Summary of Practice4.1 A known volu

16、me of gaseous sample is bubbled throughan impinger containing 0.1M sodium hydroxide solutionutilizing a calibrated pumping system. Particulates that maypass through the impinger are captured on a glass fiber filterthen recombined back into the impinger solution prior toanalysis. Because HCN is solub

17、le in aqueous solutions, it maybe present in water droplets formed from either a wet scrubbersystem or condensation in the stack. Because of this, samplesthat contain moist air should be sampled near isokineticconditions.4.2 During the sampling process, hydrogen cyanide (HCN)is converted to cyanide

18、ion (CN-) in the sodium hydroxidesolution. The CN-is analyzed with a flow injection analysis(FIA) system described in Test Method D 6888 or with asuitable analytical method such as ion chromatography de-scribed in Test Methods D 2036.4.2.1 Colorimetric and ion selective electrode methods, alsodescri

Significance and Use5.1 Hydrogen cyanide is highly toxic. In relatively lowquantities, hydrogen cyanide can cause asphyxia and death.5.2 The Nation

Greenberg-Smith im-pingers equipped with a standard tip with 500-mL capacitymay be used when larger flow rates are desired. Impingerconnections should consist of leak free ground glass joints toavoid th

23、e loss of HCN during sampling and should be free ofany silicone grease. The use of a single impinger has shown toyield an average of 97 % efficiency in combustion effluents;however, higher efficiencies are possible using additionalimpingers in series. Without prior knowledge of the atmo-sphere, it i

24、s recommended to use a backup impinger todetermine if breakthrough occurs. Test each impinger forcyanide as a separate sample in order to demonstrate captureefficiency; mathematically combine the results by adding theobserved concentrations.6.1.3 Sample Collection Tubing and ProbesCollectiontubing a

25、nd probes should be constructed of inert material suchPTFE or PTFE-lined stainless steel. Vinyl tubing can be usedin the sample train where flexible tubing is necessary, but theaforementioned are preferred. The sample lines should beheated at 120 6 5C when sampling stack emissions in moistair in ord

The filters are used between theimpingers and pumping system to capture fine particulates thatmay p

27、ass through the impingers and to protect the pumpingsystem. It is recommended to use 13-mm filters for mini-impingers and 47-mm filters for Greenberg-Smith impingers.6.1.5 Duplicate and Matrix Spike Sample TrainsIt isrecommended to setup duplicate impingers to evaluate preci-sion. In addition, a sec

28、ond set of impingers can be fortified witha known amount of cyanide (see 8.11) to evaluate recovery.Fig. 1 shows an example of such a system.6.1.6 ThermometerMeasure the temperature of the stackor atmosphere with a mercury thermometer or an equivalentdigital thermometer capable of accurately reading

Interferences7.1 Sulfide, aldehydes, and oxidizing agents in the atmo-sphere are possible interferences.7.2 Prior to conducting sampling and analysis, review 9.4 inorder to avoid cyanide degradation or inaccurate results.8.

Store the solution underrefrigeration and check concentration approximately every sixmonths and correct if necessary. Commerc

36、ially prepared solu-tions are also available and can be used for spiking purposes.(WarningBecause of the toxicity of cyanide, great care mustbe exercised in its handling. Acidification of cyanide solutionsproduces toxic hydrocyanic acid (HCN). All manipulationsmust be done in the hood so that any HC

37、N gas that mightescape is safely vented.)9. Procedure9.1 Stack Evaluation (Flow Through Systems)9.1.1 Determine the velocity of the stack as described inTest Method D 3154 or US EPA Method 23.9.1.2 Because HCN is soluble in aqueous solutions, it maybe present in water droplets formed from either a w

38、et scrubbersystem or condensation in the stack. Because of this, samplesthat contain moist air should be sampled near isokineticconditions. To determine if the moisture in the stack issaturated, test with the wet bulb/dry bulb procedure describedin Test Method E 337 or estimate the moisture content

39、by USEPA Method 44.9.1.3 If isokinetic sampling is required, see Test MethodsD 3685/D 3685M or US EPAMethod 55to determine the probediameter and sampling flow rate. This flow rate will bemaintained during the entire sampling event.9.2 Open and Closed Chamber Systems (Non-Flow ThroughSystems)9.2.1 Wh

40、en samples are collected from workplace monitor-ing areas or closed chamber combustion devices, the samplingrate (which will determine the volume of sample collected)should be selected based on the expected concentration ofHCN or the required detection limit.9.2.2 Since open and closed chamber syste

41、ms are not flowdependent (that is, there is no measurable flow) isokineticsampling is not possible. Adequate sampling rates and sam-pling times should be used to collect a representative sample.When comparing combustion emissions from various materi-als, it is recommended to keep the sampling rate c

The volume of impinger solution will depend on thesize of impinger. It is recommended to use 100 mL of the3Method 2, Velocity - S-type Pitot, U. S.

To specifically determine the particulate cyanides, a prefilter canbe placed prior to the impinger(s). After sampling, this filter and thecaptured solids are extracted with 0.1M NaOH th

If the particles contain strong-acid dissociablemetal cyanide complexes such as potassium ferricyanide or potassiumferrocyanide, it will be necessary to digest the extract and particles withthe total cyanide procedure described in Test Methods D 2036

47、, TestMethod A prior to analysis.9.3.2 If necessary, heat the sample probe and transfer line to120C during sampling in order to prevent condensation in thesample probe and transfer line.9.3.3 Check the sample train system for leaks prior tosampling. Start the pumps and collect sample for a knownamou

48、nt of time. The sampling time will vary depending on theamount of cyanide emissions that are expected. Stack samplesare typically sampled for 30 to 60 minutes; however, firesmoke effluents may require substantially shorter samplingtimes depending on the combusted material. Workplace envi-ronments ma

49、y need sampled for longer periods of time in orderto achieve the required detection limits.9.3.4 If any of the impinger solution is lost from volatiliza-tion during sampling, adjust to the original volume withreagent water upon completion of sampling, or measure theremaining volume with a graduated cylinder. Transfer theimpinger solutions into labeled polyethylene bottles.9.3.5 When sampling acidic atmospheres, verify that the pHof each impinger solution is greater than pH 12 with indicatingtest strips, pH meter, or with an indicating solution such asAlizarin Y
