Organization of Sampling Operation5.1 Place of Sampling:5.1.1 Sample calcined petroleum coke while it is beingloaded into or u

16、nloaded from railcars, ships, barges, or trucks,or when discharged from kilns, supply bins, grab buckets, beltconveyors, or other conveying equipment. The sample shouldbe collected as close to the point of interest as possible.5.1.2 Samples collected from the stationary surface ofcalcined petroleum

17、coke in stockpiles, bins, railcars, trucks,ships, or barges may be unreliable because of size segregationand shall not be used for determining conformance to specifi-cations unless the purchaser and the seller agree. If it isnecessary to collect a stationary sample of calcined petroleumcoke, use a s

18、ampling method mutually acceptable to allinvolved parties.5.2 Collection of Gross Sample:5.2.1 Collect increments systematically, and with such fre-quency to produce a representative sample mutually acceptableto all involved parties.5.2.2 It is recommended the gross sample contain at leastthe requir

19、ed minimum number of increments as outlined inTable 1.5.2.3 The quantity of sample to be taken assumes that thetop size of the coke is 25 mm (1 in.) or less.5.3 Four Conditions of Increment Collection are Recog-nized:5.3.1 Condition A (stopped-belt cut), in which a loadedconveyor belt is stopped and

20、 a full cross-section cut withparallel sides is removed from the calcined petroleum cokestream. The distance between the parallel faces shall not be lessthan three times the normal top size of the calcined petroleumcoke.5.3.2 Condition B (full-stream cut), in which a full crosssection cut is removed

21、 from a moving stream of calcinedpetroleum coke either by manual or mechanical means.5.3.3 Condition C (part-stream cut), in which a portion, nota full cross section, is removed from a moving stream ofcalcined petroleum coke.5.3.4 Condition D (stationary sampling), in which a portionof calcined petr

22、oleum coke is collected from a pile, a rail car,a barge, truck, or a shiphold.5.4 Size of Increments:5.4.1 Collect increments using a specially designed tool ormechanical device capable of taking increments of equal mass.Increments comprising a gross sample shall not weigh less than2 kg (4.4 lb) eac

23、h.5.5 Quantities Represented:5.5.1 Collect a gross sample for each 2000 metric tons orfraction thereof, or in case of larger tonnage, as may bemutually agreed upon by all involved parties. Practical expe-rience, however, indicates the maximum size of a lot ofcalcined petroleum coke to be represented

24、 by one gross sampleshall not exceed 15 000 metric tons (see Table 1). Separatesamples shall be taken from each lot of calcined petroleumcoke arising from a different source or known to be of differentquality or size.5.6 Distribution of Increments:5.6.1 It is essential that the increments be distrib

25、utedthroughout the lot to be sampled. This distribution is related tothe entire volume of the lot, not merely its surface or any lineardirection through it or over it. If circumstances prevent thesampler from applying this principle, then the lot is sampledonly in part, and the gross sample is repre

26、sentative only of thispart. The spacing of increments shall be varied if the possibilityexists that increment collection may get in phase with thesequence of calcined petroleum coke variability. Example:routine sampling where increment collection from a continuousstream (conveyor belt), and where in

27、crement collection isautomatic and its sequence coincides with the highs or lows inthe content of fines.6. Sampling Requirements6.1 Dimensions of Sampling DeviceThe opening of thesampling device shall be at least three times the top-size of thecalcined petroleum coke. For practical reasons, however,

28、 it isrecommended that the opening of any sampling device be notless than 32 mm (114 in.), regardless of the top size of thecalcined petroleum coke. The sampling device shall be ofsufficient capacity to completely retain or entirely pass theincrement without loss or spillage at the maximum flow rate

29、 ofmaterial.6.2 Movement of Sampling DeviceIn sampling from mov-ing streams of calcined petroleum coke, the sampling device,either mechanical or manual, shall be designed to minimizedisturbance of the calcined petroleum coke, thereby avoidingseparation of various densities and sizes, or both.6.3 Mec

