Abstract: |
In this paper,an on site rapid quantitative analysis device of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) in sealed cabin was developed.The device was based on the metrological sampling-enrichment technique with thin shell metal cylinder type capillary column heater,and micro thermal conductivity detector/micro flame ionization detector.To adapt pressure change in sealed cabin,a fix-volume vacuum tank with a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor was used to calculate the effective sampling volume and the enrichment factor.The enrichment factor was 400 for toluene at an effective sampling volume of 100 mL(converted to standard atmospheric pressure).The column assembly was constructed by wrapping the heating wire and column on the inside and outside layers of a thin shell metal cylinder,respectively.The temperature uniformity of capillary column was less than 0.4 ℃,and a temperature programming rate of 40 ℃/min was obtained.In the heating process from 40 ℃ to 300 ℃ at 10 ℃/min,the power consumption was less than 35 W,while at an isothermal temperature of 300 ℃,the power consumption was only 28 W.The separation performances,including peak width at half height,column efficiency,resolution and repeatability of the column assembly were evaluated and compared with a laboratory chromatograph,proving that the separation performances of the two heating methods were similar.The sampling-enrichment performance was evaluated with varieties of VOCs samples.In the high speed separation mode,53 VOCs could be separated within 5 minutes using a peak width at half height less than 0.8 s for all analytes.The developed device was applied to the rapid determination of hydrocarbons,benzene homogeneous,alcohols,aldehydes,ketones and other VOCs.The performance parameters of the device were satisfactory,compared with those of commercial portable gas chromatography(GC) or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS). |
