14、 the forms of aluminum recovered in the acid digestionprocedure specified in this test method.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Aluminum is determined by direct atomic absorptionwith only the addition of an ionization suppressor and sensi-tivity enhancer (optional).5. Significance and Use5.1 Although the

15、re is little information available concerningthe toxicological significance of aluminum in man, the Ameri-can Water Works Association has established a water qualityguideline or goal of a maximum of 0.05 mg/L. Under theNational Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES),some permits may set alum

16、inum discharge limits. Someevidence does exist to indicate that low levels (5 mg/L) willinterfere with activated sludge processes. For the above rea-sons monitoring of aluminum may be desirable.5.2 Aluminum is monitored in boiler make-up water, wherealum has been used, to determine whether aluminum

17、is presentafter pretreatment. Residual aluminum may consume ionexchange capacity or consume boiler water treatment chemi-cals added to stoichiometrically chelate hardness ions (that is,calcium and magnesium) in boiler feed water.5.3 Aluminum is monitored in cooling water make-up, sinceits presence m

18、ay result in deactivation of anionic substances inscale or corrosion inhibitor treatment chemicals, or both.Deactivation may result in decreased performance of inhibi-tors.6. Interferences6.1 Aluminum ionizes slightly in the nitrous oxide-acetylene flame, but the addition of sodium chloride describe

19、din this test method suppresses this interference. By thistechnique, a maximum concentration of 9000 mg/L sodium,9000 mg/L potassium, 4000 mg/L calcium, 4000 mg/L mag-nesium, 9000 mg/L sulfate, 9000 mg/L chloride, 9000 mg/Lnitrate, and 9000 mg/L iron may be tolerated.7.

Reagents and Materials8.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless othe

22、rwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Societywhere such specifications are available.3Other grades may beused, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high pur

23、ity to permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.8.2 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, referencesto water shall be understood to mean reagent water conformingto Specification D1193, Type I. Other reagent water types maybe used, provided it is first ascertained that t

24、he water is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening thebias and precision of the determination. Type II water wasspecified at the time of round-robin testing of this test method.8.3 Aluminum Solution, Standard (1 mL = 0.1 mg Al)Dissolve 1.758 g of aluminum potassium sulfate(Al

25、K(SO4)212H2O) in water. Add 1 mL of nitric acid anddilute to 1 L. A purchased stock solution of appropriate purityis also acceptable.8.4 Bis-(2-Ethoxyethyl) Ether.NOTE 2Warning: Avoid inhalation. Perform all manipulation in awell-ventilated hood. This ether can form dangerous peroxides and shouldbe

26、inspected regularly for their presence.8.5 Hydrochloric Acid (sp gr 1.19)Concentrated hydro-chloric acid (HCl).8.6 Nitric Acid (sp gr 1.42)Concentrated nitric acid(HNO3).8.7 Sodium Chloride Solution (25.4 g/L)Dissolve 25.4 gof sodium chloride (NaCl) in water and dilute to 1 L.8.8 Oxidant:8.8.1 Air,

27、which has been suitably dried and filtered, is usedto support combustion before switching to nitrous oxide.8.8.2 Nitrous Oxide is the required oxidant.8.9 Fuel:Standard commercially available acetylene is the requiredfuel. The cylinder should be replaced at a gage pressure of 517kPa (75 psi) to mini

28、mize the carry-over of acetone. Since“purified” grades contain a solvent that softens poly(vinylchloride) tubing, its use constitutes a safety hazard and is notrecommended.9. Sampling9.1 Collect samples in accordance with Practices D1066 orD3370, as applicable. For dissolved aluminum, filter thesamp

29、les at the time of collection through a 0.45-m filter.Acidify the filtrate to pH 2 or less with nitric acid. For totalrecoverable aluminum, acidify the unfiltered sample to pH 2 orless at the time of collection. The holding time for samples maybe calculated in accordance with Practice D4841.9.2 Soak

30、 all glassware in hot HCl (1 + 1) for 2 h. Drain andrinse at least five times with water. Drain and flush with methylalcohol, ethyl alcohol, or isopropyl alcohol.3Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Society Specifications, AmericanChemical Society, Washington, DC.

32、sware in hot HCl (1 + 1) for 2 h. Drain andrinse at least five times with water. Drain and flush with methylalcohol, ethyl alcohol, or isopropyl alcohol.11. Calibration and Standardization11.1 Prepare aluminum standards in the range from 0.0 to5.0 mg/L by dilution of the aluminum standard solution (

33、see8.3) with water.11.2 Add 1.0 mL of NaCl solution to 10.0 mL of standardand mix thoroughly. If very low concentrations of aluminumare anticipated in the samples, 1 mL of bis-(2ethoxyethyl)ether may be added to the blank and each standard, which willact as a sensitivity enhancer. If this sensitivit

34、y enhancer is used,it must also be added to each sample (12.6).11.3 Measure the absorbance of the standards and constructan analytical curve by plotting the absorbance of the standardsversus the concentration of aluminum. Alternatively, calibratethe spectrophotometer and read directly in concentrati

35、on.12. Procedure12.1 If dissolved aluminum is to be determined proceed to12.6.12.2 Measure a volume of well-mixed acidified samplecontaining less than 0.5 mg of aluminum (100 mL maximum)into a 125-mL beaker.12.3 Add 0.5 mL of HNO3and 5 mL of HCl.12.4 Heat the samples on a hot plate in a well-ventila

36、tedhood until the volume has been reduced to 10 to 15 mL,making certain the samples do not boil.NOTE 3For brines and samples with high levels of suspended matter,the amount of reduction in volume is left to the discretion of the analyst.12.5 Cool and, if necessary, filter the samples through afilter

37、 (fine-texture, acid-washed, ashless paper) into a 100-mLvolumetric flask. Wash the paper several times and bring thevolume to 100-mL.12.6 To a 10-mL aliquot of sample add 1.0 mL of NaCl andmix thoroughly. If 1 mL of bis(2ethoxyethyl) ether wasadded to the blank and standards as a sensitivity enhanc

38、er(11.2), an equal amount must be added to each sample.12.7 Atomize each of the standards, samples, and blank anddetermine its absorbance or concentration. Atomize waterbetween samples.13.
