1、Designation: D7754 16Standard Test Method forDetermination of Trace Oxygenates in Automotive Spark-Ignition Engine Fuel by Multidimensional GasChromatography1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7754; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adop

Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of traceoxygenates in automot

3、ive 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 (MTBE), ethyl-tertiary butyl ether (ETBE), diisopropylether (DIPE), methanol, tertiary-a

4、myl 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 themain oxygenate compound in finished automotive spark-ignition fuels such as reformulated

5、automotive spark-ignitionfuels. The concentration range of the oxygenates covered in theILS study was from 10 mgkg to 2000 mgkg. In addition thismethod is also suitable for the measurement of the C5 isomericalcohols (2-methyl-1-butanol, 2-methyl-2-butanol) presentfrom the fermentation of ethanol.1.2

6、 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, similar to the otheroxygenate, can be calibrated and analyzed also. If higherethanol conce

7、ntrations 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 details.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other un

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 w

21、ith 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 ox

22、ygen 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 carrie

23、r 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.
