18、RO PUBL 4b35-ENGL L77b m 0732290 O5b29LB 115 m ABSTRACT A variety of improved field-based methods are available to perform on-site analyses of organic compounds in soil and groundwater samples. The appropriate use of these field analytical methods can increase spatial site information in less time a

19、nd with fewer assessment phases than conventional sampling methodologies using offsite laboratories. This report presents a compilation of the most widely used field analytical methods, including total organic vapor analyzers, field gas chromatograph, immunoassay, infrared analyzers, and dissolved o

20、xygedoxidation-reduction potential electrodes. Practical applications and limitations of each method are discussed and an objective-oriented Data Quality Classification scheme is presented to assist in selecting the appropriate method for the task. There is a chapter surveying other field analytical

21、 techniques not as widely used but showing promise for future application. This publication is the first of two documents, designed to fill the gaps that now appear to exist in the application of certain field technologies for the analysis of petroleum hydrocarbon contamination. The second report wi

22、ll address technology selection, QNQC protocols, and recommendations for training and recordkeeping.

Section therefore, use of the compilation document in combination with the manufacturers literature will provide the best basis for an overall evaluation of the effective use of a particular field analytical method. A brief summary of each method is p

27、resented which (1) describes the method; (2) identifies the appropriate application and limitations for evaluating hydrocarbon contaminantdconstituents of concern; and (3) specifies quality control checks that should be included in the field analysis quality assurance program. A general scheme is pr

28、esented in the compilation document for field analytical methods of different data quality. The quality of the data generated by a particular method is referred to as the data quality level (DQL). DQLs are based on data quality classifications for site investigations that were developed by the New J

29、ersey Department of Environmental Protection and were modified for use in this compilation document based on a review of method operation and reported use. ES-2 STD.API/PETRO PUBL Lib35-ENGL 177b 0732270 05b2725 355 TOTAL ORGANIC VAPOR (TOV) DETECTORS TOV detectors and headspace analysis are discuss

30、ed in Section 3. TOV headspace analysis is widely used to provide relatively low-cost screening of soil and groundwater for volatile hydrocarbons. The primary applications for which this method is best suited include: . Qualitative “hot spot“ or source area screening of volatile hydrocarbons in soil

31、; Selecting soil boring, soil vapor monitoring, and soil vapor extraction locations; and Identifying potential vapor pathways and infiltration in underground structures. TOV headspace analysis is less suited for screening of groundwater and less volatile contaminants found in heavier fuels such as d

32、iesel fuel and weathered gasoline. The total volatile organic concentrations measured are indicative of the total fraction of the vapor entering the detection instrument. The TOV concentrations are therefore general, qualitative measurements and TOV instruments are not suitable for analysis of speci

33、fic constituents or samples containing low (e.g., lo0 ppm), and open air environments with high background concentrations. Samples with high concentrations may need to be diluted and reanalyzed in order to bring concentrations into the calibration range of the instrument and to discriminate the indi

34、vidual peaks on a chromatogram. If many peaks are present, the separation of peaks may not be adequate to resolve specific constituents. In this case, integration of the total chromatogram can be used to determine total volatiles or contaminant indicators, depending on whether a headspace sample was

35、 taken (for volatiles only) or a solvent extraction was performed (for contaminant indicators). Field Gcs can discriminate and quantify specific constituents and generate a high level of data. Often, the regulatory agency overseeing an investigation requires the analysis and reporting of individual

36、constituents of concern to determine the potential risk of exposure. This is especially the case for benzene or BTEX constituents. By resolving specific constituents, the location of the source areas and delineation of the magnitude and extent of contamination in soil and groundwater can be evaluate

37、d. The approximate cost of analysis ranges from $50 to $70 per sample. Analytical time per sample is 10 to 40 minutes. IMMUNOASSAYS Section 5 discusses the application of Immunoassay test kits for on-site measurement of petroleum product releases. immunoassay field tests measure a target constituent

38、 or analyte using antibody- antigen reactions where an antibody is developed to have a high degree of selectivity and sensitivity to that target constituent. Immunoassay testing has been successfully used in the medical industry for years, and is currently being used as a field analytical method for

39、 hydrocarbons, pesticides, and PCBs. Contaminants are extracted from soil samples using a solvent (e.g., methanol); water samples are analyzed directly. The extract or water is placed in a reaction vessel (e.g., test tube) that contains the antibodies. Reagents which behave as tracers (e.g., enzyme

40、conjugates) are added in a series of steps with appropriate incubation periods. The target analyte “competes“ with an enzyme conjugate for a limited number of antibody binding sites. A substrate solution is then added and reacts with the enzyme conjugate to produce a color. The intensity of the colo

41、r is inversely proportional to the contaminant concentration of the target analyte in the sample. The absenceipresence or relative concentration is made by comparing the color developed from the unknown sample with a reference standard, or measured directly on a small portable colorimeter.

42、API/PETRO PUBL qb35-ENGL L77b m 0732290 05b2928 Obll m Depending on the biochemical design, a particular test kit will measure a specific constituent (e.g., benzene), a set of constituents (e.g., BTEX), or a general assay range (total petroleum hydrocarbons). Depending on the manufacturer, immunoass

43、ay test kits are designed for either semiquantitative or quantitative analyses. For semiquantitative analyses, an action level is set and the assay will indicate if the sample concentrations are above or below that level. Alternatively, multiple action levels can be set to place the sample in a disc

44、rete range (e.g., above 100 ppm but below loo0 ppm). For quantitative analyses, multipoint calibration curves are used that are usually internal to the colorimetric detector. The selection of the most appropriate kit is related to (1) the design of the kit (Le., action level, concentration range, or

45、 specific concentration); (2) what parameter needs to be measured; and (3) the objective of the assessment. Immunoassay test kits can provide high quality data that can be used to meet a wide range of assessment objectives. The primary applications for which immunoassays are best suited include: Det

46、ection of a wide range of fuels; BTEXhenzene or Ti” in soil; and Source aredzone of contamination mapping in soil. Immunoassay test kits are least suited for BTEX or TPH analysis at low concentrations (e.g., 70“C); Detection of relatively higher hydrocarbon concentrations; and Source aredzone of con

47、tamination mapping in soil. Portable IR detectors are least suited for evaluating “fresh“ unweathered volatile gasoline and hydrocarbons in clay or organic-rich soil. Although the method is applicable to the measurement of light fuels, approximately half of any gasoline present may be lost during th

48、e extraction process. The extraction process itself is potentially a significant limitation for using this method. The solvent currently being used for extraction (fluorocarbon-1 13) will likely be phased out in the near future. Other solvents are being examined; however, there is no equivalent solv

49、ent for this method at this time, and continued use of this method will likely require that a new solvent be found. In addition, volatile constituents may be lost by evaporation during the extraction process. No simple method exists for directly comparing the portable IR results for different fuel types which have different volatile constituent compositions. The estimated cost of analysis ranges from $5 to $31 per sample and the estimated analytical time per sample varies from 5 to 20 minutes. DISSOLVED OXYGEN AND OXIDATION POTENTIAL DETECTORS Secti
