Summary of Test Methods4.1 Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is absorbed by aspirating a mea-sured air sample through a tetrachloromercurate (TCM) solu-tion, resulting in the formation of a dichlor

16、osulfonatomercuratecomplex (2,3). Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt(EDTA) is added to this solution to complex heavy metals thatinterfere with this method (4). Dichlorosulfonatomercurate,once formed, is stable to strong oxidants (for example, ozoneand oxides of nitrogen) (2). After the a

17、bsorption is completed,any ozone in the solution is allowed to decay (5). The liquid istreated first with a solution of sulfamic acid to destroy thenitrite anion formed from the absorption of oxides of nitrogenpresent in the atmosphere (6). It is treated next with solutionsof formaldehyde and specia

18、lly purified acid-bleached pararo-saniline containing phosphoric acid (H3PO4) to control pH.Pararosaniline, formaldehyde, and the bisulfite anion react toform the intensely colored pararosaniline methyl sulfonic acidwhich behaves as a two-color pH indicator (2). The pH of thefinal solution is adjust

19、ed to the desired value by the addition ofprescribed amounts of 3 N H3PO4to the pararosaniline reagent(5).5. Significance and Use5.1 Sulfur dioxide is a major air pollutant, commonlyformed by the combustion of sulfur-bearing fuels. The Envi-ronmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set primary andsecond

20、ary air quality standards (7) that are designed to protectthe public health and welfare.5.2 The Occupational Safety and Health Administration(OSHA) has promulgated exposure limits for sulfur dioxide inworkplace atmospheres (8).5.3 These methods have been found satisfactory for mea-suring sulfur diox

21、ide in ambient and workplace atmospheresover the ranges pertinent in 5.1 and 5.2.5.4 Method A has been designed to correspond to theEPA-Designated Reference Method (7) for the determinationof sulfur dioxide.6. Interferences6.1 The interferences of oxides of nitrogen are eliminatedby sulfamic acid (5

22、,6), of ozone by time delay (5), and of heavymetals by EDTA and phosphoric acid (4,5). At least 60 gofFe(III), 10 g of Mn(II), and 10 g of Cr(III), 10 g of Cu(II)and 22 g of V(V) in 10 mL of absorbing reagent can betolerated in the procedure. No significant interference wasfound with 2.3 gofNH3(9).7

23、. Apparatus7.1 For Sampling:7.1.1 Absorber, ShortTerm SamplingAn all-glass midgetimpinger having a solution capacity of 30 mL and a stemclearance of 4 6 1 mm from the bottom of the vessel is usedfor sampling periods of 30 min and 1 h (or any periodconsiderably less than 24 h).7.1.2 Absorber, 24-h Sa

24、mplingA glass or polypropylenetube 32 mm in diameter and 164 mm long with a polypropy-lene two-port cap (rubber stoppers are unacceptable becausethe absorbing reagent can react with the stopper to yielderroneously high SO2concentrations, and cause high andvariable blank values). Insert a glass impin

25、ger stem, 6 mminside diameter and 158 mm long, into one port of the absorbercap. Taper the tip of the stem to a small diameter orifice (0.4 60.1 mm) such that a No. 79 jewelers drill bit will pass throughthe opening but a No. 78 drill bit will not. Clearance from thebottom of the absorber to the tip

26、 of the stem shall be 6 6 2 mm.Perform the orifice test before use to verify the orifice size.Permanently mark the 50 mLvolume level on the absorber. SeeFig. 1.7.1.3 Air Sample ProbeA sample probe meeting therequirements of Section 7 of 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix E,(TFE-fluorocarbon, polypropylene, or

27、 glass with a residencetime less than 20 sec), used to transport ambient air to thesampling train location. Design or orient the end of the probeto preclude the sampling of precipitation, large particles, etc.7.1.4 Moisture TrapGlass or polypropylene trap as shownin Fig. 1, placed between the absorb

Charcoal is preferred whencollecting long-term samples (1 h or more) if flow changes areroutinely encountered.7.1.5 Cap Se

29、alsSeal the absorber and moisture trap capssecurely to prevent leaks during use, by using heat-shrinkmaterial to prevent the caps coming loose during sampling,shipment, or storage.7.1.6 Filter, membrane, of 0.8 to 2.0 m porosity, with filterholder, to protect the flow controller from particles durin

This item is optional for short-termsampling.7.1.7 Pump, equipped with vacuum gauge, capable of main-taining a vacuum greater than 70 kPa (0.7 atm) at the specifiedflow rate across the flow control device.7.1.8 Flow Control and Measurement Devices:7.1.8.1 Flow Control DeviceA ca

31、librated rotameter andneedle valve combination capable of maintaining and measur-ing air flow to within 62 percent is suitable for short-termsampling but shall not be used for long-term sampling. Acritical orifice can be used for regulating flow rate for bothlong-term and short-term sampling. Use a

32、22-gage hypodermicneedle 25 mm long as a critical orifice (10) to yield a flow rateof approximately 1 L/min for a 30min sampling period. Whensampling for 1 h, use a 23-gage hypodermic needle 16 mm inlength to provide a flow rate of approximately 0.5 L/min.Provide a flow control for a 24h sample by a

33、 27gagehypodermic needle critical orifice that is 9.5 mm in length sothat the flow rate is in the range of 0.18 to 0.22 L/min.7.1.8.2 Flow Measurement Devicecalibrated as specifiedin 11.1.1, and used to measure sample flow rate at themonitoring site.7.1.9 ThermometerASTM Thermometer 33C, meetingthe

35、 6D 2914 01 (2007)210C. Maintain the temperature of the collected sample at 5 65C, as soon as possible following sampling and until analysis.Where an extended period of time may elapse before thecollected sample can be moved to the lower storage tempera-ture, use a collection temperature near the lo

36、wer limit of the 156 10C range to minimize losses during this period. Thermo-electric coolers specifically designed for this temperaturecontrol are available commercially and normally operate in therange of 5 to 15C. Small refrigerators can be modified toprovide the required temperature control; how

37、ever, insulate theinlet lines from the lower temperatures to prevent condensationwhen sampling under humid conditions.
