3、15.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of traceoxygenates in automotive spark-ignition engine fuel. Themethod used is a multidimensional gas chromatographicmethod using 1,2-dimethoxy ethane as the internal standard.The oxygenates that are analyzed are: methyl-tertiary butylether (M

4、TBE), ethyl-tertiary butyl ether (ETBE), diisopropylether (DIPE), methanol, tertiary-amyl methyl ether (TAME),n-propanol, i-propanol, n-butanol, i-butanol, tert-butyl alcohol,sec-butyl alcohol, and tert-pentanol. Ethanol is usually notmeasured as a trace oxygenate since ethanol can be used as themai

5、n oxygenate compound in finished automotive spark-ignition fuels such as reformulated automotive spark-ignitionfuels. The concentration range of the oxygenates covered in theILS study was from 10 g/Kg to 2000 g/Kg. In addition thismethod is also suitable for the measurement of the C5 isomericalcohol

6、s (2-methyl-1-butanol, 2-methyl-2-butanol) presentfrom the fermentation of ethanol.1.2 The ethanol blending concentration for which this testmethod applies ranges from 1 to 15% by volume. Higherconcentrations of ethanol coelute with methanol in the analyti-cal column. Lower levels of ethanol, simila

7、r to the otheroxygenate, can be calibrated and analyzed also. If higherethanol concentrations are expected, the window cutting tech-nique can be used to avoid ethanol from entering the analyticalcolumn and interfere with the determination of the otheroxygenates of interest. Refer to Appendix X1 for

8、details.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3.1 Alternate units, in common usage, are also provided toincrease clarity and aid the users of this test method.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of

9、thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method4.1 An appropriate internal standard of a product that is notpresent in refinery streams, such as 1,2-dimethoxy ethane(1,2-DME), is added to the sample, which is then introducedinto a gas chromatograph equipped wi

21、th two columns and a4-port switching valve. The sample first passes onto an apolar(non-polar) polydimethylsiloxane WCOT column that per-forms a pre-separation of the trace oxygenates and elutesunwanted high boiling hydrocarbons to vent. The oxygenatesand the DME are transferred to the analytical oxy

22、gen selectivecolumn by the switching valve. While the oxygenates and theDME are eluting from the analytical column, the inlets carriergas is used to elute the hydrocarbons from the pre-column toyield a stable baseline for the next analysis. The auxiliarypressure controller is used to provide carrier

23、 gas to theanalytical column during the analysis.4.2 The eluted components Table 1 are detected by one ortwo flame ionization detectors. In the single detector Configu-ration A (Fig. 1), only the components eluting from theanalytical column are analyzed. In the two detector Configu-ration B (Fig. 2)

24、, detector one is used to monitor the apolarelution and aid in setting “heart-cut” times for specific oxy-genates while the second detector is used to monitor theanalytical column elution and also for the quantitation of theoxygenates. The second detector response is proportional to theoxygenates an

25、d DME components concentration. The signal isrecorded, the peak areas are measured, and the concentration ofeach oxygenate is calculated with reference to the internalstandard.4.3 Alternatively, a fluidic switching system, ConfigurationC(Figs. 3 and 4) may be used instead of valve switching. Inthis

26、system, the two columns are joined by a zero dead volume(ZDV) tee purged by an auxiliary carrier source. At injection,the auxiliary flow is low, and the inlet flow is sufficient so thatat the midpoint where the two columns join, the flow is therequired flow to transfer the oxygenates to the PLOT col

27、umn.Thus, there is forward flow through the pre-column and theanalytical column. Once the oxygenates have passed through tothe analytical column, the inlet flow is decreased and theauxiliary flow is increased, which results in backflushing thepre-column through the split vent of the front inlet whil

28、e theanalytical column continues the separation.5. Significance and Use5.1 The analysis of trace oxygenates in automotive spark-ignition engine fuel has become routine in certain areas toensure compliance whenever oxygenated fuels are used. Inaddition, test methods to measure trace levels of oxygena
