Summary of Test Method4.1 B100 Biodiesel Blend Stock Filtration:4.1.1 Ameasured volume of about 400 mLto 450 mLof biodiesel ester (B100) is vacuum filtered through one 0.7 m glass fiberfilter. If upon visual inspection particulate conta

15、mination is observed, this may result in a high filtration time. In such cases, whenthe contamination is high or of a nature that induces slow filtration rates, two or more filtrations using a fresh filter each time maybe required to complete filtration in a reasonable time.4.1.2 After the filtratio

16、n has been completed, the filter is washed with solvent, dried, and weighed.The particulate contaminationlevel is determined by the mass gained by the glass fiber filter, and is reported in units of grams per cubic metre or its equivalentin milligrams per litre.4.2 BXX Biodiesel Blend Filtration:4.2

17、.1 A measured volume of about 800 mL to 900 mL of biodiesel blend (BXX) is vacuum filtered through one 0.7 m glassfiber filter. If upon visual inspection particulate contamination is observed, this may result in a high filtration time. In such cases,when the contamination is high or of a nature that

18、 induces slow filtration rates, two or more filtrations using a fresh filter each timemay be required to complete filtration in a reasonable time.4.2.2 After the filtration has been completed, the filter is washed with solvent, dried, and weighed.The particulate contaminationlevel is determined by t

19、he mass gained from the glass fiber filter, and is reported in units of grams per cubic metre or its equivalentin milligrams per litre.5. Significance and Use5.1 The mass of particulates present in a fuel is a significant factor, along with the size and nature of the individual particles,in the rapi

20、dity with which fuel system filters and other small orifices in fuel systems can become plugged. This test methodprovides a means of assessing the mass of particulates present in a fuel sample.5.2 The test method can be used in specifications and purchase documents as a means of controlling particul

33、 Fiber Filter, plain, with a diameter of 47 mm and a nominal pore size of 0.7 m.7.6 Protective Cover, polyethylene film or clean aluminum foil.8. Sampling8.1 Sampling for Procedure for Biodiesel Blend Stock (B100):8.1.1 The sample container should be 500 mL (60.015 L)(615 mL) in volume and have a sc

34、rew-on cap with an inert liner.Glass containers are preferred to facilitate a visual inspection of the contents and the container before and after filling. Glasscontainers also allow for visual inspection of the container, after the sample is emptied, to confirm complete rinsing of thecontainer. Epo

35、xy-lined sample cans, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) bottles, and high density linear polyethylene bottles have alsobeen found suitable as sample containers, but they are less desirable since visual inspection of the interior of the container is moredifficult.8.1.1.1 It is imperative that the entire

36、 contents of the sample container are filtered during the B100 filtration. This includes notonly all of the fuel but also all rinsings of the interior of the container with flushing fluid. Because of this, take care to protect thesample from any external contamination.8.1.2 If it is not possible to

37、sample in a 500 mL bottle, or the sample has already been received in a 1 L bottle, follow 8.1.2.1.8.1.2.1 Vigorously shake the sample for 1 min, and transfer 400 mL to 450 mL (615 mL) to a clean fresh 500 mL (60.015 L)bottle. If a clean fresh 500 mL (60.015 L) bottle is not available, use a clean f

38、resh 1 L (60.015 L) bottle.8.1.3 Precautions to avoid sample contamination shall include selection of an appropriate sampling point. Samples shouldpreferentially be obtained dynamically from a sampling loop in a distribution line, or from the flushing line of a field samplingkit. Ensure that the lin

39、e to be sampled is flushed with fuel before taking the sample.8.1.3.1 Where it is desirable or only possible to obtain samples from static storage, follow the procedures given in PracticeD4057 or equivalent, taking precautions for cleanliness of all equipment used. Ensure that the sample has not pas

40、sed throughintermediate containers prior to placement in the prepared container.NOTE 5Samples obtained from static storage may give results that are not representative of the bulk contents of the tank because of particulate mattersettling. Where possible, the contents of the tank should be circulate

41、d or agitated before sampling, or the sampling should be performed shortly after atank has been filled.3 Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Society Specifications, American Chemical Society, Washington, DC.

(USPC), Rockville, MD.D7321 16a38.1.4 Visually inspect the sample container before takingcollecting the samples to verify that there

43、 are no visible particlespresent inside the container. Fill the sample container 90 volume percent full, leaving space for vaporCollect 800 mL to 900 mL(615 mL), in a 1 L sample bottle or 400 mL to 500 mL (615 mL) in a 500 mL (615 mL) sample bottle and ensure that there isan ullage (vapor space) of

44、at least 10 % of the container volume to allow for liquid expansion. Protect the fuel sample fromprolonged exposure to light by wrapping the container in aluminum foil or storing it in the dark to reduce the possibility ofparticulate formation by light-promoted reactions. Do not transfer the fuel sa

45、mple from its original sample container into anintermediate storage container. If the original sample container is damaged or leaking, then a new sample must be obtained.8.1.5 Analyze fuel samples as soon as possible after sampling. When a fuel cannot be analyzed within one day, it should beblankete

46、d with an inert gas such as oxygen-free nitrogen, argon, or helium. Store at a temperature no higher than 10 C; sampleswith cloud points above 10 C may be stored at room temperature.8.2 Sampling for Procedure for Biodiesel Blends (BXX):8.2.1 The sample container for BXX shall be 1 L (60.015 L)(615 m

47、L) in volume and have a screw-on cap with an inert liner.Glass containers are preferred to facilitate a visual inspection of the contents and the container before and after filling. Glasscontainers also allow for visual inspection of the container, after the sample is emptied, to confirm complete ri

48、nsing of thecontainer. Epoxy-lined sample cans, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) bottles, and high density linear polyethylene bottles have alsobeen found suitable as sample containers, but these are less desirable since visual inspection of the interior of the container is moredifficult.8.2.1.1 It is

49、 important to note that the entire contents of the sample container are filtered during the BXX filtration. This includesnot only all of the fuel but also all rinsings of the interior of the container with flushing fluid. Because of this, take care to protectthe sample from any external contamination. The expectation is, allowing for ullage, is that the volume in the 1 L sample bottlewill be 800 mL (60.015 L).to 900 mL, allowing for 10 % ullage.8.2.2 Follow 8.1.3 8.1.5.9.
