20、viForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member bodyinterested in a subject for which a

21、technical committee has beenestablished has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closelywith the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters

22、of electrotechnicalstandardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standardsadopted by the technical committees are circulated to

23、 the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval byat least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for i

24、dentifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 6978-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC193, Natural gas, Subcommittee SC 1, Analysis ofnatural gas.This first edition of ISO6978-2, together with ISO 6978-1, cancels and replaces ISO 6978:1992, which hasbeen technically revised. ISO 6978 consis

25、ts of the following parts, under the general title Natural gas Determination of mercury: Part 1: Sampling of mercury by chemisorption on iodine Part 2: Sampling of mercury by amalgamation on gold/platinum alloyEN ISO 6978-2:2005BS EN ISO 6978-2:2005EN ISO 6978-2:2005vIntroduction Natural gases may c

26、ontain considerable amounts ofmercury,which are generally present in the elementalform. Gases with high mercury content have to be purified to avoid the condensation of mercury during processing and transport as well as to be compliant with the demands of gas sales contracts. Low mercury concentrati

27、ons are specified when natural gas is to be liquefied. This is to avoid severe corrosion problems,for instance in aluminium heat exchangers of liquefaction plants. Since the presence of hydrocarbons, in particular aromatic hydrocarbons present in low concentrations inalmost everynatural gas, interfe

28、res in the determination of mercury byatomic absorption spectrometry (AAS)or atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS), mercury cannot be determined directlyin natural gas. Therefore, prior to the analytical determination, mercuryhas to be collected and separated from aromatic hydrocarbons. The purpose

29、 of the determination of the mercury content can be to monitor gas quality, to monitor the operation of gas treatment plants for mercury removal. Several methods for the collection or enrichment of mercury from natural gas have been developed. The collection of mercury from dry natural gas normallyp

30、oses no particular problem. However, care should be taken when sampling mercury from natural gases under nearly condensing conditions (see ISO 6570). The two parts of ISO6978 describe the principles of sampling and specify the general requirements formethods for sampling mercury and for determining

31、total mercury in pipeline quality natural gas. This part ofISO 6978 specifies a method of sampling mercury by amalgamation on gold/platinum alloy thread whereas Part 1 specifies a method of sampling mercury by chemisorption on iodine-impregnated silica gel.

32、ISO 6978-2:2005blankINTENRATIONAL TSANDADRIS-8796 O2:(3002E)1Natural gas Determination of mercury Part 2: Sampling of mercury by amalgamation on gold/platinum alloyWARNING The use of this part of ISO 6978 may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This part of ISO 6978 does not purpo

It is the responsibility of the user of this part of ISO 6978 to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability or regulatory limitations prior to use. 1 Scope This part of ISO 6978 specifies a me

34、thod for the determination of total mercury content of pipeline quality natural gas using a sampling method by amalgamation on gold/platinum (Au/Pt) alloy thread. This method isapplicable to the sampling of raw natural gas when no condensation is present. At atmospheric pressure, thismethod is suita

35、ble for the determination of mercury content within the range of 0,01 g/m3to 100 g/m3innaturalgas samples. At higher pressures (up to 8 MPa), this sampling method is suitable for the determinationof mercury contents within the range of 0,001 g/m3to 1 g/m3. The collected mercuryis determined bymeasur

36、ing the absorbance or fluorescence of mercuryvapour at 253,7 nm. NOTE ISO6978-1 gives a sampling method suitable for the determination of mercury contents in natural gas bychemisorption on iodine-impregnated silica gel for the working range of 0,1 g/m3to 5 000 g/m3for sampling atpressures up to 40 M

39、 temperature at least 10C higher than the dewpoint of the gas sampled. The gasis passed through two quartz glass sampling tubes in series containing fine gold/platinum alloy thread. The mercury is collected on the gold/platinum alloy thread by amalgamation. Subsequently, each sampling tube isseparat

40、elyheated to 700 C to desorb the mercury from the amalgam. The released mercury is transferred byEN ISO 6978-2:2005BS EN ISO 6978-2:2005EN ISO 6978-2:20052a stream of air onto an analytical tube filled with gold/platinum alloy thread (double amalgamation). Thissecond quartz glass tube is then heated

41、 to 800 C and the mercury is transferred to an AAS or AFS formeasurement at 253,7 mm.This sampling method is suitable for the determination of mercury content in natural gas in the range of 0,01 g/m3to 100 g/m3for sampling at atmospheric pressure and 0,001 g/m3to 1 g/m3for sampling at high pressure.

42、 To avoid diffusion of mercury from the surface into the gold/platinum alloythread, which would reduce the recovery of mercuryunder the specified transfer conditions, it is necessary to determine theamount of collected mercury within one week after sampling. Other sorption materials such as gold-imp

43、regnated silica with a high specific surface may be used instead offine gold/platinum alloy thread, provided they show equivalent method performance in the natural gas matrix. Unless otherwise specified, gas volumes are expressed in cubic metres (m3) at 273,15 K and 1 013,25 hPa. NOTE The comparabil

44、ity of the two sampling techniques has been demonstrated by interlaboratory tests at two different concentration levels. 5 Apparatus The parameters influencing the measurement shall be traceable to national or International Standards. The uncertainty of the volume measurement (volume, temperature an

45、d pressure of the gas aswell as ambient airpressure) directly contributes to the uncertainty of the determined mercury content of the gas. Therefore suitable measuring equipment, calibrated against a commonly accepted reference, shall be used to minimize the uncertainty of the volumemeasurement to l
