Refinery gas is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons and non-combustible gases (e.g., carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, helium). It is obtained as part of the refining and conversion of crude oil. This key comparison aims to evaluate the measurement capabilities for these types of mixtures. The results of the key comparison indicate that the analysis of a refinery-type gas mixture is for some laboratories a challenge. Overall, four laboratories (VSL, NIM, NPL and VNIIM) have satisfactory results. The results of some participants highlight some non-trivial issues, such as appropriate separation between saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons, and issues with the measurement of nitrogen, hydrogen and helium.

The physical plasma parameters, temperature and electron number density, are studied in the RF-IC (RF inductively coupled) discharge at a reduced pressure of 3 Torr in mixtures of MoF6 with Ar, H2 and CH4. The emission spectra of mixtures are investigated. It is shown that in the presence of argon, the concentration of free electrons in plasma and dissociation rate of MoF6 increase. A main role of molecular hydrogen is the generation of atomic hydrogen that binds atomic fuorine and leads to the formation of gaseous and solid products. Exhaust gas mixtures exiting the reactor are analyzed by mass spectrometry. It is shown that for all cases, the conversion of MoF6 into reaction products is close to 100%.
A thermodynamic analysis of the equilibrium composition of MoF6 systems with Ar, H2 and CH4 was carried out and the obtained results are in good agreement with experimentally observed composition of the solid and gas phases. Analysis of solid deposits from mixture MoF6/H2/Ar revealed the presence of molybdenum powder and large amount of amorphous MoFx. The deposit obtained from mixtures with methane, MoF6/H2/Ar/CH4, contained crystalline molybdenum carbide, Mo3C2.
The generation of ozone and nitrogen oxides by laser-induced dielectric breakdown (LIDB) in mixtures of air with noble gases Ar, He, Kr, and Xe is investigated using OES and IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and absorption spectrophotometry. It is shown that the formation of NO and NO2 noticeably depends on the type of inert gas; the more complex electronic configuration and the lower ionization potential of the inert gas led to increased production of NO and NO2. The formation of ozone occurs mainly due to the photolytic reaction outside the gas discharge zone. Equilibrium thermodynamic analysis showed that the formation of NO in mixtures of air with inert gases does not depend on the choice of an inert gas, while the equilibrium concentration of the NO+ ion decreases with increasing complexity of the electronic configuration of an inert gas.
Probe diagnostics is used to determine the electron temperature and electron number density in a low pressure inductively coupled plasma (ICP) ignited in the mixture of SiF4, Ar and H2. Emission spectra of mixtures with different stoichiometry of components are investigated and the electron density distribution function (EDDF) is estimated. The optimal conditions for high conversion of SiF4 into Si are found by studying the dependence of the yield of silicon upon the ratio of reagents. The maximum achieved yield of silicon is 85% under the optimal conditions. Based on the analysis of IR and MS spectra of exhaust gases, 5% of initial SiF4 converts into volatile fluorosilanes. A rate of production of Si is 0.9 g/h at the energy consumption 0.56 kWh /g.
