Samples collected fromthese wells that require analysis for dissolved constituentsshould be

Purpose of Ground-Water Sample Filtration5.1 Ground-water samples may be filtered to separate adefined fraction of the sample for analysis.6. Timing of Ground-Water Sample Filtration6.1 Ground-water s

19、amples should be filtered immediatelyupon collection and prior to chemical preservation of thesample. (1)4Filtration should be completed in as short a timeas possible while minimizing sample aeration, agitation, pres-sure changes, temperature changes and prolonged contact withambient air.NOTE 1The p

20、ressure change that occurs when the sample is broughtto the surface may cause changes in sample chemistry which includelosses of dissolved gases and precipitation of dissolved constituents suchas metals. When handling samples during filtration operations, additionalturbulence and mixing of the sampl

Ground-Water Sample Filtration Procedures7.1 Preparation for Ground-Water Sample FiltrationTheground-water s

22、ample filtration process consists of three phases:selection of filtration method; selection and pretreatment offilter media; and ground-water sample filtration prior to trans-fer into the sample container.7.1.1 Filtration Method Selection CriteriaA wide varietyof methods are available for field filt

23、ration of ground-watersamples. In general, filtration equipment can be divided intopositive pressure filtration and vacuum (negative pressure)filtration methods, each with several different filtration mediumconfigurations. Ground-water samples undergo pressurechanges as they are brought from the sat

24、urated zone (whereground water is under pressure greater than atmospheric) to thesurface (where it is under atmospheric pressure), resulting inchanges in sample chemistry. Vacuum filtration methods fur-ther exacerbate pressure changes. For this reason, positivepressure filtration methods are preferr

Fig. 1 presents examples ofcommon filter characteristics and applications.7.1.2 When selecting a filtration method, the followingcriteria should be evaluated on a site-by-site basis:7.

If an improved method of filtration is determined to beappropriate for a sampling program, the sampling and analysisplan should be revised and implemented in lieu of continuationof the existing filtration method. In this event, the effect oncomparabilit

35、y of data needs to be examined and quantified toallow proper data analysis and interpretation (Note 4).NOTE 4Statistical methods may need to be implemented to determinethe significance of any changes in data resulting from a change in filtrationmethod.7.1.3 Filtration Equipment Materials of Construc

36、tionFiltration equipment and filtration media are available in awide variety of materials of construction. Materials of con-struction should be evaluated (for example, by contactingmanufacturers, conducting leach tests or collecting equipmentblanks) to minimize sample bias:7.1.3.1 Potential for nega

37、tive bias due to adsorption ofconstituents from the sample (2);7.1.3.2 Potential for positive bias due to desorption orleaching of constituents into the sample (3-6);7.1.3.3 Reduction of the effective filter pore size caused byclogging when filtering water containing suspended particles;(6) and7.1.3

38、.4 Aeration of the sample leading to precipitation ofsome constituents (for example, ferric hydroxide) (3).7.1.4 Selection and Pretreatment of Filter MediaFiltration media are manufactured with specific pore sizediameters designed to permit particles of a selected size to beretained by the filter me

39、dium. Filtration media must be selectedafter considering filter pore size, and materials of construction.Ground-water samples requiring field filtration must be filteredusing a medium with a pore size that meets the requirements ofthe approved sampling and analysis plan.7.1.5 Preconditioning of the

40、Filtration Medium:7.1.5.1 Filter media require preconditioning prior to samplefiltration (7). Purposes of filter preconditioning include: tominimize positive sample bias associated with residues thatmay exist on the filter surface or constituents that may leachfrom the filter; and to create a unifor

41、m wetting front across theentire surface of the filter to prevent channel flow through thefilter and increase the efficiency of the filter surface area.Preconditioning the filter medium may not completely preventsorptive losses from the sample as it passes through the filtermedium.7.1.5.2 In most ca

42、ses, filter preconditioning should be doneat the wellhead (Note 5) immediately prior to use. Somemanufacturers prerinse filters prior to sale. These filters aretypically marked “prerinsed” on filter packaging and providedirections for any additional field preconditioning requiredprior to filter use.

43、NOTE 5Some filters require preconditioning procedures that can onlybe done in the laboratory (for example, GF/F filters must be baked priorto use).7.1.5.3 The procedure used to precondition the filter me-dium is determined by the following: the design of the filter(that is, filter capsules, or disks

44、), the material of construction ofthe filter medium, the configuration of the filtration equipment,and the parameters of concern for sample analysis. Filtrationmedium manufacturers instructions should be followed priorto implementing any filter preconditioning protocols in thefield to ensure that pr

45、oper methods are employed and tominimize potential bias of samples being filtered.7.1.5.4 The volume of water used in filter preconditioning isdependent upon the surface area of the filter and the mediumsability to absorb liquid. Many filter media become fragile whensaturated and are highly subject

46、to damage during handling.Therefore, saturated filter media should be handled carefullyand are best preconditioned immediately prior to use.7.1.6 Preconditioning of Disk FiltersDisk filters (alsoknown as plate filters) should be preconditioned as follows:FIG. 1 Examples of Common Filter Characterist

47、ics and ApplicationsD 6564 00 (2005)37.1.6.1 Hold the edge of the filter with filter forceps con-structed of materials that are appropriate for the analytes ofinterest (Note 6);NOTE 6Manufacturers often use colored parchment paper disks (forexample, yellow or blue) to separate filter disks and these

48、 should not beconfused with the filtration medium.7.1.6.2 Saturate the entire filter disk with water (Note 7)(while holding the filter over a containment vessel (not thesample bottle or filter holder) to catch all run-off, then;NOTE 7Filter manufacturers should be consulted to determine filter-speci

49、fic volumes of water or medium-specific aqueous solution to be usedfor optimum filter preconditioning.7.1.6.3 Place the saturated filter on the appropriate filterstand or holder in preparation for sample filtration;7.1.6.4 Complete assembly of the filtration apparatus;7.1.6.5 Pass recommended volume of water through thefilter to complete preconditioning;7.1.6.6 Discard preconditioning water;7.1.6.7 Begin sample filtration using a clean filtration con-tainment vessel or flask.7.1.6.8 When preconditioning disk filters, care should betaken not to perforate the
