can besplit using the output mass flow controller and a backpressureregulator in order to prepare lower concentration standards. Foreach blend, allow the mixture to flow through the FTIR gas cellpurging at the required number of cell volumes as d

46、efined in9.1.3.9.3.3 Collect at least three calibration spectra for eachcontaminant (impurity) concentration. The three spectra can beused to verify that the calibration gas concentration was notchanging within 6 2 %. Record the FTIR settings, gas celltemperature, gas cell absolute pressure and gas

47、cell path length.Also record the permeation tube serial number, concentrationcalculation, oven temperature, and flow conditions. Repeat thisprocess for each desired concentration for each contaminantspecies that requires a permeation tube to be used.9.3.4 Follow Annex A3 for more details on the crea

48、tion ofthe FTIR Reference Spectra.9.4 Prepare Analytical Methods for Each Impurity Species:9.4.1 For gas impurity analysis the main analytical methodused is based upon Classical Least Squares (CLS) algorithms.This method requires that each component that might bepresent in the final gas sample be in

49、cluded in the full analysismethod. A calibration method is created for each componentusing the 10 or more concentrations that were created with thegas blending system described above. The analysis region ischosen to minimize interferences from other componentsknown to be present in the gas sample. Linear, quadratic, cubic,quartic or spline data interpolation functions may be used to fitthe concentration range and reduce the prediction error of themethod.
