16、2959. United States14. Summary of Practice4.1 This practice describes the sampling, storage, transport, and handling of hydrocarbon samples used for determining mercury,and the precautions that need to be taken to prevent sample contamination and loss of analyte.5. Significance and Use5.1 This pract

17、ice is intended for use in sampling liquid hydrocarbons including crude oils, condensates, refinery processintermediates, and refined products. Generally these samples are expected to contain mercury from the parts per billion (10-9 mass)to parts per million (10-6 mass) range.5.2 This practice is no

18、t intended for use when sampling aqueous systems where the concentrations of mercury are often in theparts per trillion (10-12 mass) range. These samples are often better addressed by using the rigorously clean techniques from theEPA Method 1669 “clean hands, dirty hands” sampling procedures.5.3 Thi

19、s practice is not intended for use for liquefied samples, for which special containers may be required for pressurizedsamples.5.4 This practice is only suitable for stabilized samples which remain 100 % liquid at ambient conditions. For samples that ondepressurization lose some of the light hydrocar

20、bon ends it is important to note that elemental mercury may be lost duringsampling. Sampling modules which inject unstabilized liquid hydrocarbons close to process conditions directly to the mercuryanalyzer can be used to overcome this issue.5.5 In some refined streams and in tank samples free water

21、 may be present. Process streams that are water saturated maycondense water as the sample cools from process temperature to ambient temperature. Ionic mercury species are water soluble andthese water droplets may contain mercury or adsorb mercury over time.5.6 The presence of mercury during crude oi

22、l production, transport, and refining can be an environmental and industrial hygieneconcern.6. Apparatus6.1 Clear or Amber Borosilicate Glass, 40-mL or less in volume; pre-cleaned by acid-washing; with PTFE(polytetrafluoroethylene)-lined septum caps. These are commonly referred to as VOA vials and a

23、re used for many water samplesusing EPA methods.6.1.1 The use of 30-mLor smaller VOAvials may allow shipment of multiple sample vials as “excepted quantities” under IATA(International Air Transport Association) regulations. Determine specific shipping requirements with the appropriate knowledge-able

24、 personnel.6.2 Alternate ContainersQuartz. Epoxy-lined, tin-lined, or steel cans for direct or sub-sample may not be acceptable because,in some cases, these types of containers show a significant depletion of mercury (see 9.1 and 9.2).6.2.1 Tin-lined steel cans, direct or sub-sample, are not accepta

25、ble.6.3 Chain of Custody Forms.6.4 Permanent Marking Pens.6.5 Resealable BagsClear, plastic, 1-L capacity.7. Sampling Procedure7.1 Employ the normal hydrocarbon sampling procedures necessary to obtain discrete and homogeneous samples. Either grabsamples or composites from auto-samplers are allowed.

26、Grab samples are preferred. When expecting particulates with adsorbedmercury or mercury droplets, iso-kinetic sampling is greatly preferred.7.2 Wash the VOA vials with nitric acid, rinse with water, and dry.7.3 A sample “set” is defined as three VOA glass vials. Each vial is individually wrapped wit

27、h a plastic bag, and then the setof three vials are overpacked in an appropriate container for transport or shipping. A set of three individually bagged sample vialsmay be bundled together and placed in a larger bag to separate them from other sample sets included in the same shipment.Adsorbant mate

28、rial may be packed around the bagged vials to further protect against damage during shipping and release of oneor more of the sample vials if it ruptures.7.4 One sample set is required for each sampling event. Fill three sample vials for each oil sampled as close to the same pointin time as possible

29、.7.5 Sampling shall be done directly into the VOA vials if possible. If it is necessary to sample into one container and thentransfer into the VOA vial, record the details of the original container and sampling method, as well as the details of the transfer.Auto-samplers are acceptable, but the cont

30、ainer and plumbing materials and transfer details shall be documented in the notebookor Chain of Custody (COC) form.D7482 1427.6 Purge sample taps sufficiently immediately prior to sampling to remove any elemental mercury droplets that haveaccumulated in the piping, valve, or crevices. In some cases

31、, significant amounts of elemental mercury have been found toaccumulate in sample taps. Proper collection or recycling of the purge is important to prevent release of mercury and workerexposure.7.7 It is imperative that persons conducting or supervising the sampling procedure understand the conditio

32、ns that causeevaporative or other loss of mercury. While bulk mercury droplets are not highly volatile (vapor pressure 1 L).10. Pollution Prevention and Waste Management10.1 Draw samples in accordance with both the facility requirements and applicable laws and regulations.Appropriate personalprotect

33、ive equipment shall be worn at all times. Return purge streams directly to the process, or collect for disposal or recycling.10.2 Free elemental mercury, collected as a separate material or contained with the hydrocarbon sample, shall be treated withextreme caution. Personal exposure to vapors from

34、free mercury droplets or puddles can exceed exposure limits. Appropriatepersonal protective equipment shall be worn by the sampling team whenever exposure is possible.10.3 Elemental mercury can be collected (for example, using a mercury vacuum) for disposal, or rendered less hazardous bytreating wit

35、h various sulfur compounds or finely dispersed metal powders (for example, zinc, when activated by mild acid wash)to convert it to less-volatile and less toxic compounds. Facility procedures for responding to releases of elemental mercury shallbe applied.10.4 Disposal of mercury-contaminated materia

36、ls, elemental mercury, or mercury compounds shall be referred to the facilityhazardous waste coordinator.11.
