Total sulfur determination in gasoline,kerosene and diesel fuel using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry after direct sample introduction as detergent emulsions

Herein, we present the development of a procedure for the determination of total sulfur in petroleum-derived products (gasoline, kerosene and diesel fuel) employing inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). For this procedure, samples were prepared as emulsions that were made using concentrated nitric acid, Triton X-100, sample, and ultra pure water in proportions of 5/10/7/78% (v/v), respectively. Sample volumes were weighed because of the density differences, and oxygen was added to the sheat gas entrance of the ICP OES in order to decrease carbon deposition in the torch and to minimize background effects. A Doehlert design was applied as an experimental matrix to investigate the flow ratios of argon (sheat and plasma gas) and oxygen in relation to the signal-to-background ratio. A comparative study among the slopes of the analytical curves built in aqueous media, surfactant/HNO₃, and by spike addition for several sample emulsions indicates that a unique solution of surfactant in acidic media can be employed to perform the external calibration for analysis of the emulsions. The developed procedure allows for the determination of the total sulfur content in petroleum derivatives with a limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.72 and 2.4 μg g^− 1, respectively. Precision values, expressed as the relative standard deviations (% RSD, n = 10) for 12 and 400 μg g^− 1, were 2.2% and 1.3%, respectively. The proposed procedure was applied toward the determination of total sulfur in samples of gasoline, kerosene, and diesel fuel commercialized in the city of Niterói/RJ, Brazil. The accuracy of the proposed method was evaluated by the determination of the total sulfur in three different standard reference materials (SRM): NIST 2723a (sulfur in diesel fuel oil), NIST 1616b (sulfur in kerosene), and NIST 2298 (sulfur in gasoline). The data indicate that the methodology can be successfully applied to these types of samples. Spiking tests, conducted with the analyzed samples, indicate that recoveries are between 97 and 103%.

Quantitative determination of sulfur compounds in FCC gasolines by AED. A study of the effect of catalyst type and catalytic conditions on sulfur distribution

The identification and quantification of sulfur-containing compounds in gasoline has become an area of interest because of impending legislation regulating total sulfur levels in these fuels. To study the effects of catalyst type and catalytic conditions on gasoline sulfur distribution, a method has been developed employing both the compound-independent and element-specific response of the atomic emission detector (AED). Calibration and quantification can be accomplished even where standards are not available, owing to the nature of the AED response. Compounds were separated on a thick film polydimethylsiloxane column. An external calibration curve was applied to the area responses of individual sulfur components in the sulfur chromatogram, and the concentrations of each were calculated. Summation of these sulfur concentrations over the gasoline range yields the total sulfur content of the gasoline. The method is applicable to the determination of these compounds in raw crude oils, finished gasolines, fluid cracking catalyst (FCC) unit gasolines, and fluid catalytic cracking “model” compound studies. A prefractionating column was employed to remove heavy (>C₁₃) materials; prefractionation is not, however, necessary for distilled or commercial gasoline samples. Detection limits, linearity, detector stability, and accuracy are discussed.

汽油中有机硫化物的酸富集和结构分析

石油中发现的硫化物已超过250种，其中约有1／4存在于汽油中。由于汽油中每种硫化物的含量都很低，又有十分复杂的烃组分和含氮组分的干扰，单纯使用仪器方法对汽油中的有机硫化物进行结构分析是十分困难的。通常的做法是对汽油样品进行预处理，使硫化物从混合烃体系中分离出来，再通过仪器和相应标样进行类型分析或结构鉴定。目前研究者在此方面做了很多工作，花瑞香等用29种硫化物标样，采取GC／SCD辅以选择性化学反应对汽油馏分的硫化物形态分布研究。

Rapid determination of total sulfur in fuels using gas chromatography with atomic emission detection

