Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the

3、 dis-solved gases methane, ethane, ethylene, and propane indrinking, waste, and ground waters, including domestic wellswhether naturally occurring or resulting from commercialactivities, or both. This test method has an analytical rangefrom 10 g/L to 11 000 g/L for methane, and 10 g/L to 5000g/L for

4、 ethane, ethylene, and propane. If a sample has adissolved gas concentration above the calibration range, thesample would require dilution. Other analytical ranges may beused as long as the instrument calibration encompasses thedesired range and demonstrates adequate linearity.1.2 This test method i

Samples collected under highpressures, that is, above ambient pressure, may not be accu-rately analyzed using this method.1.3 This test method is applicable to a variety of dissolvedgases; however, for the present standard, only methane

In order to validate fora gas not listed in this method, the analyst would need toestablish the saturation concentration of the new gas, andestablish a valid curve, method detection limits, and demon-stration of capability following the procedures outli

No other units of measurement are

8、 included inthis standard.1.6 A single laboratory study was done in order to establishprecision and bias for the surrogate (see Section 16).1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

Aportion of the headspace is then injected onto the head of a gaschromatographic (GC) column for separation and analysis.Measurement is accomplished using a flame ionization detector(FID

39、).5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method covers the determination of the dis-solved gases methane, ethane, ethylene, and propane indrinking, waste, and ground waters, including domestic wells;whether naturally occurring or resulting from commercialactivities, dissolved gases can be hazardous bo

40、th to theenvironment and humans. Due to increased scrutiny of dis-solved gases, developing a valid method for the testing ofdissolved gases in water has become more imperative. Staticheadspace sampling is generally applicable for sampling thesecompounds. However, as these compounds are extremelyvola

41、tile, a closed sampling system is recommended. This testmethod can be used for quantitatively determining dissolvedgases in ground, waste, and drinking waters.5.2 This test method is suitable for analysis of domesticdrinking water samples from residential and commercial watersupply wells prior to oi

42、l and gas exploration activities to forma baseline for monitoring potential impacts during exploration;development, including hydraulic fracturing; operation; clo-sure; and reclamation of nearby oil and gas production andinjection wells.6. Interferences6.1 Impurities in the air, the field sample via

43、ls, vial septa,the preservatives, or improper sealing during transport cancause contamination. Field reagent blanks, recommended, andmethod blanks, required, shall be used to verify propersampling and handling procedures.6.2 Contamination or carryover can occur whenever ahighly concentrated sample i

44、s run. A blank shall be run after ahighly concentrated sample to ensure system cleanliness.6.2.1 A carryover study should be done in order to deter-mine the nominal level of analytes that will be prone to carryover into subsequent samples. From this study, the laboratoryshall be required to run blan

45、ks after samples containinganalytes above the established levels. Otherwise, if a sample isrun directly after a high level sample, reference the laboratorycarryover study, and displays an analyte of interest, the samplewould need to be run again in order to ensure the accuracy ofthe results.6.3 The

46、FID is a nonselective detector. If matrix interferencecaused by sample contamination or compound co-elutionoccurs, an experienced analyst is required for proper interpre-tation.6.4 In order to inhibit analyte loss, samples should be storedin 40-ml vials with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-lined chlo

47、-robutyl septa with no headspace, and placed on ice within 15minutes of collection. Samples should be transported and keptcooled to approximately 0 to 6C but not frozen. If any visibleheadspace exists in a sample vial, it is to be noted in the resultsreport as analyte loss can exist with sample head

48、space.Samples may be preserved with sulfuric acid in order to extendthe expiration date to two weeks from the sampling date.7.
