3、-dispersive X-ray fluores-cence (EDXRF) spectrometry in typical liquid hazardous wastefuels (LHWF) used by industrial furnaces.1.2 This test method has been used successfully on numer-ous samples of LHWF that are mixtures of solvents, oils,paints, and pigments for the determination of the followinge

4、lements: Ag, As, Ba, Cd, Cr, Hg, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, and Tl.1.3 This test method also may be applicable to elements notlisted above and to the analysis of trace metals in organicliquids other than those used as LHWF.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associa

Thesample is heated for 15 to 30 min at a temperature notexceeding 105C to evaporate highly volatile components. Thed

7、ish is removed from the hot plate and allowed to cool.Graphite powder is blended with the evaporated sample until ahomogeneous paste is produced and the sample weight isrecorded. The blended sample is inserted in a disposablesample cup and placed in the X-ray spectrometer for analysis.3.2 The K Spec

8、tral X-ray emission lines are used forAg,As,Ba, Cd, Cr, Ni, Sb, and Se.3.3 The L spectral X-ray emission lines are used for Hg, Pb,and Tl.4. Significance and Use4.1 The analysis of trace elements is often a regulatory andprocess specific requirement for facilities utilizing LHWF.With proper instrume

9、nt standardization, set-up, and qualitycontrol, this test method provides the user an accurate, rapid,nondestructive method for trace element determinations.5. Interferences5.1 Spectral Overlaps:5.1.1 Samples containing a mixture of elements often ex-hibit X-ray emission line overlap. Modern Si (Li)

10、 detectorsgenerally provide adequate resolution to minimize the effectsof spectrum overlaps on the analytical results of the LHWF. Inthose cases where direct emission line overlap exists, spectraldeconvolution methods extract corrected analyte emission lineintensities. Table 1 lists the significant

11、line overlaps observedfor the elements analyzed in LHWF. Follow the EDXRFmanufacturers recommendations concerning spectral decon-volution of the emission lines.NOTE 1Not all possible interferences are listed in Table 1. The LHWFsamples to be analyzed may have other emission line interferences notmen

12、tioned. Consult the manufacturers recommendations for optimumdeconvolution methods.5.2 Matrix Interferences:5.2.1 Large concentration variations of metal or matrixcomponents, or both, in LHWF samples can result in non-linear metal X-ray intensity response at increasing metalconcentrations. Untreated

13、 matrix interactions may have adeleterious effect on metal determination accuracy. Matrixinteractions, if exhibited by the LHWF samples, must beaccounted for by method calibration.1This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D34 on WasteManagement and is the direct responsibility of Subco

Samplescontaining significant levels of very volatile components mayneed to be heated initially at a lower temperature. If spatteringof the

40、sample is observed, the sample should be removed fromthe hot plate and allowed to cool slightly. Adjust the hot plateto a lower temperature and replace evaporating dish andsample on the hot plate and continue heating. The heating ofthe sample is a concentration step, so the heating time is not acrit

Generally, the time required to evaporate thevolatile fraction from most LHWF is approximately 15 to 30min.11.1.3 Remove the dish from the hot plate and allow to coolto the touch.11.1.4 If the evaporated sample appears to contain large orvariable sized solid material, it may be necessar

42、y to grind thesample in a mortar and pestle or other suitable device.11.1.5 Mix graphite into the evaporated sample with a labspatula or equivalent device until a homogeneous paste resultsthat has no clumping, and when allowed to stand briefly,exhibits no visible liquid phase separation. An approxim

Weigh thegraphite/sample mixture and record.11.1.6 Mount the graphite/sample preparation in an XRFsample cup as described in 10.3.11.1.7 Place the mounted sample preparation into the spec-trometers designated sample holder. Avoid touching the thi
