Adequateventilation is necessary when handling cyanide solutions and afume hood should be utilized whenever possible.7.2 WarningMany of the reagents used in these testmethods are highly toxic.

33、 the sample, cleaned thoroughly to remove allextraneous surface contamination prior to use. Chemicallyresistant glass containers as well as rigid plastic containersmade of high density polyethylene (HDPE) are suitable.Samples should be collected and stored in amber bottles tominimize exposure to ult

34、raviolet radiation in the samplecontainers. If samples will only be tested for total cyanide,amber containers are not mandatory.8.2.2 Virgin commercially-cleaned containers certified to befree of contamination are recommended; otherwise, washcontainers with soap or biodegradable detergent if require

35、d,then dry by draining. For further information on samplecontainers, see Practices D3694.8.3 Sample Collection, Preservation, and Mitigation ofInterferences:8.3.1 Collect a sample volume that is sufficient to theanalytical method into a sample bottle described above. If therequired sample volume is

36、not specified, usually 1 L issufficient for most analytical test methods, however, flowinjection and automated methods usually consume consider-ably less sample volume than manual methods.8.3.2 Unless otherwise specified, samples must be analyzedwithin 14 days. Certain sample matrices may require a

37、shorterholding time or immediate analysis to avoid cyanide degrada-tion due to interferences. Hold the sample no longer than thetime necessary to preclude a change in cyanide concentration.A holding time study described in Practice D4841 is requiredif there is evidence that a change in cyanide occur

38、s frominterferences which would cause the holding time to be shorterthan specified in this section, or within the time the samplewould be held if shorter than the time specified in this section.Potential interferences and their corresponding analyticalmethods are shown in Table 1.NOTE 1It is recomme

39、nded to investigate holding times for samplesthat meet any of the following conditionsdisinfected by chloraminationor ultraviolet irradiation, ammonia present and chlorinated, sulfur dioxideor sulfite used to dechlorinate, or if aldehydes are known or suspected tobe present.8.3.3 In the absence of i

40、nterference, simple cyanides such asHCN, KCN, and NaCN are determined readily by each of thedeterminative steps, however, to determine “total” cyanide,metal cyanide bonds must be broken and cyanide separated toproduce simple cyanide. In most total cyanide methods, this isaccomplished by distillation

41、 from acid solution. Althoughdistillation is assumed to eliminate or at least minimize mostinterferences, the high temperature and strong acid solutionscan potentially introduce significant positive or negative bias.Interferences for total cyanide by distillation are listed inTables 2 and 3. Interfe

42、rences are also dependent on thedeterminative step, which are shown in Table 4.8.3.4 There may be interferences that are not mitigated bythis procedure. Any technique for removal or suppression ofinterference may be employed, provided the laboratory dem-onstrates that it more accurately measures cya

43、nide throughquality control measures described in the analytical testmethod. Any removal or suppression technique not describedin this practice or the analytical test method should bedocumented along with supporting data. A challenge solutionwith potential interferences for cyanide analysis is descr

44、ibed inX1.1.1, which can be used as a sample matrix to examineanalytical method performance.8.3.5 Treat the sample immediately upon sample collectionusing any or all of the following techniques as necessary,followed by adjustment of the sample to pH 10 andrefrigeration. If applicable, laboratory mit

45、igation techniquesare also specified. Preserve the sample immediately (within 15minutes of collection or treatment using procedures describedin this practice) by adding 1 mL of 1M NaOH (6.7) per litre ofsample, and then verify that the pH is greater than pH 10 withindicator test strips (6.6). If nec

46、essary, continue to add sodiumhydroxide (6.7 or 6.8) drop wise until the pH is greater than pH10 being careful not to add excess. Do not add NaOH if thecyanide concentration would change as a result of the addition.8.3.5.1 Adding NaOH to samples containing formaldehyde(see Note 2 in 8.3.8) can possi

47、bly increase the cyanideconcentration during storage. Conversely, adding NaOH tosamples containing sulfite (see Note 3 in 8.4.2.2) can rapidlydecrease the cyanide concentration. If the addition or lack ofaddition of NaOH would affect the holding time, hold thesample for a time no longer than the tim

48、e necessary to maintainsample integrity (8.3.2).8.3.6 SulfideDuring sample collection, test for the pres-ence of sulfide by placing a drop of sample on a lead acetatetest strip that has been previously moistened with acetatebuffer. If the test strip turns black, sulfide is present (aboveapproximatel

49、y 50 mg/L S2-) and treatment is necessary asdescribed below.8.3.6.1 If the sample contains sulfide as indicated with alead acetate test strip or is known to contain sulfides that willinterfere with the test method, dilute the sample with reagentwater until the lead acetate test strip no longer indicates thepresence of sulfide (1 % suspended solids) or if the sample is known orsuspected to contain particulate cyanides (for example, ferricferro cyanide or Prussian blue), save the solids for extraction asdescribed in 8.4.3 on particulate cyanides, otherwi
