Description

Device and method for rapidly detecting total volatile organic compounds
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of chemical detection and analysis, in particular to a device and a method for rapidly detecting total volatile organic compounds.
Background
Volatile organic pollutants (VOC) are organic compounds with a saturated vapor pressure of more than 70.9Pa or a boiling point of less than 260 ℃ at room temperature, and Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC) are the sum of various volatile organic pollutants, including benzene series, alkanes, alkenes, halogenated hydrocarbons, esters, ketoaldehydes and other volatile organic compounds. The TVOC outdoor pollution source mainly comes from fuel combustion and transportation, and the indoor pollution source mainly comes from building materials such as artificial boards, plastic boards, foam heat insulation materials and the like, and decorative materials such as coatings, paints and adhesives. The volatile organic compounds have irritation, teratogenicity, carcinogenicity and mutagenicity, can directly affect the skin and mucous membranes to cause acute damage to human bodies, can also affect the functions of digestive systems to cause symptoms such as inappetence, nausea and the like, and can even affect the functions of central nervous systems to cause symptoms such as dizziness, somnolence, weakness, chest distress and the like, thereby causing serious threat to the health of the human bodies. Moreover, volatile organic compounds can cause atmospheric pollution, soil pollution, water pollution and the like, and destroy the ecological environment. Therefore, the method has important significance for enhancing the detection of the total volatile organic compounds.
The standard method for detecting TVOC in indoor air is specified by the 'control of indoor environmental pollution in civil construction engineering' (GB 50325-2001): the TVOC in the air is enriched by a Tenax-TA tube, enters a gas chromatograph after thermal analysis, is separated by a capillary chromatographic column, and is detected by an FID detector. All compounds identified from the chromatogram between n-hexane and n-hexadecane were quantified and the concentration of unidentified volatile organic compounds was calculated using the response coefficient of toluene. The method has the disadvantages of low detection limit, good precision and accuracy, long time consumption, 1h consumption for analyzing one sample, and difficult realization of real-time online monitoring. In recent years, some new TVOC detection methods such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, high performance liquid chromatography, ion chromatography, fluorescence spectroscopy and the like, and reflection interference spectroscopy have emerged, and although these large-scale precise instruments can perform comprehensive and accurate analysis on compounds, the instruments are expensive, the operation is complex and time-consuming, and real-time online analysis is not easy to realize, so that the application of the instruments is limited. The gas sensor has the characteristics of simple structure, small volume, relatively low manufacturing cost, convenient operation, real-time online monitoring and the like, and the application of the gas sensor in the detection of TVOC is emphasized. The TVOC detection device which is simple and convenient to develop is used for realizing the rapid determination of the TVOC of the sample to be detected, and has important significance.
The catalytic luminescence refers to the phenomenon that molecules are catalyzed and oxidized to generate chemiluminescence when passing through the surface of a catalyst, a catalytic luminescence sensor only needs to consume a sample to be detected and an oxidant (usually oxygen in air) in the determination process, an external reagent is not needed, and the catalytic luminescence sensor is simple in instrument and equipment, high in analysis speed, capable of realizing real-time online detection and widely applied to the field of rapid detection of volatile organic compounds in recent years. The prior catalytic luminescence sensor generally adopts oxygen (weak oxidant) in the air as an oxidant, adopts a catalyst with specific response to a certain compound or a certain class of compounds as a sensing element, and realizes the detection of the certain compound or the certain class of compounds, but the types of the detected compounds are limited, and the requirements of TVOC detection cannot be met.
