Description

The present invention relates to the field of isotope detection, and specifically to a graphitizer, a sampling / preparation system, and a sampling / preparation method.

With the development of society and the improvement of human quality of life, the demand for energy supply is increasing. In the context of sustainable development and green development, new demands have been submitted for energy supply as fossil energy reserves have declined.

Biomass energy is a kind of "carbon neutral" renewable energy. Power supply technology that puts biomass fuel directly into a furnace and burns it will become very advanced in China. According to foreign experience, mixing and burning biomass using a conventional coal-burning boiler is a better way to utilize biomass energy. This combustion method not only improves the power generation efficiency of biomass fuel, but also saves the investment cost of the infrastructure of the biomass direct combustion power plant, and is an efficient and environment-friendly energy acquisition method.

In this combustion method, it may be necessary to measure the mixing ratio of biomass. Carbon-14 is widely used as a measuring method. Carbon-14 ( ^14C ) is a radioisotope of the elemental carbon discovered by Martin Carmen and Sam Ruben of the University of California, Berkeley Radiolab on February 27, 1940.

Carbon-14 is produced when cosmic rays hit nitrogen atoms in the air. Since living organisms participate in the carbon cycle process around the world, the abundance of carbon-14 contained in them often matches the local atmospheric level at that time. Since fossil energy has been buried deep underground for millions of years, it contains almost zero carbon-14. Therefore, by measuring the abundance data of carbon-14 contained in carbon dioxide in the boiler smoke gas of the mixed combustion power plant that mixes and burns coal and biomass, the biomass fuel is mixed with the fuel that this power plant burns. It is possible to know whether or not the fuel is mixed and the proportion of the biomass fuel contained in the fuel.

Radiocarbon dating based on carbon-14 isotopes is the first method used in archaeological and geological studies to discriminate effective biological components. Applying the Carbon-14 method to the detection of a mixed combustion power plant of biomass and coal is different from applying it to the detection of a waste incineration power plant, and the supply of biomass fuel is affected by seasonal changes and collection radius. In China, it may be difficult for mixed combustion power plants to have a biomass content of more than 5%. At low compounding ratios, Accelerator Mass Spectrometry is the most accurate method for detecting carbon-14 abundance, and the sample must first be converted to graphite before testing.

In the prior art, the entire carbon-14 abundance measurement process had to be done separately in the mixed combustion power plant and in the laboratory, specifically, the collection step was completed in the mixed combustion power plant and absorbed alkali. The agent is used to collect the carbon dioxide in the smoke gas, whereas the sample preparation step is completed in a specialized carbon-14 laboratory and receives the sample taken from the mixed combustion power plant. After that, a sample is prepared in a pipe in a high vacuum environment in the laboratory (preparation of a graphite sample), and then a computer test is performed to obtain data on the abundance of carbon-14. Not only is this sampling and preparation process time consuming, but it is inevitable that the collected carbon dioxide will be contaminated by atmospheric carbon dioxide during the storage period before and after it is collected by the alkaline absorber. The test results for the abundance of carbon-14 in the flue gas sample will be offset.

The present invention has been submitted for the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to simplify and speed up sampling and preparation, and to improve the accuracy of test results.
