  • Stoddard Solvent 105 6. Analytical Methods 6.2
    STODDARD SOLVENT 105 6. ANALYTICAL METHODS 6.2 ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES As with biological materials, detection of Stoddard solvent in environmental samples is based on the detection of component hydrocarbons. See Table 6-2 for a summary of the analytical methods used to determine Stoddard solvent hydrocarbons in environmental samples. The primary method for detecting volatile components of Stoddard solvent in air is GC using a flame ionization detector (FID) (NIOSH 1984; Otson et al. 1983). Stoddard solvent in air may be determined by absorption to an appropriate column such as charcoal, desorption in a solvent (carbon disulfide is recommended), and subsequent quantification. Although the precision of this method is good (greater than 10% relative standard deviation when the recovery is greater than 80%), in general, recovery tends to be rather poor (18-80%) because of the slow volatilization of Stoddard solvent (Otson et al. 1983). No analytical methods specific for Stoddard solvent in water or soil samples were located; however, determination of Stoddard solvent may be assumed to be similar to the detection of comparable hydrocarbon mixtures. Detection of Stoddard solvent in water is dependent on the identification and quantification of the specific hydrocarbon components of the solvent. The primary method, GC either alone or in combination with MS, may be used for the identification of the major hydrocarbon components, i.e., n-alkanes, branched alkanes, cycloalkanes, and alkylbenzenes. Separation of the aliphatic and aromatic fractions may be achieved by liquid-solid column chromatography followed by dilution of the eluates with carbon disulfide. Aqueous samples may be extracted with trichlorotrifluoroethane, while solid samples may be extracted by Soxhlet extraction or sonication methods (Air Force 1989).

  • Effect of Water Saturation on H2 and CO Solubility in Hydrocarbons
    chemengineering Brief Report Effect of Water Saturation on H2 and CO Solubility in Hydrocarbons Omar M. Basha Department of Chemical, Biochemical and Bio Engineering, North Carolina A&T State University, Greensboro, NC 27411, USA; [email protected] Received: 31 August 2018; Accepted: 28 January 2019; Published: 22 February 2019 Abstract: The effect of water on the solubility of syngas in hydrocarbons has typically been ignored when developing models for Fischer-Tropsch slurry bubble column reactors (SBCR), despite water being a major by-product. Therefore, a generalized correlation was developed to predict water solubility in hydrocarbons at high temperatures, and was used to calculate the effect of water saturation on H2 and CO solubility in hydrocarbons using the Span Wagner equation of state. The presence of water was shown to have a much more significant effect on H2 solubility in hydrocarbons, compared to CO. Keywords: solubility; water; hydrocarbons; syngas; Fischer-Tropsch; water-hydrocarbon mixtures 1. Introduction The effect of the presence of water on syngas solubility in Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) Slurry Bubble Column Reactors (SBCR) has received little attention, despite water being a major by-product. Although there have been numerous investigations to measure solubilities and mass transfer parameters of CO and H2 in F-T hydrocarbon fractions and slurries under a variety of operating conditions, the effect of water is typically neglected. Moreover, in most of the F-T SBCR models, liquid properties are typically determined for pure hydrocarbons or hydrocarbon mixtures, while disregarding the effect of water saturation on the physical properties of the hydrocarbons or on the gas solubilities.

Tan, and Mohammad Piri Department of Petroleum Engineering, University of Wyoming, Laramie, Wyoming 82071, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Confinement in nanopores can significantly impact the chemical and physical behavior of fluids. While some quantitative under- standing is available for how pure fluids behave in nanopores, there is little such insight for mixtures. This study aims to shed light on how nanoporosity impacts the phase behavior and composition of confined mixtures through comparison of the effects of static and dynamic equilibrium on experimentally measured isotherms and chromatographic analysis of the experimental fluids. To this end, a novel gravimetric apparatus is introduced and validated. Unlike apparatuses that have been previously used to study the confinement-induced phase behavior of fluids, this apparatus employs a gravimetric technique capable of discerning phase transitions in a wide variety of nanoporous media under both static and dynamic conditions. The apparatus was successfully validated against data in the literature for pure carbon dioxide and n-pentane. Then, isotherms were generated for binary mixtures of carbon dioxide and n- pentane using static and flow-through methods. Finally, two ternary mixtures of carbon dioxide, n-pentane, and isopentane were measured using the static method. While the equilibrium time was found important for determination of confined phase transitions, flow rate in the dynamic method was not found to affect the confined phase behavior.

