Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A method of and apparatus for determining the concentration of sulfur atoms in a plurality of the same or different combustible molecules in a fluid by burning a measured quantity of the fluid and analyzing the combustion products of said measured quantity of the fluid by the use of at least one equipment of the group including, but not limited to, a coulometric titrator and a photometer. It is practically impossible to detect, for example, COS and CS in natural gas by the use of a coulometric titrator.
  • each sulfur atom in the COS and CS combines with two oxygen atoms to form S0 the concentration of which can be measured with a coulometric titrator.
  • This is important for a number of reasons. For example, it is important to know the sulfur atom concentration in natural gas or liquified petroleum gas used in hydrogen production. Information obtained by monitoring the sulfur atom concentration enables operating personnel to take steps to increase efficiency and to prevent expensive catalyst damage or decomposition in such hydrogen production. The ecological advantages of monitoring the sulfur atom concentration in natural or other gas are self-evident.
  • This invention relates to the art of gas analysis, and more particularly, to a method of and apparatus for analyzing elements and/or compounds which cannot be analyzed by conventional methods or equipments.
  • the present invention is not limited to the applications set forth herein, but has been found to be especially useful in monitoring elemental sulfur and/or sulfur compounds in, for example, natural gas and in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
  • LPG liquefied petroleum gas
  • the more or less total sulfur content of natural gas including, but not necessarily limited to, the sulfur in COS and CS can cause inefficiency and catalyst degradation in hydrogen production.
  • the catalysts so used are conventional in conventional hydrogen production processes. However, these catalysts are expensive to replace once they have become degraded.
  • Another feature of the present invention includes a combustion chamber having a spark ignitor.
  • a further feature of the invention includes a burner assembly in the combustion chamber for the oxygen and sample gas.
  • a still further feature of the invention includes an external heater for the combustion chamber to keep it free of water condensation expecially during and shortly after initial ignition of the sample gas.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the system of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a bottom plan view of a combustion assembly shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a vertical sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of the combustion assembly shown in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a broken away transverse sectional view taken on the line 4-4 of the combustion assembly shown in FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 5 is an enlarged top plan view of a burner assembly taken on the line 5-5 shown in FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 6 is a vertical sectional view taken on the line 6-6 of the burner assembly shown in FIG. 5;
  • FIG. 7 is a sectional view, partly in elevation, of a conventional water trap shown in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
  • Assembly 10 is supplied with oxygen from an oxygen tank 11 through a needle valve 12 and a flow recorder 13.
  • a combustible sample gas such as natural gas, is supplied to assembly 10 from a gas sample source 14 via a needle valve 15 and a flow recorder 16.
  • spark ignitor 17 is of the type disclosed in US. Pat. No. 3,662,185, hereinafter referred to as the said patent.
  • Assembly 10 before ignition of the sample gas is preferably heated by passing current through a resistive heater winding 18 from a source of potential 19. If desired, heater winding 18 may heat assembly 10 continuously during both initial ignition and subsequent continuous burning. By keeping assembly 10 warm, water vapor does not condense in assembly 10 but only near an end 20 of a conduit 21 which connects the outlet of assembly 10 to a water trap 22.
  • conduit 21 is made of metal.
  • Water which collects in trap 22 is vented to the atmosphere through an exhaust conduit 23.
  • the plumbing and the rate of combustion is controlled by adjustment of needle valves 12 and 15 so that there is always an excess of combustion products, other than water, inside trap 22. That is, the combustion products, other than water, enter trap 22 via conduit 21 at a rate greater than that at which they are withdrawn therefrom via conduit 24.
  • a coulometric titrator is indicated at 25.
  • Titrator 25 may be indentical to that disclosed in the said patent.
  • Titrator 25 has an electrolytic cell 26 through which the gas in conduit 24 is bubbled.
  • Cell 26 has an electrical output which impressed upon a titrator circuit 27.
  • the output of circuit 27 may be impressed upon a conventional recorder 28, if desired.
