18、s4. 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 practice is intended for

19、 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 (10-99mass) to parts per million (10-66 mass) range.5.2 This practice is not intended for us

20、e when sampling aqueous systems where the concentrations of mercury are often in theparts per trillion (10-1212 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 This practice is n

21、ot 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 hydrocarbon ends it is

22、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 Based on this practice, two Test Methods (D7622 and D7623) are availa

23、ble for determination of mercury in crude oil, basedon cold vapor atomic absorption technique.5.6 In some refined streams and in tank samples free water may be present. Process streams that are water saturated maycondense water as the sample cools from process temperature to ambient temperature. Ion

24、ic mercury species are water soluble andthese water droplets may contain mercury or adsorb mercury over time.5.7 The presence of mercury during crude oil production, transport, and refining can be an environmental and industrial hygieneconcern.6. Apparatus6.1 Clear or Amber Borosilicate Glass, 40 mL

25、 or less in volume; pre-cleaned by acid-washing; with PTFE(polytetrafluoroethylene)-lined septum caps. These are commonly referred to as VOA vials and are 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 q

26、uantities” under IATA(International Air Transport Association) regulations. Determine specific shipping requirements with the appropriate knowledge-able personnel.6.2 Alternate ContainersQuartz. Epoxy-lined, tin-lined, or steel cans for direct or sub-sample may not be acceptable because,in some case

27、s, 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 acceptable.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

28、 hydrocarbon sampling procedures necessary to obtain discrete and homogeneous samples. Either grabsamples or composites from auto-samplers are allowed. Grab samples are preferred. When expecting particulates with adsorbedmercury or mercury droplets, iso-kinetic sampling is greatly preferred.7.2 Wash

29、 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 with a plastic bag, and then the setof three vials are overpacked in an appropriate container for transport or shipping. A set of three individually ba

30、gged sample vialsmay be bundled together and placed in a larger bag to separate them from other sample sets included in the same shipment.Adsorbant material 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 rup

31、tures.D7482 1727.4 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.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

32、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 container and plumbing materials and transfer details shall be documented in the notebookor Chain of Custody (COC) form.7.6 Purge sample taps s

33、ufficiently immediately prior to sampling to remove any elemental mercury droplets that haveaccumulated in the piping, valve, or crevices. In some cases, significant amounts of elemental mercury have been found toaccumulate in sample taps. Proper collection or recycling of the purge is important to

34、prevent release of mercury and workerexposure.7.7 It is imperative that persons conducting or supervising the sampling procedure understand the conditions that causeevaporative or other loss of mercury. While bulk mercury droplets are not highly volatile (vapor pressure 1 L).10. Analysis of Crude Oi

35、l10.1 Two methods for determination of mercury in crude oil are described in Test Methods D7622 and D7623, both based onelectrothermal volatilization of mercury species and subsequent atomic spectroscopic determination.10.2 Repeatability of analysis of these analyses in the 5 ng HgmL to 400 ng Hg/mL

36、 given in these standards is as follows:D7622 0.7147 X0.60D7623 0.4396 X0.5864Where X is the average mercury concentration in ng/mL.10.3 Reproducibility of the analyses has not been determined. Volatility of mercury compounds and elemental mercury presentin crude oil has been documented elsewhere.4

37、Further, replicate laboratory analyses on the same sample have found decreases inmercury concentration over time.5 Also, see the discussion about mercury occurrence in crude oils above in 1.2 and 1.3. Becauseof this, it is not practical to distribute the crude oil samples to laboratories and get rep

38、roducible results. Hence, the reproducibilityof this these test methods is not expected to be determined in the near future.11. Pollution Prevention and Waste Management11.1 Draw samples in accordance with both the facility requirements and applicable laws and regulations.Appropriate personalprotect

39、ive equipment shall be worn at all times. Return purge streams directly to the process, or collect for disposal or recycling.11.2 Free elemental mercury, collected as a separate material or contained with the hydrocarbon sample, shall be treated withextreme caution. Personal exposure to vapors from

40、free mercury droplets or puddles can exceed exposure limits. Appropriatepersonal protective equipment shall be worn by the sampling team whenever exposure is possible.4 Giles, H. N. and Mills, C.
