Resumo

This study describes the use of microchip electrophoresis coupled to contactless conductivity detection for the determination of inorganic and organic anions for food and petroleomics application. Also, describes the use of capillary electrophoresis coupled to mass spectrometry for petroleomic application. Organic acids are responsible for several wines characteristics, such as aroma, flavor, color and stability. Their analysis are important for monitoring fermentation process and the quality of wines. 12 anions were detected and separated within 100 s, using a buffer composed of 30 mmol L-1 OF 2-(N-Morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid, 15 mmol L-1 of histidine and 0.05 mmol L-1 of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (pH 5.8). 18 wine samples were analyzed and it was possible to detect and quantify sulfate, phosphate, tartrate, maleate, succinate, acetate and lactate. A multivariate approach was used to investigate the similarities among anionic profile of the wines, and it was possible to discriminate samples mainly by grape varieties, production region and winemaking process. Naphthenic acids are carboxylic acids naturally occurring in crude oil with one or more ring structures. They are present in produced water, which is the water obtained with petroleum during its prospection and are responsible for corrosion, naphthenates deposition, and harmful to the environment when disposed of without treatment. The acids benzoic, 1-naphthoic and 9-anthracenecarboxylic were separated and detected using a microsystem electrophoresis coupled to contactless conductivity detection. The analysis was performed within 140 s using a buffer composed of an equimolar mixture of 10 mmol L-1 of sodium carbonate and bicarbonate (pH 10.2). 5 samples of produced water were analyzed and it was possible to detect and quantify 9-anthracenecarboxylic acid, demonstrating to be an efficient tool for analysis of complex samples matrices for petroleum applications. In this way, electrophoresis microchip proves to be a simple and portable analytical platform for field analysis, proving to be promising for wine quality control and for monitoring the presence of naphthenic acids in produced water samples. A capillary electrophoresis system coupled to a mass spectrometer was also used to analyze naphthenic acids. It was possible to detect cyclopentanecarboxylic acid, benzoic acid, cyclohexanebutyric acid, 1-naphthoic acid, decanoic acid, 3,5-dimethyladamantane-1-carboxylic acid, 9-anthracenecarboxylic acid, pentadecanoic acid and 2-methyl-octadecanoic acid within 13 min using a buffer composed of 40 mmol L-1 of ammonium hydroxide, 32 mmol L-1 of acetic acid and 20% isopropanol (pH 8.6). Produced water samples were analyzed and it was possible to identify and quantify cyclopentanecarboxylic, benzoic, cyclohexanebutyric and decanoic acids. In this way, the proposed method demonstrated to be efficient to detect naphthenic acids analysis in complex samples of produced water using capillary electrophoresis coupled with mass spectrometry. The next steps of this study are the evaluation of other acids in produced water samples for quantification of total acids.
