Summary of Test Method 3.1 Combustion Method A (1350°C)—A weighed test por- tion of sample is burned in a tube furnace at a minimum combustion tube operating temperature of 1350°C in a stream of oxygen. During combustion at temperatures above 1350 °C, the sulfur and sulfur compounds coutained ia the sample are decompased and oxidizedalmost exclusively to gaseous sulfur dioxide, SO;. Moisture and particulates are removed from the {gas by filters. The gas stream is passed through a cell in which Sulfur dioxide is measured by an infrared (IR) absorption detector. Sulfur dioxide absorbs IR energy at a precise wave length within te IR spectrum. Energy is absorbed as the gas ppasses through the cell body in which the IR energy is being fransmitted: thus, st the detector, less energy is received. All coher IR energy is eliminated from reaching the detector by a precise wavelength filter. Thus, the absorption of IR energy can be attributed only to sulfur dioxide whose concentration is proportional to the change in energy at the detector. One cell is fused as both a reference and a measurement chamber. Total sulfur as sulfur dioxide is detected on a continuous basis. 3.1 One procedure for Method A uses coal or coke reference materials to calibrate the sulfur analyzer.

Sulfur is oxidized during the reaction of the sample and WO,, The tube furnace is operated at a minimum, ‘combustion tube operating temperature of 1150°C and tin (Sn) sample boats ate utifized. Moisture and particulates are re= moved from the combustion gas by filters. The gas stream is then passed through a cell in which sulfur dioxide is measured by am infrared (IR) absorption detector. Sulfur dioxide absorbs IR nergy at a precise wavelength within the IR spectrum, Energy is absorbed as the gas passes through the cell body in which the IR energy iy being transmitted: dhus, atthe detector, less energy is received, Al other IR energy is eliminated from reaching the detector by a precise wavelength filter, Thus, the absorption of IR energy can he attributed only to sulfur dioxide ‘whose concentration is proportional tothe change in energy at the detector. One cell is used as both a reference and a measurement chamber. Total sulfur as sulfur dioxide is de- fected on a continuous basis, 4. Significance and Use 4.1 Sulfur is part of the ultimate analysis of coal and coke. 1.2. Revults of the sulfur analysis are used for evaluation of coal preparation and cleaning, evaluation of potential sulfur emissions from coal and coke combustion of conversion processes, and evaluation of coal and coke quality in relation 19 contract specifications, as well as far scientific purposes. 43 The competency of laboratories with respect to use of this standard can be established through reference to Practice 7448, 5.
