1、Designation: D4981 08 D4981 12Standard Test Method forScreening of Oxidizers in Waste1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4981; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in

2、 parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method is intended for use prior to preparation of waste samples for organic analysis. Waste samples that haveoxidizing compounds may

3、react with certain reagents in the laboratory (for example, organic solvents).1.2 This test method is applicable to the analysis of waste liquids, sludges, and solids.1.3 This test method can neither identify specific oxidizing compounds nor measure concentrations. Since no acid or base isadded in t

4、his test method, potential oxidizers that require the presence of acid or base will not be detected by this test method.1.4 It is recommended that, prior to this test, waste samples be screened for water compatibility; see Test Methods D5058.1.5 This test method is designed and intended as a prelimi

5、nary test to complement quantitative analytical techniques that maybe used to determine the presence of oxidizers in wastes. This test method offers the ability to screen waste for potentiallyhazardous reactions due to oxidizer content when the more sophisticated techniques are not available or the

6、total waste compositionis unknown.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the us

7、er of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method4.1 A small portion of the sample is placed onto a strip of potassium iodide (KI) starch paper. The blue color which is the resultof oxi

10、dizing the potassium iodide to iodine (I2) in the presence of starch, indicates a positive test for oxidizers.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is intended for use by those in waste management industries to avoid potentially harmful reactions due tooxidizing compounds in wastes.1 This test

15、terials that mask the KI starch paper, (for example, oils, syrups, etc.) prevent reaction with the test paper or visualdetection of a color change.6.2 Samples or slurries of samples that are already dark colored prior to applying a test portion to the KI starch paper can givefalse results.6.3 Oxidiz

16、ers such as ferric salts may not oxidize organics; however, they may show positive reactions with KI.6.4 Oxidizers that require the presence of acid or base will give a false negative result. To overcome this problem, run theoxidizer test at acid, base, and neutral pH conditions.7. Reagents and Mate

Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended that allreagents conform to specifications of the Committee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society where suchspecifications are available.3 Other grades may be u
