Significance and Use5.1 The test method concerns the sieving of coke intodesignated size fractions for the purpose of characterizing thematerial as to its particle size distribution. It requires the use ofstandard

12、 sieves, standard sampling methods, standard samplepreparation methods, and a minimum initial sample mass basedon lot topsize. Suggestions are given for industry typical sievestacks for both green and calcined petroleum coke.5.2 Particle size distribution is significant in that manyphysical characte

Minor separations of the sieve clothfrom the frame such as one broken sieve wire, and slightdistortions of sieve wires, can cause serious inaccuracies in thefinal results of a sieve analysi

18、s.6.2 Blinding of or a reduction in the number of openings ina sieve due to a collection of particles caught in the mesh canintroduce errors.6.3 Flooding or overloading of any sieve with particlesreduces the probability of any given particle encountering anopening in the sieve.7. Apparatus7.1 Sieves

19、:7.1.1 Sieves will be used in a descending size openingsequence, larger mesh openings above smaller.7.1.1.1 Typical sets of sieves to be used are listed in Table1.NOTE 2Sets of sieves are often modified. Typically, specifications onsets of sieves are negotiated between the buyer and the seller. The

20、actualsequence used by the operator performing the analysis can vary. Forexample, intermediate sieves can be chosen to avoid sieve flooding and tomake the sieving operation more efficient. Table 1 on nominal dimensionsin Specification E11 is to be used as a guide.7.1.2 A topsize sieve shall be used.

21、7.1.3 Wire sieve cloth and frames used will conform toSpecification E11.7.1.4 Wire composition and types of frames must be sizedproperly for potential sieving operations. Stainless steel sievecloth is very resistant to distortion and preferred over softermetals.7.1.5 Collecting pans and sieve covers

22、 designed to fit thesieves are required.7.1.6 Check Specification E11 for more details on standardsieves, service checks, and calibration.7.2 Sieve Shaker:7.2.1 Use a batch type sieve shaker.37.2.2 For sieving small quantities of coke or very fine coke(below 70 mesh), use a laboratory type sieving m

23、achine.48. Sample Preparation8.1 A representative gross sample of the coke lot must becollected using appropriate procedures from Practice D346,Test Methods D2234/D2234M, or Practice D4057.(WarningThe gross sample must not be crushed or reducedin topsize during the gross sample collection process or

24、 duringsubsequent divisions of the sample.)8.2 The gross sample is divided into a smaller bulk samplefollowing guidelines in Test Methods D2234/D2234M. Thebulk sample must remain representative including no loss intopsize. Keeping in mind the initial sample mass requirements(see Table 2), the bulk s

25、ample must be at least twice the largestminimum mass that you estimate will be required for theanalysis.8.3 Upon delivery of the bulk sample to the laboratory, thesample shall be stored in a safe, dry location. Prevent any sizedegradation, loss of mass, or contamination of the sample untilneeded for

26、 the sieve analysis.8.4 Immediately prior to the sieve analysis, examine thebulk sample determining whether it is dry and free flowing. Ifnot, use the air drying apparatus and drying procedure ofPractice D2013.8.5 Determine the initial minimum test sample mass re-quired for the analysis from Table 2

Procedure9.1 Accurately weigh the minimum test sample mass (see8.6) before sieving with a precision equal to

33、 or better than0.5 % of the fraction being weighed. This mass is Mi(initialtest sample mass).9.2 Start with the sieve having the largest required opening.9.3 All sieving is to be done using a batch type sieve shaker.NOTE 3It is recommended that coke 50 mm in diameter and larger behand sieved by the

34、methods outlined in Test Method D4749 rather thanattempting the use of a mechanical sieving device.9.4 Clean sieves prior to each use following the methodrecommended by the sieve manufacturer. If this information isunavailable, thoroughly brush the sieves using an appropriatebristle or soft metal br

35、ush. Do not distort or damage sievesduring this process.9.5 Limit the portions of coke used for each sieving so thatall coke particles will be in direct contact with the mesh at thecompletion of sieving on each successive sieve.9.5.1 To determine the length of sieving time, refer to Table3 for an es

36、timated starting point. Use a sample divider asdescribed in Practice D2013 to form four subsamples from agross sample of a coke similar to that being tested. Sieve oneof these for the time given as an appropriate starting point, asecond for starting point plus 1 min, a third for starting pointplus 2

37、 min, and a fourth for starting point plus 3 min. Tabulatethe results of these tests by the percentages retained on eachsieve (see Section 10), and the length of sieving time requiredto stabilize the sieving result without particle size degradationshould be readily apparent and can be established. I

38、f necessary,keep adding additional minutes until the percentages are stable.9.6 Sieve until all portions of the sample are used. Combineall separately sieved material representing a particular sizefraction, but obtained from sieving separate portions of thesame sample.9.7 Continue sieving with succe

39、ssive sieves which have thedesired size openings until the sieve having the smallestdesired size opening is used. Combine all the pan contents thathave passed through this smallest size opening and considerthese a particle size fraction.NOTE 4When larger particles are present that can physically aff

40、ect thedimensional stability of sieve openings or possibly damage the sieve cloth,use a cover sieve (protective sieve of a larger mesh) to keep coarseparticles off the surface of the finer sieve.9.8 Sieving can be done by grouping sieves having thedesired size openings, always stacking larger sieve

41、openingsabove smaller, thus accomplishing the sieving in fewer opera-tions. This is known as nesting sieves.9.9 Always use sieve covers and collecting pans to preventloss of fines and larger coke particles.9.10 Weigh each size fraction of sieved coke including thebottom pan size fraction with a prec

42、ision equal to or better than0.5 % of the fraction being weighed. These masses are mf(finalsize fraction mass).9.11 Be aware that the objective of mechanically shakingsieves is to place all of the given particles of a given size on theappropriate sieve while avoiding size degradation of any ofthese

43、particles. Larger coke particles are especially susceptibleto particle degradation; avoid excessive sieving time (see9.5.1).10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the sum of the size fractions including panfraction (see 9.9) and call the sum Mf(combined final mass).10.1.1 Convert all masses to the same units

44、 beforecalculation, that is, kilograms or grams.10.1.2 Convert and utilize the masses of the size fractionsby both multiplying and making proper use of significantfigures. For example, if a size fraction weighed 11.25 kganother 204 g, and another 148 g, determine all the masses tothe nearest 0.01 kg

45、 (since 11.25 kg is reported to the nearest0.01 kg) before proceeding with calculations, as follows:11.25 kg0.20 kg0.15 kg11.60 kg10.2 If the percentage mass loss or gain is over 1 %, rejectthe analysis and make another test. The formula for thecalculation of the percentage mass loss or gain is as f

46、ollows:% M 5Mf2 Mi!100Mi(1)where:Mf= combined final mass (10.1),gorkg,Mi= initial test sample mass (9.1), g or kg, and%M = % mass loss or gain upon sieving, g or kg.A mass gain will result in a positive percent while a massloss will result in a negative percent.10.2.1 If the variation is greater tha

47、n the above tolerance of1 %, recheck the figures for possible errors in determiningmass, calculating, blinding of the sieve openings, or accidentalspillage. If a calculation, transcription, or other error isdetected and correctable, correct the error. If the resultingvariation from initial sample we

48、ight is within the 1 %tolerance, accept and report the corrected results. If the sourceof error is not detected, or if it is detected but uncorrectable,repeat the test.10.3 Convert the mass mf(see 9.8) of an individual sizefraction to a percentage basis by dividing the mass of thatportion by the com
