22、ards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International orga

23、nizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given

24、in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75

25、% 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.

26、ural gas, Subcommittee SC 1, Analysis of natural gas.This first edition of ISO 6978-2, together with ISO 6978-1, cancels and replaces ISO 6978:1992, which has been technically revised. ISO 6978 consists of the following parts, under the general title Natural gas Determination of mercury: Part 1: Sam

27、pling of mercury by chemisorption on iodine Part 2: Sampling of mercury by amalgamation on gold/platinum alloy EN ISO 6978-2:2005vIntroduction Natural gases may contain considerable amounts of mercury, which are generally present in the elemental form. Gases with high mercury content have to be puri

28、fied 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 concentrations are specified when natural gas is to be liquefied. This is to avoid severe corrosion problems, for instance in aluminium heat excha

29、ngers of liquefaction plants. Since the presence of hydrocarbons, in particular aromatic hydrocarbons present in low concentrations in almost every natural gas, interferes in the determination of mercury by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) or atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS), mercury canno

30、t be determined directly in natural gas. Therefore, prior to the analytical determination, mercury has to be collected and separated from aromatic hydrocarbons. The purpose of the determination of the mercury content can be to monitor gas quality, to monitor the operation of gas treatment plants for

31、 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 normally poses no particular problem. However, care should be taken when sampling mercury from natural gases under nearly condensing cond

32、itions (see ISO 6570). The two parts of ISO 6978 describe the principles of sampling and specify the general requirements for methods for sampling mercury and for determining total mercury in pipeline quality natural gas. This part of ISO 6978 specifies a method of sampling mercury by amalgamation o

33、n gold/platinum alloy thread whereas Part 1 specifies a method of sampling mercury by chemisorption on iodine-impregnated silica gel.

This part of ISO 6978 does not purport to address all of the safety problems, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this part of ISO 6978 to establish appropriate safety

35、and health practices and to determine the applicability or regulatory limitations prior to use. 1 Scope This part of ISO 6978 specifies a method for the determination of total mercury content of pipeline quality natural gas using a sampling method by amalgamation on gold/platinum (Au/Pt) alloy threa

36、d. This method is applicable to the sampling of raw natural gas when no condensation is present. At atmospheric pressure, this method is suitable for the determination of mercury content within the range of 0,01 g/m3to 100 g/m3in natural gas samples. At higher pressures (up to 8 MPa), this sampling

37、method is suitable for the determination of mercury contents within the range of 0,001 g/m3to 1 g/m3. The collected mercury is determined by measuring the absorbance or fluorescence of mercury vapour at 253,7 nm. NOTE ISO 6978-1 gives a sampling method suitable for the determination of mercury conte

38、nts in natural gas by chemisorption on iodine-impregnated silica gel for the working range of 0,1 g/m3to 5 000 g/m3for sampling at pressures up to 40 MPa. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the

40、P, OIML 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 14532 apply. 4 Principle Sampling is performed at a temperature at least 10 C higher than the dewpoint of the gas sampled. The gas is passed through two quartz glass sampling tubes in series con

41、taining fine gold/platinum alloy thread. The mercury is collected on the gold/platinum alloy thread by amalgamation. Subsequently, each sampling tube is separately heated to 700 C to desorb the mercury from the amalgam. The released mercury is transferred by EN ISO 6978-2:20052a stream of air onto a

42、n analytical tube filled with gold/platinum alloy thread (double amalgamation). This second quartz glass tube is then heated to 800 C and the mercury is transferred to an AAS or AFS for measurement at 253,7 mm. This sampling method is suitable for the determination of mercury content in natural gas

43、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. To avoid diffusion of mercury from the surface into the gold/platinum alloy thread, which would reduce the recovery of mercury under the specified transfer conditions, it is

44、 necessary to determine the amount of collected mercury within one week after sampling. Other sorption materials such as gold-impregnated silica with a high specific surface may be used instead of fine gold/platinum alloy thread, provided they show equivalent method performance in the natural gas ma

45、trix. Unless otherwise specified, gas volumes are expressed in cubic metres (m3) at 273,15 K and 1 013,25 hPa. NOTE The comparability of the two sampling techniques has been demonstrated by interlaboratory tests at two different concentration levels. 5 Apparatus The parameters influencing the measur

46、ement shall be traceable to national or International Standards. The uncertainty of the volume measurement (volume, temperature and pressure of the gas as well as ambient air pressure) directly contributes to the uncertainty of the determined mercury content of the gas. Therefore suitable measuring

47、equipment, calibrated against a commonly accepted reference, shall be used to minimize the uncertainty of the volume measurement to less than 1 %. 5.1 Sampling apparatus (see Figure 1). 5.1.1 Apparatus for sampling at atmospheric pressure, typically comprising the following: 5.1.1.1 Heated bypass va
