Use of GC/MSD for Determination of Volatile Sulfur: Application in Natural Gas Fuel Cell Systems and Other Gaseous Streams
Abstract:
The mass selective detector is an ideal tool for the analysis of trace level volatile compounds. It is differentiated from other sulfur-selective detectors in that structural information is provided. When operated in the Selected Ion Monitoring mode, excellent sensitivity and selectivity is obtained. Eight volatile sulfur compounds are used to demonstrate low parts-per-billion analysis in a variety of hydrocarbon matrices. The system is well suited for fuel cell developers for characterization of fuel feedstocks and the analysis of impurities that can poison critical catalytic processes. Measurement of carbonyl sulfide in propylene is also demonstrated.
