The Major Constituents of Natural Gas

The Major Constituents of Natural Gas

The major constituent of natural gas is methane however, other gaseous hydrocarbons are also present. One way to identify other components is to dissolve some natural gas in a solvent and examine the 1H NMR spectrum. The spectrum in the figure below was acquired on a sample prepared by bubbling natural gas through benzene-d6 for several minutes. The spectrum clearly shows the presence of methane, ethane, propane and water.

The spectrum also indicated other impurities at much lower levels (not shown in the figure).

(in time domain)". This is all you need to know, I think. The picture should help, as always. If you are reading this blog, it means that you have something like a computer. Even the iPhone is a computer (you can run programs on it) and can display my blog. I suspect, however, that you have a better computer, like I do. You can use your computer to run simulations and more: you can ask it to...	nmrlearner	News from NMR blogs	0	08-21-2010 06:29 PM
