Abstract

Analyzing the composition of hydrocarbon by using gas chromatograph in petrochemical laboratory RU III Plaju has no limit for allowed impurities. One of the contained impurities is sulfur that can demage the component inside the gas chromatograph. So we need a research to make an additional apparatus (sulfur trap) that can reduce the sulfur content in sample but does not change the composition of hydrocarbon. Zeolite is an effective adsorbent in reducing sulfur. To increase its adsorption, zeolite is activated physically and chemically. In this research, 100 grams of zoelit was heated at 300, 350, 400, 450, 500 and 550oC for one hour. Then it was added with a solution of diethanolamine (DEA) with concentration of 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4 N. Sample flowed through the zeolite with flow rates of 100, 300, and 500 ml/min. The optimum condition was obtained at heating temperature of 450oC, adding 2 N of DEA solution, and 100 ml/min of flow rate with a percentage of sulfur adsorption of 99.97. The sample was still representative because there was no change in the composition of hydrocarbon. Keywords: sulfur trap, gas chromatograph, zeolite, adsorbent, diethanolamine
