ASTM-D7164 › Standard Practice for On-line/At-line Heating Value Determination of Gaseous Fuels by Gas Chromatography
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This practice is for the determination of heating value in high methane content gaseous fuels such as natural gas using an on-line/at-line gas chromatograph.
1.2 Units—The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
Significance and Use
5.1 On-line, at-line, in-line, and other near-real time monitoring systems that measure fuel gas characteristics such as the heating value are prevalent in the natural gas and fuel gas industries. The installation and operation of particular systems vary on the specific objectives, process type, regulatory requirements, and internal performance requirements needed by the user. This protocol is intended to provide guidelines for standardized start-up procedures, operating procedures, and quality assurance practices for on-line, at-line, in-line, and other near-real time heating value monitoring systems.
