Storage Stability of Volatile Organic Compounds from Petrochemical Plant of China in Different Sample Bags

الملخص EN

According to the emission characteristics of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the petrochemical plants of China, the storage stability of VOCs for two different bags, polyester aluminum (PEA) and polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), was investigated in this study by comparing the adsorption of gas samples.

A series of experiments were carried out to study the impact of different factors of sampling in the petrochemical industry.

The results showed that the C2∼C3 substances can be adsorbed by the Tedlar bag, and after being refilled with pure nitrogen, the VOCs adsorbed previously by the bag material can be released.

The aromatic hydrocarbon VOCs with larger molecular weight had a relatively lower recovery rate than the smaller molecular weights.

And the average recovery of PEA airbags was significantly better than that of PVF airbags for storing stationary VOCs in the refinery of China.

More kinds of substances can be detected in the airbags that had been added with helium protective gas, and it had a higher recovery rate for both kinds of simple bags after 24 hours of storage time, which indicated that the airbags without protective gas had adsorbed these substances.
