Abstract

This study is to develop the production method of stepwise dilution gas for the evaluation of complex odor concentration by orifice tube. The basic orifice tube for 10 and 30 times of dilution sample was made at first, and with the combination of the basic orifice tubes we can continuously manufacture the stepwise dilution sample gas for air dilution sensory test ; 10, 30, 100, 300, 1,000, 3,000 times etc. The hole size of orifice tube was 0.84 mm for 10 times of dilution sample, and was 0.34 mm for 30 times. Dilution sample gas made with the basic orifice tube have an excellent reproducibility, 2%RSD. In addition, over 90% of correlation was shown between the sample made by the orifice tube and the sample by the syringe dilution method. Because there was no concentration drift of dilution gas with changes of connected pump flow, the basic orifice tube could be mounted directly with a vacuum suction box, and could be used simply as a tool for the evaluation of odor, especially on site.

본 연구는 냄새 농도 평가를 위한 공기희석관능법의 단계별 희석가스 제조방법에 관한 것으로, 시료가스와 무취가스를 오리피스 튜브로 조절하여 희석하는 방법에 관한 것이다. 10배 및 30배 희석용 오리피스 튜브를 설계하고, 10, 30, 100, 300 및 1,000배 등의 단계별 희석가스를 10배 및 30배 희석용 오리피스 튜브를 반복적으로 사용하여 다양한 희석배율의 희석가스를 제조할 수 있다. 10배 희석용 오리피스 튜브의 홀 크기는 0.84 mm, 30배 희석용 오리피스 튜브의 홀 크기는 0.32 mm로 제작하였다. 제작된 냄새 평가를 위한 시료가스 희석용 오리피스 튜브에 의한 제조된 희석가스의 균질성은 2%RSD 내외로 우수한 재현성을 확인하였다. 또한, 기존 주사기를 이용하는 공기희석관능법에 의해 제조된 희석가스 농도와 비교하여 90% 이상의 상관성을 보이고 있었다. 진공펌프의 유량 변화에 따른 희석가스의 농도변화가 없이 간단히 진공흡인상자의 전단에 설치하여 활용할 수 있어 향후 다양한 현장 적용 평가 및 공기희석관능법과의 비교 연구를 통하여 현장에서의 복합악취 등의 평가에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