The purpose of this study is to determine whether gas chromatography (GC)-atomic emission detection (AED) can be used in a low-resolution mode for rapid, accurate determinations of total sulfur in fuels at trace levels to complement other popular methods of total sulfur analysis. A method for the rapid determination of total sulfur in fuels (called "fast GC-AED") is developed. The method is tested on gasoline, jet fuel, kerosene, and diesel fuel with sulfur concentrations ranging from 125 mg/L down to 2.5 mg/L. Fast GC-AED shows better performance than traditional GC-AED for total sulfur determinations, especially for complex mixtures containing many different sulfur-containing compounds at trace levels. This method also shows that GC-AED can be used for both rapid determinations of total sulfur and traditional determinations of speciated sulfur without requiring equipment changes. Fast GC-AED is competitive with other popular methods for sulfur analysis. The 5-min program that is developed for fast GC-AED is comparable with the time scale of other methods, such as wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence and UV-fluorescence (2 to 5 min). Fast GC-AED also compares favorably with UV-fluorescence for trace sulfur determinations, demonstrating accuracy down to 2.5-mg/L sulfur.

Pervaporation performance of crosslinked polyethylene glycol membranes for deep desulfurization of FCC gasoline

An crosslinked polyethylene glycol (PEG) membrane was prepared for fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) gasoline desulfurization. Sulfur enrichment factor come to 4.75 and 3.51 for typical FCC gasoline feed with sulfur content of 238.28 and 1227.24 μg/g, respectively. Pervaporation performance of membranes kept stable within the long time run of 500 h, which indicated that crosslinked PEG membranes had the property of resisting pollution. Judging from chromatographic analysis, the membranes were more efficient for thiophene species. Effects of operation conditions including permeate pressure, feed temperature, feed flow rate and feed sulfur content level on the pervaporation performance were investigated. Permeation flux decreased with increasing permeate pressure while increased with the operating temperature increase. Sulfur enrichment factor increased firstly and decreased then when permeate pressure and temperature rose. The peak value occurred at 10.5 mm Hg and 358 K for model compounds feed (378 K for FCC gasoline feed). Arrhenius relationship existed between flux and operating temperature. Both sulfur enrichment factor and flux were shown to increase with increasing feed flow rate. Permeation flux increased while sulfur enrichment factor decreased as the feed sulfur content increased, but the influence of increasing sulfur content on pervaporation performance weakened when sulfur content come to 600 μg/g.

以ZnO-TiO₂为载体,采用等体积浸渍法制备了不同Ni含量的NiO/ZnO-TiO₂汽油脱硫吸附剂。采用X射线衍射（XRD）、压汞、H₂程序升温还原（H₂-TPR）和H₂程序升温脱附（H₂-TPD）等手段对吸附剂进行了表征。同时,采用FCC轻汽油为原料,在固定床反应装置中对不同Ni含量的NiO/ZnO-TiO₂吸附剂进行脱硫性能评价,以考察Ni含量对该吸附剂脱硫性能的影响。结果表明,Ni含量适量增加对于吸附剂比表面积、内部孔道分布和颗粒强度影响较小,同时能够增加具有脱硫活性的Ni⁰物种,促进吸附剂脱硫活性。当吸附剂中Ni质量分数达到5.48%后,吸附剂的内部孔道分布改变,吸附剂的比表面积和颗粒强度明显降低,对吸附剂脱硫活性极为不利。当Ni质量分数为4.45%时,吸附剂具有最佳脱硫性能,能够将FCC轻汽油中3×10^-4的总硫含量降低至5×10^-6以下,并维持脱硫时间达152 h,穿透硫容达11.24%（112.4 mg S/g吸附剂）,且脱硫后FCC轻汽油烯烃含量变化较小。     

Sulfur speciation in hard coal by means of a thermal decomposition method

A new method for the determination of organic and pyritic sulfur in hard coal is presented. The method is based on controlled thermal decomposition of coal sample in oxygen-free and oxygen atmospheres. The results for sulfur liberated in an argon atmosphere at temperatures up to 773 K were close to organic sulfur contents (Sorg), although owing to the definition of 'organic sulfur' the values were not directly comparable. Sorg contents are calculated from the difference between total sulfur content in coal and contents of this element in the form of sulfides, sulfates and pyrites. Sulfur contents, found in the second stage of analysis, were close to pyritic sulfur contents. The difference between total sulfur content and the sum of sulfur values obtained in stages I and II corresponded to sulfur contents in those samples which were neither decomposed nor oxidized at temperatures up to 1173 K. Although not comparable with such conventional concepts for industrial purposes these data are attractive due to the ease and rapidity of the new method for the control of sulfur streams in industrial processes.

