This standard is applicable to the determination of total hydrocarbons, methane and nonmethane total hydrocarbons in the organized stationary source emission.
When the injection volume is 1.0 ml, the detection limit of total hydrocarbon and methane by this method is 0.06 mg/m3 (in terms of methane), and the lower limit of determination is 0.24 mg/m3 (in terms of methane); the detection limit of nonmethane hydrocarbons is 0.07 mg/m3 (in terms of carbon) and the lower limit of determination is 0.28 mg/m3 (in terms of carbon).
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this standard. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
total hydrocarbons (THC)
the sum of gaseous organic compounds that respond to the flame ionization detector of gas chromatographs under the determination conditions specified in this standard.
3.2
nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHC)
the sum of other gaseous organic compounds after the removal of methane from the total hydrocarbons under the determination conditions specified in this standard (the results are in terms of carbon, unless otherwise stated).
4 Method and principle
The gas sample is directly injected into a gas chromatograph with a flame ionization detector to determine the total hydrocarbon and methane contents on the total hydrocarbon column and the methane column, respectively, and the difference is the content of nonmethane hydrocarbons. At the same time, the sample is replaced by hydrocarbon-free air to determine the response of oxygen on the total hydrocarbon column, so as to deduct the interference of oxygen in the sample on the determination of total hydrocarbons.
5 Reagents and materials
Unless otherwise stated, the analytical chemical reagent and distilled water that meet the national standard are used for analysis.
5.1 Hydrocarbon-free air: total hydrocarbon content (including oxygen peak) ≤ 0.40 mg/m3 (in terms of methane); or determined on a methane column, without other peaks except for oxygen peak.
5.2 Methane standard gas: 16.0 μmol/mol, 800 μmol/mol, and the equilibrium gas is nitrogen. It is also possible to customize a suitable standard gas from a qualified manufacturer according to actual work needs.
5.3 Nitrogen: with purity ≥ 99.999%.
5.4 Hydrogen: with purity ≥ 99.99%.
5.5 Air: purified with a purifying pipe.
5.6 Standard dilution gas: high purity nitrogen or hydrocarbon removal nitrogen, with purity ≥99.999%, tested according to the sample determination (Sub-clause 8.3) steps; the determination results of total hydrocarbons shall be lower than the detection limit of standard method.
6 Instruments and apparatus
6.1 Sampling container: syringe of glass materials, with a volume of no less than 100 ml, cleaned and dried for use; bag material meets the relevant requirements of HJ 732, with a volume of no less than 1 L, and it is cleaned with hydrocarbon removal air (Sub-clause 5.1) at least 3 times before use.
6.2 Sampling device: the requirements of the bag sampling device meet the relevant provisions of HJ 732, as shown in Figure 1; the requirements of the glass syringe sampling device meet the relevant provisions of GB/T 16157, as shown in Figure 2.
