Discrepancy in infrared measurement results of carbon monoxide in nitrogen mixtures due to variations of the 13C/12C isotope ratio

Significant errors in the non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) analyses of carbon monoxide (CO) can be made when the ¹³C/¹²C isotope ratio in the sample and the calibrant differ significantly. This paper shows that variations in the ¹³C/¹²C isotope ratio of 5×10⁻² mol/mol CO in nitrogen mixtures on three different NDIR CO analysers may lead to serious deviations in the instrument response, whereas the instrument response using GC-TCD is unaffected. The observed deviations in the assigned amount-of-substance fraction CO for a ¹³C depleted mixture vary from +2 to −5% relative to the gravimetric amount-of-substance fraction for different NDIR analysers. A GC-MS method has been developed to perform a pre-screening of the isotopic composition of CO in nitrogen mixtures. This method proved to be an adequate tool to measure differences in the ¹³C/¹²C ratio. Based on the GC-MS results a suitable measurement technique can be selected, or information about a possible error in NDIR analysis can be given to the producer or user of the calibration gas mixture.

Measuring δ13C of atmospheric air with non-dispersive infrared spectroscopy

The potential use of non-dispersive infrared spectroscopy for measuring δ¹³C in air is demonstrated. This technique has already been successfully established for breath test analyses in medical diagnostics, where the CO₂ concentration ranges from 1 to 5 vol.% in the exhaled breath of vertebrates. For breath tests, the sensitivity and accuracy has been improved to reach a standard deviation of 0.2 ‰ (delta-value). Further adjustments were necessary to improve the sensitivity of the instrument at concentration levels typical of atmospheric air. The long-term stability is given by a standard deviation of 0.35 ‰ for CO₂ concentrations of about 400 ppm with signal averaging over 60 s.     

Pocket-Sized Nondispersive Infrared Methane Detection Device Using Two-Parameter Temperature Compensation

With the correction on Beer–Lambert law, a low-cost, low-power, and miniaturization methane detection device is reported by using a two-parameter temperature compensation method. The adopted methane sensor contains a midinfrared light source, an optical path, and a midinfrared dual-channel detector. Control and processing circuits are developed to extract gas concentration, and experiments are carried out to derive detection performances. Two characteristic parameters of the device are achieved through calibration, and their relations with temperature are obtained for accurate compensation. The device is powered by batteries with a total current less than 100 mA, and the power consumption is less than 0.6 W. Both the sensitivity and the minimum detection limit under low concentration range can reach to 50 parts per million. The device also reveals high stability owing to the compensation on temperature variation. Compared with the preexisting wall-mounted devices, this device does well meeting the requirement of detecting explosive gases in a more convenient handheld style.

Effect of variation in argon content of calibration gases on determination of atmospheric carbon dioxide

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a greenhouse gas that makes by far the largest contribution to the global warming of the Earth's atmosphere. For the measurements of atmospheric CO₂ a non-dispersive infrared analyzer (NDIR) and gas chromatography are conventionally being used. We explored whether and to what degree argon content can influence the determination of atmospheric CO₂ using the comparison of CO₂ concentrations between the sample gas mixtures with varying Ar amounts at 0 and 18.6 mmol mol⁻¹ and the calibration gas mixtures with Ar at 8.4, 9.1, and 9.3 mmol mol⁻¹. We newly discovered that variation of Ar content in calibration gas mixtures could undermine accuracy for precise and accurate determination of atmospheric CO₂ in background air. The differences in CO₂ concentration due to the variation of Ar content in the calibration gas mixtures were negligible (<±0.03 μmol mol⁻¹) for NDIR systems whereas they noticeably increased (<±1.09 μmol mol⁻¹) especially for the modified GC systems to enhance instrumental sensitivity. We found that the thermal mass flow controller is the main source of the differences although such differences appeared only in the presence of a flow restrictor in GC systems. For reliable monitoring of real atmospheric CO₂ samples, one should use calibration gas mixtures that contain Ar content close to the level (9.332 mmol mol⁻¹) in the ambient air as possible. Practical guidelines were highlighted relating to selection of appropriate analytical approaches for the accurate and precise measurements of atmospheric CO₂. In addition, theoretical implications from the findings were addressed.

非线性吸收对多组分气体分析的影响及其修正方法

利用非分散红外(NDIR)技术研究了非线性吸收现象对多组分气体分析交叉干扰扣除的影响及其修正方法。理论上推导了由于非线性吸收导致的干扰系数变化对系统测量准确度的影响。对常规的干扰方程组进行了修正,使用干扰函数来定量分析气体间的交叉干扰,当测量气体存在非线性吸收时,干扰函数也会发生相应变化。基于最小二乘法,以三阶多项式为拟合模型,拟合出了系统的干扰函数。利用拟合的干扰函数,通过实验证明了提出的修正方法在系统存在非线性吸收现象时仍能有效地扣除气体间的交叉干扰。
