Significance and Use5.1 The stand

15、ard is available to producers and users of RDFfor determining the content and forms of chlorine present in thefuel.6. Precautions6.1 Due to the origins of RDF in municipal waste, commonsense dictates that some precautions should be observed whenconducting tests on the samples. Recommended hygienicpr

16、actices include use of gloves when handling RDF; wearingdust masks (NIOSH-approved type), especially while millingRDF samples; conducting tests under negative pressure hoodwhen possible; and washing hands before eating or smoking.7. Interferences7.1 Potentiometric Titration Method A:7.1.1 Iodide and

17、 bromide are also titrated as chloride.Ferricyanide causes high results and must be removed. Chro-mate and dichromate interfere and should be reduced to thechromic state or be removed. Ferric iron interferes if present inan amount substantially higher than the amount of chloride.Chromic ions, ferrou

18、s ions, and phosphates do not interfere.7.1.2 Grossly contaminated sample solutions usually re-quire pretreatment. Where contamination is minor, some con-taminants can be destroyed simply by the addition of nitricacid.7.2 Volhard Titration Method B:7.2.1 Compounds that have a strong oxidizing action

19、 inter-fere by reacting with thiocyanate. These compounds should bereduced beforehand by treatment with ferrous sulfate or asimilar reducing agent.7.2.2 Salts of mercury and palladium interfere by reactingwith thiocyanate. They may be removed by precipitation withhydrogen sulfide before the addition

20、 of silver nitrate. Theexcess of sulfide is easily removed by gently boiling the acidsolution for a few minutes. Sulfite can be eliminated in thesame way.7.2.3 Cyanide is also precipitated by silver nitrate. It isusually determined separately by the Liebig-Deniges methodand a correction is applied t

21、o the results of the Volhardtitration.47.2.4 The Volhard method, as with the potentiometricmethod, directly applied to a mixture of halides can determineonly total halide content excluding fluoride. Preliminary treat-ment is necessary for the determination of chloride alone in amixture.58. Apparatus

This procedure must be performed carefully topreserve the samples representative characteristics (other thanparticle size) while preparing the analysis sample to be used inthe procedures.PREPARATION OF CHLORINE SOLUTIONS FORANALYSIS11. Total Chlorine (Oxygen Bomb Method)11.1 Preparation of Sam

36、ple and Bomb (see Note 3):11.1.1 Sample WeightWeigh to the nearest 0.1 mg about 1g of thoroughly mixed air-dried analysis RDF sample into thebomb capsule.Apellet may be made from the air-dried analysisRDF sample, accurately weighed, and placed into the bombcapsule. Place the capsule containing the s

37、ample into thecapsule holder.NOTE 2There is a tendency for chlorine to adhere to the bomb walls,especially if the bomb is pitted or has been used previously to determinehigh levels of chlorine. Unless the bomb is thoroughly cleaned before use,the blanks may have values in excess of reality.11.1.2 Fi

38、ring WireConnect a length of firing wire to theignition terminals in such a manner that the loop of firing wireis in contact with the sample.11.1.3 Bomb PreparationAdd 20 to 25 mL of 0.02 Npotassium hydroxide solution to the bomb and wet the entireinternal surface of the bomb with this solution (see

39、 Note 3).Assemble the bomb.NOTE 3Sodium hydroxide solution at appropriate concentration maybe used.11.2 Addition of OxygenAdmit oxygen to the bombslowly to avoid blowing the sample from the capsule until apressure of 25 atm is reached.11.2.1 WarningThe following precautions are recom-mended for safe

40、 calorimeter operation. Additional precautionsare given in Practice E 144.11.2.1.1 The weight of RDF sample and the pressure of theoxygen admitted to the bomb must not exceed the bombmanufacturers recommendations.11.2.1.2 Bomb parts should be inspected carefully after eachuse. Threads on the main cl

41、osure should be checked frequentlyfor wear. Cracked or significantly worn parts should bereplaced. The bomb should be returned to the manufactureroccasionally for inspection and possibly proof firing.11.2.1.3 The oxygen supply cylinder should be equippedwith an approved type of safety device, such a

42、s a reducingvalve, in addition to the needle valve and pressure gage used inregulating the oxygen feed to the bomb. Valves, gages, andgaskets must meet industry safety codes. Suitable reducingvalves and adaptors for 300 to 500 psi (2070 to 3450 kPa)6Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Society Speci

44、from commercial sources ofcompressed gas equipment. The pressure gage shall be checkedperiodically for accuracy.11.2.1.4 During ignition of a sample, the operator must notpermit any portion of his body to extend over the calorimeter.11.3 Preparation of the Chlorine SolutionImmerse thebomb in a cold-

45、water bath, connect it to the firing circuit, andclose the circuit to ignite the sample. Allow the bomb to standin the water bath for not less than 10 min after firing. Removethe bomb from the water bath, invert the bomb and shake forabout 10 min (Note 4). Release the pressure at a slow, uniformrate

46、 so that the pressure is reduced to atmospheric in not lessthan 1 min. Open the bomb and examine the inside for tracesof unburned material or sooty deposits. If any are found,discard the determination and thoroughly wash all parts of thebomb interior before using it again. If no unburned material or

47、sooty deposits are present, rinse the interior of the bomb, thesample capsule, and the interior surface of the bomb cover witha fine jet of hot water and collect the contents and washings ina beaker or flask.NOTE 4Inverting and shaking a heavy, wet, and possibly slipperybomb may present a hazard. Pr

48、ecautions should be taken when performingthis function.12.