Fast detection of methyl tert-butyl ether from water using solid phase microextraction and ion mobility spectrometry

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is commonly used as chemical additive to increase oxygen content and octane rating of reformulated gasoline. Despite its impact on enhancing cleaner combustion of gasoline, MTBE poses a threat to surface and ground water when gasoline is released into the environment. Methods for onsite analysis of MTBE in water samples are also needed. A less common technique for MTBE detection from water is ion mobility spectrometry (IMS). We describe a method for fast sampling and screening of MTBE from water by solid phase microextraction (SPME) and IMS. MTBE is adsorbed from the head space of a sample to the coating of SPME fiber. The interface containing a heated sample chamber, which couples SPME and IMS, was constructed and the SPME fiber was introduced into the sample chamber for thermal desorption and IMS detection of MTBE vapors. The demonstrated SPME-IMS method proved to be a straightforward method for the detection of trace quantities of MTBE from waters including surface and ground water. We determined the relative standard deviation of 8.3% and detection limit of 5 mg L⁻¹ for MTBE. Because of short sampling, desorption, and detection times, the described configuration of combined SPME and IMS is a feasible method for the detection of hazardous substances from environmental matrices.     

Sulfur trace determination in petroleum products by isotope dilution ICP-MS using direct injection by thermal vaporization (TV-ICP-IDMS)

An accurate, sensitive, and fast method for direct determination of total sulfur in petroleum products after thermal vaporization of an isotope-diluted sample was developed by using ICP-MS. ³⁴S-labelled dibenzothiophene spike was used for the isotope dilution step. The isotope-diluted sample was injected into a thermal vaporizer which was directly connected by a heated transfer line to the plasma torch. Sample transport was achieved by using a helium gas flow, and the isotope ratio ³⁴S/³²S was determined within seconds after injection. No other sample preparation other than the simple and fast isotope dilution step, which enables accurate and sensitive determination of sulfur at high sample throughputs, is necessary. Thus, this technique fits all needs for routine analyses. Validation of the TV-ICP-IDMS method was carried out by analyzing the certified gas oil reference materials BCR672 and BCR107. Comparison of results for noncertified low- and high-boiling samples, obtained from an ICP-IDMS microwave-assisted digestion method, also resulted in very good agreement. The low detection limit of 40 ng/g and the large dynamic range of TV-ICP-IDMS fulfill all necessities to allow analysis of sulfur in different petroleum products, e.g., even at the low concentration level of ‘sulfur-free’ gasoline.     

Isotope dilution ICP-MS with laser-assisted sample introduction for direct determination of sulfur in petroleum products

Inductively coupled plasma isotope dilution mass spectrometry (ICP-IDMS) with direct laser-assisted introduction of isotope-diluted samples into the plasma, using a laser ablation system with high ablation rates, was developed for accurate sulfur determinations in different petroleum products such as sulfur-free premium gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. Two certified gas oil reference materials were analyzed for method validation. Two different ³⁴S-enriched spike compounds, namely, elementary sulfur dissolved in xylene and dibenzothiophene in hexane, were synthesized and tested for their usefulness in this isotope dilution technique. The isotope-diluted sample was adsorbed on a filter-paper-like material, which was fixed in a special holder for irradiation by the laser beam. Under these conditions no time-dependent spike/analyte fractionation was only observed for the dibenzothiophene spike during the laser ablation process, which means that the measured ³⁴S/³²S isotope ratio of the isotope-diluted sample remained constant—a necessary precondition for accurate results with the isotope dilution technique. A comparison of LA-ICP-IDMS results with the certified values of the gas oil reference materials and with results obtained from ICP-IDMS analyses with wet sample digestion demonstrated the accuracy of the new LA-ICP-IDMS method in the concentration range of 9.2 g g^–1 (sulfur-free premium gasoline) to 10.4 mg g^–1 (gas oil reference material BCR 107). The detection limit for sulfur by LA-ICP-IDMS is 0.04 g g^–1 and the analysis time is only about 10 min, which therefore also qualifies this method for accurate determinations of low sulfur contents in petroleum products on a routine level.This article is dedicated to Wilhelm Fresenius who has continuously supported the academic career of Klaus G. Heumann and the analytical work of his group.
