A better understanding of the molecular composition of effluent organic matter(Ef OM) in the treated effluents of municipal wastewater treatment plants(WWTPs) is crucial for ensuring the safety of water reuse. In this study, the molecular composition of Ef OM in the secondary effluent of a WWTP in Beijing and the reclaimed water further treated with a coagulation–sedimentation–ozonation process were characterized using a non-target Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry(FT-ICR MS) method and compared to that of natural organic matter(NOM) in the local source water from a reservoir. It was found that the molecular composition of Ef OM in the secondary effluent and reclaimed water was dominated by CHOS formulas, while NOM in the source water was dominated by CHO formulas. The CHO formulas of the three samples had similar origins. Anthropogenic surfactants were responsible for the CHOS formulas in Ef OM of the secondary effluent and were not well removed by the coagulation-sedimentation-ozonation treatment process adopted.展开更多

The acid class(heteroatom number), type(z numbers) and carbon number distributions were positively characterized. It was found out that the total acid number(TAN) of SL crude decreased after true boiling point distillation, and the abundance of O2 class in mass spectra was also found to be reduced from 67.6% to 34.5% in SL TBP mixed crude as measured by MS spectra, indicating to a potential carboxylic acid decomposition. However, it was interesting that the carboxylic acids type distribution in both oils was almost the same although their relative abundance in SL TBP mixed crude turned to be much lower, suggesting that various petroleum carboxylic acid types have the similar thermal decomposition reaction behavior. Furthermore, for each O2 type of acids in SL TBP mixed crude, the abundance of carboxylic acids with carbon number higher than 35 was reduced greatly, especially for those with carbon number higher than 60, the mass peaks of which were nearly totally removed, indicating that the large carboxylic acid molecules in heavy fractions decomposed more significantly because of longer heating time during the true boiling point distillation process. As a result, the reduction of TAN may be caused by the thermal decomposition of carboxylic acids especially those with high carbon number, suggesting that quick distillation or much lower pressure is required to avoid the thermal decomposition.展开更多

The analytical results revealed that the coker gas oil (CGO) contained a higher abundance of basic-nitrogen aromatic compounds with the type of-SN to -9N compared with those in deasphalted oil (DAO) and mixed FCC feedstock. After catalytic cracking, the abundance of lowly condensed basic-nitrogen aromatic compounds was much less than those of highly condensed aromatics in the liquid products, with the carbon number mainly ranging from 6 to 25 and the average carbon number of the side-chains equating to 1--5. On the contrary, with respect to the soluble components of coke, the abundance of lowly condensed basic-nitrogen aromatic compounds was more than those of highly condensed aromatics, and the carbon number ranged from 12 to 30, which was much smaller than that of the mixed FCC feedstock but slightly larger than that of the cracked liquid products. These results have provided some fundamental information on FCC process.展开更多

The molecular composition of polar heteroatom species in both asphaltene and its fractions were ana- lyzed by negative-ion electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ESI FT-ICR MS). The application of UV-vis spectrometer in characterizing asphaltene composition and measuring asphaltene concentration was discussed. About 11.9 wt% asphaltene components adsorbed permanently on silica gel in the extrography column after exces- sive elution with various solvents. In negative FT-ICR MS, the mass spectra show that acidic and neutral nitrogen-containing compounds such as N1 and NIS1 mainly existe in the first three less polar fractions, while oxygen-containing compounds such as 02, O2S, O2S2, 03, and 04 show high relative abundance in more polar fractions. These results suggest oxygen-containing compounds have stronger adsorption ability with silica gel. It was observed that the double bond equivalence (DBE) distribu- tion of N1 class species in the fractions shifted to higher values while the carbon number shifted to smaller numbers as polarity of fractions increased. This indicates that acidic and neutral Nl compounds with longer carbon chain and less aromaticity have less polarity compared with those with shorter carbon chain and stronger aromaticity. UV-vis absorbance indicats that fractions containing the most aromatic and most polar asphaltene have better absorbance at long wavelength, while the fractions that consist of least aromatic and least polar asphatlenes show high absorbance at short wavelength.展开更多

Both broadband and quadrupole isolation modes positive-ion electrospray ionization (ESI) Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) coupled with collision induced dissociation (CID) tech- niques were used to characterize a low sulfur crude oil derived vacuum residuum (VR). The appropriate CID operating condi- tion was selected by comparing the molecular weight distributions of the basic nitrogen compounds under various CID operat- ing conditions. Both odd- and even-electron fragment ions were observed from the mass spectrum, indicating that the hetero- lyric and homolytic bond cleavages occurred simultaneously during the CID process. The odd-electron fragment ions were predominant in each class species, indicating preferential heterolytic bond cleavages. At the optimal CID condition, the alkyl groups decomposed deeply and just left the aromatic cores of the nitrogen compounds. No Significant variation in double bond equivalent (DBE) value was observed between the fragment and parent ions, revealing that the domination of single core structure.展开更多
