3、s test method covers the determination of several elements (including iron, nickel, sulfur, and vanadium) occurring incrude oils.1.2 For analysis of any element using wavelengths below 190 nm, 190 nm, a vacuum or inert gas optical path is required.1.3 Analysis for elements such as arsenic, selenium,

4、 or sulfur in whole crude oil may be difficult by this test method due to thepresence of their volatile compounds of these elements in crude oil; but this test method should work for resid samples.1.4 Because of the particulates present in crude oil samples, if they do not dissolve in the organic so

5、lvents used or if they donot get aspirated in the nebulizer, low elemental values may result, particularly for iron and sodium. This can also occur if theelements are associated with water which can drop out of the solution when diluted with solvent.1.4.1 An alternative in such cases is using Test M

6、ethod D5708, Procedure B, which involves wet decomposition of the oilsample and measurement by ICP-AES for nickel, vanadium, and iron, or Test Method D5863, Procedure A, which also uses wetacid decomposition and determines vanadium, nickel, iron, and sodium using atomic absorption spectrometry.1.4.2

7、 From ASTM Interlaboratory Crosscheck Programs (ILCP) on crude oils data available so far, it is not clear that organicsolvent dilution techniques would necessarily give lower results than those obtained using acid decomposition techniques.21.4.3 It is also possible that, particularly in the case of

8、 silicon, low results may be obtained irrespective of whether organicdilution or acid decomposition is utilized. Silicones are present as oil field additives and can be lost in ashing. Silicates should beretained but unless hydrofluoric acid or alkali fusion is used for sample dissolution, they may

9、not be accounted for.1.5 This test method uses oil-soluble metals for calibration and does not purport to quantitatively determine insolubleparticulates. Analytical results are particle size dependent and low results may be obtained for particles larger than a fewmicrometers.1.6 The precision in Sec

10、tion 18 defines the concentration ranges covered in the interlaboratory study. However, lower andparticularly higher concentrations can be determined by this test method. The low concentration limits are dependent on thesensitivity of the ICP instrument and the dilution factor used. The high concent

11、ration limits are determined by the product of themaximum concentration defined by the calibration curve and the sample dilution factor.1.7 Elements present at concentrations above the upper limit of the calibration curves can be determined with additionalappropriate dilutions and with no degradatio

12、n of precision.1.8 As a generality based on this interlaboratory study (see 18.1), the trace elements identifiable in crude oils can be dividedinto three categories:1.8.1 Element levels that are too low for valid detection by ICP-AES and hence, cannot be determined: aluminum, barium, lead,magnesium,

13、 manganese, and silicon.1.8.2 Elements that are just at the detection levels of the ICP-AES method and hence, cannot be determined with a great dealof confidence: boron, calcium, chromium, copper, molybdenum, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, and zinc. Perhaps thedetermination of these elements can be

14、considered as semi-quantitative.1 This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D02 on Petroleum Products, Liquid Fuels, and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeD02.03 on Elemental Analysis.Current edition approved Jan. 1, 2011June 1, 2016.

Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method usually requires several minutes per sample. A weighed portion of a thoroughly homogenized crude oilis diluted tenfold by weight

34、with mixed xylenes, kerosene, or other suitable solvent. Standards are prepared in the same manner.A mandatory internal standard is added to the solutions to compensate for variations in test specimen introduction efficiency. Thesolutions are introduced to the ICP instrument by a peristaltic pump. B

35、y comparing emission intensities of elements in the testspecimen with emission intensities measured with the standards, the concentrations of elements in the test specimen are calculable.5. Significance and Use5.1 Most often determined trace elements in crude oils are nickel and vanadium, which are

36、usually the most abundant; however,as many as 45 elements in crude oils have been reported. Knowledge of trace elements in crude oil is important because they canhave an adverse effect on petroleum refining and product quality. These effects can include catalyst poisoning in the refinery andexcessiv

37、e atmospheric emission in combustion of fuels.Trace element concentrations are also useful in correlating production fromdifferent wells and horizons in a field. Elements such as iron, arsenic, and lead are catalyst poisons. Vanadium compounds cancause refractory damage in furnaces, and sodium compo

38、unds have been found to cause superficial fusion on fire brick. Someorganometallic compounds are volatile which can lead to the contamination of distillate fractions, and a reduction in their stabilityor malfunctions of equipment when they are combusted.5.2 The value of crude oil can be determined,

39、in part, by the concentrations of nickel, vanadium, and iron.5.3 Inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) is a widely used technique in the oil industry. Itsadvantages over traditional atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) include greater sensitivity, freedom from molecularin

40、terferences, wide dynamic range, and multi-element capability. See Practice D7260.6. Interferences6.1 SpectralThere are no known spectral interferences between elements covered by this test method when using the spectrallines listed in Table 1.

45、operating guide todevelop and apply correction factors to compensate for the interferences. To apply interference corrections, all concentrations shallbe within the previously established linear response range of each element listed in Table 1. (WarningCorrect profiling isimportant to reveal spectra

46、l interferences from high concentrations of some elements on the spectral lines used for determiningtrace metals.)6.2.1 Spectral interferences can usually be avoided by judicious choice of analytical wavelengths. When spectral interferencescannot be avoided, the necessary corrections should be made

47、using the computer software supplied by the instrument manufactureror the empirical method described below. Details of the empirical method are given in Test Method C1109 and by Boumans.4 Thisempirical correction method cannot be used with scanning spectrometer systems when both the analytical and i

48、nterfering linescannot be located precisely and reproducibly. With any instrument, the analyst shall always be alert to the possible presence ofunexpected elements producing interfering spectral lines.6.2.2 The empirical method of spectral interference correction uses interference correction factors

49、. These factors are determinedby analyzing the single-element, high purity solutions under conditions matching as closely as possible those used for test specimenanalysis. Unless plasma conditions can be accurately reproduced from day to day, or for longer periods, interference correctionfactors found to affect the results significantly shall be redetermined each time specimens are analyzed.6.2.3 Interference correction factors can be negative if off-peak background correction is employed for element, i.
