Summary of Practice4.1 The sample is mixed with sodium sulfate or magnesiumsulfate, placed in an extraction thimble, and extracted using anappropriate solvent in a Soxhlet extractor for a 15 to 20-hperiod. For additional information, see Test Method D 4281.The time req

16、uired may be longer or shorter than the statedperiod, provided the extraction time selected has been demon-strated appropriate for the compounds and matrix of interest.4.2 The solvent extract may be further processed usingsample clean-up techniques and may be analyzed using instru-mental methods for

17、 specific nonvolatile or semivolatile organiccompounds. This practice does not include sample extractclean-up methods.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice provides a general procedure for thesolvent extraction of organics from soils, sediments, sludges,and fine-grained solid wastes. It may be us

18、ed as the initial stepin the solvent extraction of organic constituents from wastematerials for the purpose of quantifying extractable organiccompounds. When the appropriate extraction solvent is used,the procedure can be applied to the determination of the totalsolvent extractable content (TSEC) of

19、 the sample. The extrac-tion of nonvolatile or semivolatile organic compounds from theabove solid waste should use solvents listed in Table 1 orSW846 Method 3540.5.2 The detection limit, linear concentration range, andsensitivity of the method for specific organic compoundanalysis will depend upon t

20、he method used for instrumentalanalysis and will also depend upon the sample clean-up andsolvent concentration methods used. Typical detection limitsthat can be achieved for GC or GC/MS are in the parts permillion and sub-parts per million range.5.2.1 The method detection limit can be adjusted by va

21、ryingthe volume of extract used and by additional sample clean-upprior to analysis.5.3 Soxhlet extraction has an advantage when analyzingsolid waste and soil/waste mixtures which form emulsions withmore rigorous solvent mixing extraction techniques.6. Interferences6.1 Solvents, reagents, glassware,

22、and other sample process-ing hardware may yield discrete artifacts or elevated baselineswhich cause misinterpretation of follow-up analyses. All ofthese materials must be demonstrated to be free of interferenceunder the conditions of the follow-up analysis. Specific selec-tion of reagents or the pur

24、ne, and finallywith pesticide quality solvent (that is, the solvent used forextraction). If the type and size of glassware permits, it may becleaned by heating in a muffle furnace at 400C for 15 to 30min. Alternatively, glassware may be oven dried at 103C forTABLE 1 Selected Applications of Soxhlet

33、.1.2 Plastics, except PTFE-fluorocarbon, can be a source ofserious interference, especially when specific organic constitu-ents are of analytical interest. Their use must be avoided.Samples should be collected in glass bottles with PTFE-fluorocarbon-lined caps. Alternatively, caps may be lined withp

34、recleaned aluminum foil when the pH of the sample is nearneutral and the salt content of the sample is low. To minimizethe possibility of contamination of containers after cleaning,these items should be cleaned immediately prior to use andcapped. A glassware rinse should be performed with theextract

35、ion solvent immediately prior to use.6.2 A blank Soxhlet extraction and analysis should beperformed in order to determine the solvent, drying agent, andapparatus background. If necessary, the glass (or paper)thimble and glass wool should be leached with solvent prior touse in order to minimize conta

36、mination. Method blanks shouldbe less than 20 % of the concentration of the minimum neededreportable concentration. A method blank(s) must be reportedwith method data.6.3 A relatively high TSEC background (20 % of theminimum TSEC of interest) can result from solubility ofsodium sulfate or other dryi

37、ng agent in the extraction solvent.This will preclude the application of the method for TSECdeterminations.6.4 Impurities in the extracting solvent can be a source ofinterference or TSEC background. Solvent blanks should beanalyzed with each new bottle of solvent. Whenever a highTSEC background, or

38、interfering compounds, are traced to thesolvent, a new source of solvent should be obtained. Alterna-tively, impurities can often be removed by distillation in glass.6.5 If organic compound interferences are found in theanhydrous sodium sulfate or magnesium sulfate, the dryingagent may be rinsed wit

39、h pure extraction solvent, or alterna-tively, Soxhlet extracted, followed by oven drying.6.6 Inorganic constituents extractable from the waste by theextraction solvent will result in a positive interference in thedetermination of TSEC. This potential for interference must bedetermined by the analyst

40、 on a case-by-case basis.6.7 When specific organic compound analysis is of interest,matrix interferences may be caused by compounds that arecoextracted from the sample (but are not of interest). Theextent of such matrix interferences will vary considerablydepending on the sample and the specific ins

41、trumental analysismethod used. Matrix interferences may be reduced by ajudicious choice of extracting solvent, or alternatively, by usinga clean-up technique on the extract following Soxhlet extrac-tion.7. Selection of the Extraction Solvent7.1 The selection of solvent for extraction will depend upo

42、nmany factors, including the following (see Table 1 for selectedapplications):7.1.1 Boiling point of the solvent.7.1.2 Boiling point of the compounds or class of compoundsof interest.7.1.3 Tendency of the solvent and matrix to form emulsions.7.1.4 Solvent strength (that is, polarity, solubility of c

43、om-pounds of interest).7.1.5 Safety of solvent use (that is, toxicity, flammability).7.1.6 Purity of solvent.7.1.7 Solvent compatibility with analytical instrumentation.7.2 The analyst should demonstrate a recovery using aspiking procedure in the matrix of interest before using thisprocedure.7.3 Bec

44、ause the extraction is carried out at temperaturesapproaching the boiling point of the solvent for the entireextraction period, the analyst must ensure that heat-labile andmore volatile solutes that may be of interest are stable andrecoverable by the method. Low-boiling fractions can also belost in

45、the solvent evaporation steps where Kuderna-Danishsolvent concentration is performed or where TSEC is deter-mined gravimetrically after solvent evaporation.7.4 The rate and extraction efficiency of the Soxhlet extrac-tion process are not only a function of the solubility of theconstituents of intere

46、st in solvent versus the matrix, but are alsorelated to the dissolution process. This depends upon the easeof penetration of the solvent into the solid sample matrix. Fineparticles are extracted more easily than large particles becauseof the increased surface area they provide. Therefore theparticle

47、 nature of the sample must be evaluated and docu-mented.7.5 In many cases where the extraction efficiency of theconstituent of interest during the extraction period is less than100 %, the efficiency of the solvent extraction process is highlydependent upon the control of conditions during the Soxhle

48、textraction process. Extraction efficiency will depend upon thecombined effect of the specific solvent used, the temperature atwhich extraction occurs, the cycle time for the Soxhlet appa-ratus, and the total extraction time. Therefore the rate andduration of extraction must be closely controlled.8.
