Abstract

A method for removing a halogen fluoride in a mixed gas by reacting the mixed gas containing a halogen fluoride including bromine or iodine with a removing agent, wherein the removing agent is a chloride, bromide or iodide of potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium and barium. Also disclosed is a quantitative analysis method as well as a quantitative analyzer for a gas component contained in a hydrogen fluoride mixed gas, the method characterized by reacting a mixed gas containing a halogen fluoride and another gas component with a removing agent, thereby removing the halogen fluoride in the mixed gas, further removing produced by-products, and quantitatively analyzing a residual gas by a gas chromatograph.

Claims (9)

1. A method for removing a halogen fluoride in a mixed gas, characterized by reacting a mixed gas containing the halogen fluoride including bromine or iodine and another gas component with a removing agent which is a chloride, bromide or iodide of an element selected from the group consisting of potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium or barium.

2. The method for removing a halogen fluoride according to claim 1 , wherein a reaction temperature with the removing agent is 10° C. or higher and lower than 300° C.

3. The method for removing a halogen fluoride according to claim 1 , wherein the halogen fluoride is at least one selected from BrF, BrF 3 , BrF 5 , IF 3 , IF 5 and IF 7 .

4. The method for removing a halogen fluoride according to claim 1 , wherein the removing agent is a chloride of an element selected from the group consisting of potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium and barium, and a reaction temperature of the mixed gas and the chloride is 10° C. or higher and lower than 100° C.

5. The method for removing a halogen fluoride according to claim 1 , wherein the removing agent is a bromide or iodide of an element selected from the group consisting of potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium and barium and a reaction temperature of the mixed gas and the bromide or iodide is 100° C. or higher and lower than 300° C.

6. The method for removing a halogen fluoride according to claim 1 , wherein another gas component contains at least one selected from oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, helium, argon, tetrafluoromethane, silicon tetrafluoride, sulfur hexafluoride, tungsten hexafluoride and chromium pentafluoride.

7. The method for removing a halogen fluoride according to claim 1 , wherein a reaction product is caused to contact with at least one adsorbing agent selected from silica gels, molecular sieves, activated carbon, iron particles, copper particles and zinc particles, or an alkali aqueous solution, thereby removing reaction by-products.

8. A quantitative analysis method for a gas component contained in a halogen fluoride mixed gas, characterized by reacting a mixed gas containing a halogen fluoride including bromine or iodine and another gas component with a removing agent, thereby removing the halogen fluoride in the mixed gas, further removing produced by-products and quantitatively analyzing a residual gas by a gas chromatograph,

wherein the removing agent is a chloride, bromide or iodide of an element selected from the group consisting of potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium and barium.
