37、s . 4-20 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The objective of this study is to identifj practical alternative methods for routine monitoring of oil and grease in produced waters. The traditional monitoring methods, EPA Methods 41 3.1 and 41 3.2, rely on Freon 1 13 extraction of oil and grease. Owing to the phase-out

38、of Freon 1 13 use mandated by the Montreal Protocol and 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments, these methods can no longer be considered viable and hence a new method must be sought. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is soon to promulgate a new method for oil and grease, EPA Method 166

39、4. This method entails hexane extraction of the sample, followed by separation of the oil and grease from the hexane by evaporation, and weighing of the oil and grease remaining behind. Although this method will be required for compliance monitoring, it is generally unsuitable for routine monitoring

40、 on offshore platforms. The method is not simple to conduct, requires access to fume hoods and other equipment, and requires a quiescent and physically stable environment for weighing the samples. Since Method 1664 is considered impractical for routine offshore monitoring of produced water oil and g

41、rease, an alternative method must be sought for routine monitoring and verification of compliance. Offshore operators charged with this important compliance verification task must have an analytical method that is reliable and relatively easy to conduct, while at the same time consistently provides

42、analytical results that can be accurately correlated to EPAs compliance method, Method 1664. The American Petroleum Institutes (APIs) Produced Water Oil and Grease Workgroup (Workgroup) initiated this study to identifj and evaluate promising practical alternatives. The study was conducted in three p

43、hases. In the first phase of this study, EPA Methods 4 13.1 and 1664 were compared using five sets of replicate produced water samples from production operations in Louisiana and California. The results by the two methods appeared to be weakly related; however, because of high variability between re

44、plicates, a statistically defensible relationship between the results of the two methods could not be established. ES- 1 STD-APIIPETRO PUBL 4bq-ENGL 1999 W 0732290 ObL85L9 22T = In the second phase of the study, field-proven alternative methods and instruments that might be successfully used for rou

45、tine offshore produced water monitoring were identified. Viable methods and associated instruments must: Give a significant response to oil and grease; Give a linear response to oil and grease over the concentration range of interest; Measure oil and grease with acceptable precision; Provide analyti

46、cal results which can be correlated to results by the official EPA method using hexane extraction, EPA Method 1664; Be easy to calibrate and operate on offshore platforms; Provide consistent performance; and 0 Be rugged, durable, and require infrequent repair and adjustment. In consideration of thes

47、e criteria, three methods were recommended: Infrared absorption (IR-ABS) method in which the sample extract is deposited on a sapphire window, infrared radiation is passed through the sample, and transmitted radiation is measured and correlated to the oil and grease content. Infrared absorption (IR-

48、HATR) method in which the sample extract is deposited on a sapphire plate or zinc sulfide surface, infrared radiation is passed through the sample, and reflected radiation is measured and correlated to the oil and grease content. Ultraviolet fluorescence (UV) method in which ultraviolet radiation fr

49、om the sample or sample extract is measured and correlated to the oil and grease content. In the third phase of the study, the performance of these methods was evaluated in the laboratory, using two UV fluorescence instruments and two modifications of a single IR instrument. All instruments and methods were found capable of measuring oil and grease in produced water. In evaluating the performance of these methods and instruments, the following observations were made: 0 Linear Response - All instruments provided a linear response to oil and grease concentration ove