  • Flashbacks Causes and Prevention
    Flashbacks Causes and Prevention Dan Banks, PE www.banksengineering.com Overview Flashbacks in process equipment are dangerous Best Practice: Design to avoid flashbacks Prediction: We have data and calculations to predict when a gas mixture is “flammable”. Avoid forming a flammable mixture to avoid problems. Worst Case: Equipment failure, operator error or “the unexpected” result in a flashback, anyway. Backup Plan: When there’s a chance that one day a flashback might occur, we build in countermeasures to keep them isolated and extinguish them quickly. This presentation explains how we predict flammability in various situations, and how special hardware is used to stop a flashback in its tracks. Not covered: hydrocarbon leaks to atmosphere, dust explosions, steam “explosions”, chemical reactions aside from combustion Flammability Flammable mixtures have enough oxygen and enough hydrocarbons to sustain combustion, once ignited. A mixture can be too “lean” or too “rich” to be flammable. The Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) of methane in air is 5% by volume. 4.9% methane in air will not sustain combustion at ambient temperature and pressure. The Upper Explosive Limit (UEL) of methane in air is 15%. Enriching to 15.1% makes the mixture non flammable at ambient temperature and pressure. Heating or pressurizing the methane/air mixture changes the LEL and UEL values (as described later). Next slide: tested values for a number of common hydrocarbons.

  • Final Updated Petroleum Hydrocarbon Fraction Toxicity Values for the Vph
    FINAL UPDATED PETROLEUM HYDROCARBON FRACTION TOXICITY VALUES FOR THE VPH/EPH/APH METHODOLOGY Prepared for: Bureau of Waste Site Cleanup Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Boston, MA Prepared by: Office of Research and Standards Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Boston, MA November 2003 PREFACE In 1994 the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MA DEP) described a new approach for the evaluation of human health risks from ingestion exposures to complex petroleum hydrocarbon mixtures (MA DEP, 1994). The basis of the new approach was treating groups of compounds as if they had similar toxicities, in the absence of specific toxicity information on all the members of the group. The report included oral toxicity values for each of the designated petroleum hydrocarbon fractions. Since that time, there have been more recent efforts by others on this topic and additional information has become available to serve as a basis for updating the toxicity values. This document contains reviews of the more recent information, revisions to the oral toxicity values proposed in the 1994 report and new inhalation toxicity values. Readers will find different hydrocarbon compound size cutoffs for the hydrocarbon ranges identified here and in the 1994 report, compared to those in other related supporting documentation for this approach (i.e., the MA DEP VPH/EPH/APH analytical methods; guidance for Characterizing Risks Posed by Petroleum Contaminated Sites (MA DEP, 2002); risk spreadsheets for the MA DEP Bureau of Waste Site Cleanup). These differences relate primarily to subdivisions or truncation of ranges mandated by the analytical protocols employed for the analysis of the hydrocarbons (volatile (VPH), extractable (EPH) and air-phase(APH)) .

  • Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons
    TOTAL PETROLEUM HYDROCARONS 93 6. HEALTH EFFECTS 6.1 INTRODUCTION The primary purpose of this chapter is to provide public health officials, physicians, toxicologists, and other interested individuals and groups with an overall perspective on the toxicology of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), and an understanding of various approaches used to assess petroleum hydrocarbons on the basis of fractions, individual indicator compounds, and appropriate surrogates. This chapter also provides descriptions and evaluations of toxicological studies and epidemiological investigations for these TPH fractions, indicator compounds, and surrogates, and provides conclusions, where possible, on the relevance of toxicity and toxicokinetics data to public health. 6.1.1 TPH Definition and Issues Overview. The assessment of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated sites has involved analysis for “total petroleum hydrocarbons” or TPH. TPH is a loosely defined aggregate that depends on the method of analysis as well as the contaminating material, and represents the total mass of hydrocarbons without identification of individual components (see Chapter 3). As TPH is not a consistent entity, the assessment of health effects and development of health guidance values, such as Minimal Risk Levels (MRLs) for TPH as a single entity are problematic. Earlier in the profile (Chapters 2 and 3), various TPH approaches were presented that divide TPH into fractions or groups of compounds based on analytical, fate and transport, and exposure issues. Similarly, several different approaches have also been evolving to assess the health effects of TPH on the basis of indicator compounds for separate fractions, which consist of petroleum hydrocarbons with similar physical and chemical properties. ATSDR’s approach to potential health effects from exposure to TPH uses surrogate health effects guidelines for each fraction, whether they represent an individual compound or a whole petroleum product.

The TRRP rule was initially published in the September 17, 1999 Texas Register (24 TexReg 7413-7944) and was amended in 2007 (effective March 19, 2007; 32 TexReg 1526-1579). Find links for the TRRP rule and preamble, Tier 1 PCL tables, and other TRRP information at: www.tceq.state.tx.us/remediation/trrp/. TRRP guidance documents undergo periodic revision and are subject to change. Referenced TRRP guidance documents may be in development. Links to current versions are at: www.tceq.state.tx.us/remediation/trrp/guidance.html. Contact: TCEQ Remediation Division Technical Support Section - 512-239-2200, or [email protected] For mailing addresses, refer to: www.tceq.state.tx.us/about/directory/ Please note that the Texas Risk Reduction Program (TRRP) does not require that total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) be evaluated as a chemical of concern (COC) at an affected property. The COCs to be evaluated under the TRRP, including TPH, are decided by the person undertaking the corrective action in coordination with the applicable TCEQ program area. See TCEQ guidance document Selecting Target COCs (RG-366/TRRP-10) for further information. If you or the TCEQ program area determine that TPH is an applicable COC for an affected property, then this document should be followed to guide the development of appropriate PCLs for the TPH mixture(s) at the affected property.