  • any utilization means may be employed in lieu of recorder 28.
  • a conduit 29 is connected from the gas outlet of cell 26 to an aspirator 30.
  • Aspirator 30 is supplied with air from an air source 31 'via a needle valve 32.
  • Aspirators has a vent 33.
  • Aspirator 30 merely acts to withdraw the gas in cell 26 through conduit 29, and vent it to the at mosphere.
  • organic sulfur compounds and H S can be oxidized to S by combustion with oxygen in a closed system with only slight loss in sensitivity.
  • the products of combustion of the hydrocarbons in the sample are CO and water vapor. After condensation of water vapor, SO present in the CO is titrated in the titrator 25.
  • the concentration of 50;, in the flue gas from combustion of a sample at a given sulfur concentration is proportional to the oxygen concentration in the combustion mixture. Note will be taken that the presence of S0 is undesirable because it will give no titration reading.
  • a stable oxygen and hydrocarbon flame can be maintained in a vented combustion chamber from which air is excluded at mixtures of hydrocarbon and oxygen where the oxygen concentration is as low as about 80 percent of the stoichiometric quantity.
  • sulfur compounds are burned under reducing conditions, i.e., when the oxygen is less than about 85 percent of the stoichiometric concentration that produces CO and H 0, the concentration of S0 is reduced to a practical low percentage of the sulfur present.
  • reduced sulfur compounds e.g., RSI-I, H S, RSR and S0 are detected in gas samples and concentration is measured by titrator 25.
  • R as used in the immediately preceding sentence, means any one of the alkyl groups such as CH or C H or a higher grouping.
  • the present invention overcomes some additional problems as follows. In the first place, the titrator of the said patent employs a bromine reagent. The bromine required for oxidaton of the compounds listed in this paragraph varies so that separation of the various classes of or ganic sulfur compounds by selective filters is conventionally required where accurate data for the total sulfur concentration is required.
  • unsaturated hydrocarbons are subject to some slight addition of bromine and, therefore, cause interference with sulfur measurement when olefinic concentration is above the range of about 0.5 percent concentration and sulfur concentration is below two parts per million (ppm).
  • some organic sulfur compounds of importance to users of natural gas notably COS and CO are not oxidized by a low concentration of bromine in a acqueous solution.
  • Sulfur can be oxidized in air to form S0
  • sample dilution occurs due to the nitrogen present in the air.
  • some N0 is produced which causes a negative instrument response in bromine titration.
  • needle valve 15 may be adjusted so that natural gas is supplied to assembly 10 at a rate of, for example, 200 millileters per minute. Needle valve 12 is then adjusted so that oxygen is supplied to assembly 10 at a rate which is, for example, percent of the stoichiometric rate.
  • spark ignitor 17 is connected to electrical power, after a few attempts, the natural gas and oxygen, which are mixed together, are ignited to form a flame above a burner assembly, to be described, inside combustion assembly 10. The products of the combustion in assembly 10 are then driven through conduit 21 into trap 22. Water is then vented at 23.
  • Titrator circuit 27 then produces an output signal which is directly proportional to the S0 in the combustion products flowing to cell 26 via conduit 24. Recorder 28 then records the magnitude of the output signal of titrator circuit 27.
  • FIG. 2 A bottom plan view of closed combustion assembly 10 is shown in FIG. 2 including a mounting plate 34 which has bolt holes 35 for mounting.

  • Plate 34 has a more or less elliptical hole therein as shown at 49 in FIGS. 2 and 3. Hole 49 permits access to two conventionally threaded inlets 50 and 51. Only inlet 51 is shown in FIG. 3 due to the type of section taken. Inlet 50 may be, for example, the oxygen inlet. Inlet 51 may thus be the natural gas inlet.
  • Inlets 50 and 51 have passages 52 and 53, respectively, which intercept a bore 54 in insert 43, shown in FIG. 3. That is, passages 52 and 53 not only intercept bore 54, they also intercept the respective inlets 50 and 51. For example, see passage 53 in FIG. 3.
