摘要
Biodiesel has emerged as an alternative to traditional fuels with the aim of reducing the impact on the environment. It is produced by the esterification of oleaginous seeds, animal fats, etc., with short-chain alcohols in an alkaline solution, which is one of the most commonly used methods. This increases the oxygen content (from the fatty acids) and promotes the fuel to burn faster and more efficiently. The accurate quantification of biodiesel is of paramount importance to the fuel market due to the possibility of adulteration, which can result in economic losses, engine performance issues and environmental concerns related to corrosion. In response to achieving this goal, in this work, synergy interval partial least squares (siPLS) algorithms in combination with Raman spectroscopy are used for the quantification of the biodiesel content. Different pretreatment methods are discussed to eliminate a large amount of redundant information of the original spectrum. The siPLS technique for extracting feature variables is then used to optimize the input variables after pretreatment, in order to enhance the predictive performance of the calibration model. Finally, the D1-MSC-siPLS calibration model is constructed based on the preprocessed spectra, the selected input variables and the optimized model parameters. Compared with the feature variable selection methods of interval partial least squares (iPLS) and backward interval partial least squares (biPLS), results elucidate that the D1-MSC-siPLS calibration model is superior to the D1-MSC-biPLS and the D1-MSC-iPLS in the quantitative analysis of adulterated biodiesel. The D1-MSC-siPLS calibration model demonstrates better predictive performance compared to the full spectrum PLS model, with the optimal determination coefficient of prediction (R2P) being 0.9899; the mean relative error of prediction (MREP) decreased from 9.51% to 6.31% and the root--mean-squared error of prediction (RMSEP) decreased from 0.1912% (v/v) to 0.1367% (v/v), respectively. The above results indicate that Raman spectroscopy combined with the D1-MSC-siPLS calibration model is a feasible method for the quantitative analysis of biodiesel in adulterated hybrid fuels.