30、hanical Sampling Devices:6.3.1 Cross-stream SamplersThe cross-stream sampler isdesigned to extract increments from falling streams of calcinedpetroleum coke at the end of conveyors or at transfer pointsbetween two conveyors, or both. Increments are obtained by asingle passage of the cross-stream cut

31、ting device through thefalling stream. Cross-stream cutter speeds must be carefully setand maintained so as to prevent segregation and rejection dueto disturbance of the falling stream. Cutter speeds of 454 mm/s(18 in./s) and less have been shown to produce acceptableresults. Additionally, the cutte

32、r must traverse the stream at aconstant velocity and also for each pass.6.3.2 Sweep-arm SamplersThe sweep-arm sampler is de-signed to extract increments directly from the conveyor sur-face. Increments are obtained by a single rotation of thesweep-arm cutting device across the moving, loaded conveyor

33、in a path perpendicular to its material flow. Practical experi-ence indicates that the velocity with which the sweep-armcutter travels across the conveyor shall be as high as possible.The conveyor belt curvature shall be reasonably profiled tomatch that of the bottom of the sweep-arm cutter as it ro

34、tatesacross the material flow. Any blades, brushes, or skirts fitted tothe back of the sweep-arm cutter shall be routinely inspectedand adjusted so that they maintain close contact with theTABLE 1 Minimum Increments Required Per LotSample Lot, metric tons Number of Increments1 to 2000 152001 to 5000

35、 205001 to 10 000 2510 001 to 15 000 30D 6970 03 (2008)2surface of the conveyor to further insure complete incrementextraction. Exercise care to ensure that only material collectedby the cutter is retained in the sample.6.4 Mechanical System Features:6.4.1 It is essential that mechanized systems as

36、a whole,including sampling devices, chutes, feed conveyors, crushers,and other devices be self-cleaning and non-clogging and bedesigned in a manner that facilitates routine inspection, main-tenance, and performance testing.6.4.2 If a secondary sampler is used in conjunction with theprimary sampler (

37、cutter), it is recommended to collect aminimum of three secondary increments per primary.6.5 Criteria of Satisfactory PerformanceA satisfactorysampling arrangement is one that produces a sample withaccuracy acceptable to all involved parties. One fundamentalcharacteristic of such an arrangement is t

38、hat the size consist ofthe sample will adequately represent the true size consist of thecalcined petroleum coke. Mechanical sampling systems will beperformance tested initially and at regular intervals thereafterto determine that the sample adequately represents the calcinedpetroleum coke under the

39、normal range of conditions expected.Performance testing can include, but is not limited to: (1)Statistically sound comparisons of sample analysis obtainedfrom the sampling system with stopped-belt samples of thesame calcined petroleum coke; (2) inspections by qualifiedpersonnel; (3) comparison of ac

40、tual versus calculated incre-ment weights; and (4) comparison of the weight or volume ofcollected sample with that of the total flow of calcinedpetroleum coke to assure proper and consistent extractioncriteria. In all cases, performance testing will be conductedutilizing consistent practice and exec

41、ution acceptable to allinterested parties.NOTE 1See Guide D 4702 which can serve as a reference for theinspection of mechanical sampling systems.6.6 Preservation of MoistureIn cases where determina-tion of sample moisture is important, increments obtained bysampling shall be protected from changes i

42、n composition dueto exposure to rain, snow, wind, sun, contact with absorbentmaterials, extremes of temperature, and excessive air flowthrough the sampling system. Such samples shall be stored inmoisture-tight containers. Metal cans with airtight lids, orheavy vapor-impervious bags, properly sealed,

43、 are satisfactoryfor this purpose.7. Processing of the Test Sample7.1 Since some analyses must be performed on the unpre-pared calcined petroleum coke and others on crushed orpulverized material, prior knowledge of the analytical require-ments is necessary before beginning sample preparation.7.2 Pro

44、cess the samples collected for sieve analysis ofcalcined petroleum coke in accordance with the proceduregiven in Test Method D 5709.7.3 Process the samples taken for the determination of totalmoisture and chemical analysis in accordance with the proce-dure given in D 6969, “Draft Standard Practice f
