18、012 (E) 4 Introduction This method is intended to provide a multi-element digestion of sludge, treated biowaste and soil prior to analysis. It is known that the digestion of environmental samples with nitric acid does not necessarily lead to a complete element breakdown, and the extract from a test

19、sample may not reflect the total concentrations of the target analytes. However, for most environmental applications the result is fit for the purpose. This European Standard is applicable and validated for several types of matrices as indicated in Table 1 (see also Annex A for the results of the va

20、lidation). Table 1 Matrices for which this European Standard is applicable and validated Matrix Materials used for validation Sludge Municipal sludge Biowaste CompostSoil Sludge amended soils WARNING Persons using this European Standard should be familiar with usual laboratory practice. The reagents

21、 used in this European Standard are strongly corrosive and partly very toxic. Safety precautions are absolutely necessary, not only due to the strong corrosive reagents, but also to high temperature and high pressure. The use of laboratory-grade microwave equipment with isolated and corrosion resist

22、ant safety devices is required. Domestic (kitchen) type microwave ovens shall not be used, as corrosion by acid vapours may compromise the function of the safety devices and prevent the microwave magnetron from shutting off when the door is open, which could result in operator exposure to microwave

23、energy. All procedures shall be performed in a fume hood or in closed force-ventilated equipment. By the use of strong oxidising reagents, the formation of explosive organic intermediates is possible, especially when dealing with samples with a high organic content. Do not open pressurized vessels b

24、efore they have cooled down. Avoid contact with the chemicals and the gaseous reaction products. IMPORTANT It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this European Standard be carried out by suitably trained staff. BS EN 16173:2012EN 16173:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard

25、specifies a method for microwave digestion of sludge, treated biowaste and soil using nitric acid. This method is applicable for microwave-assisted nitric acid digestion of sludge, treated biowaste and soils for the following elements: Aluminium (Al), arsenic (As), barium (Ba), beryllium (Be), bismu

26、th (Bi), boron (B), cadmium (Cd), calcium (Ca), cerium (Ce), cesium (Cs), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), dysprosium (Dy), erbium (Er), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), gallium (Ga), germanium (Ge), gold (Au), hafnium (Hf), holmium (Ho), indium (In), iridium (Ir), iron (Fe), lanthanum (La),

27、lead (Pb), lithium (Li), lutetium (Lu), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), mercury (Hg), molybdenum (Mo), neodymium (Nd), nickel (Ni), palladium (Pd), phosphorus (P), platinum (Pt), potassium (K), praseodymium (Pr), rubidium (Rb), rhenium (Re), rhodium (Rh), ruthenium (Ru), samarium (Sm), scandium (Sc)

28、, selenium (Se), silicon (Si), sodium (Na), strontium (Sr), sulphur (S), tellurium (Te), terbium (Tb), thallium (Tl), thorium (Th), thulium (Tm), titanium (Ti), tungsten (W), uranium (U), vanadium (V), ytterbium (Yb), yttrium (Y), zinc (Zn), and zirconium (Zr). This European Standard may also be app

29、licable for the digestion of other elements. Digestion with nitric acid will not necessarily accomplish total decomposition of the sample. The extracted analyte concentrations may not necessarily reflect the total content in the sample. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in

30、part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 16179, Sludge, treated biowaste and soil Gui

31、dance for sample pretreatment EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use Specification and test methods (ISO 3696) 3 Principle A test portion is digested in concentrated nitric acid by means of microwave heating with a suitable laboratory microwave unit. The sample and the nitric acid are plac

32、ed in a fluorocarbon polymer or quartz microwave vessel. The vessel is sealed and heated in the microwave unit. After cooling, the vessel contents are filtered, centrifuged or allowed to settle and the clear solution is then transferred into a volumetric flask and diluted to volume and analysed by t

33、he appropriate measurement method. 4 Interferences and sources of errors Due to the volatility of some compounds care shall be taken that the sample is not heated before the digestion and that any volatile reaction products formed during the digestion do not escape. The container in which the sample

34、 is delivered and stored can be a source of errors. The material shall be chosen according to the elements to be determined; e.g. elemental Hg can penetrate polyethylene walls very fast in both directions. Glass containing e.g. B, Na, K, Al can contaminate samples. A few refractory sample matrix con

35、stituents, such as quartz, silicates, titanium dioxide, alumina and other oxides may not be dissolved. The bound elements are considered non-mobile in the environment and are excluded from most aquatic pollution transport mechanisms. High acid and solute concentrations in the digest that cause inter

36、ferences shall be properly addressed during determination. BS EN 16173:2012EN 16173:2012 (E) 6 Ensure that the complete test portion is brought into contact with the acid mixture in the digestion vessel. There is a potential for vigorous reaction, especially with samples containing volatile or easil

37、y oxidizable species. When digesting a matrix of this type, use no more than 0,1 g sample to begin with. If a vigorous reaction occurs upon addition of nitric acid, allow the sample to pre-digest in the uncapped digestion vessel until the reaction ceases. Heat may be added in this step for safety co

38、nsiderations (for example, the rapid release of carbon dioxide from carbonates, easily oxidizable organic matter). Once the initial reaction has ceased, the sample may continue through the digestion procedure. If the digested solution is filtrated, take care that the filtration procedure does not in

39、troduce contamination. 5 Reagents Use only acids and reagents of recognized analytical grade to avoid high blank values for subsequent analytical measurements. Use a test blank solution throughout the procedure applying all steps with the same amount of acids, but without a sample. 5.1 Water, grade

40、2 as specified in EN ISO 3696 or better. The water for preparation of reagents shall meet the requirements of the subsequent analysis. Verify the purity by performing a blank test. 5.2 Nitric acid, c(HNO3) = 15 mol/l, = 1,4 kg/l. 5.3 Nitric acid, c(HNO3) = 0,5 mol/l; = 1,0 kg/l. 6 Apparatus Usual la

41、boratory apparatus. All glassware and plastics ware shall be adequately cleaned and stored in order to avoid any contamination. Depending on the concentration of the element of interest, a particular caution to the cleaning of the vessels shall be taken. 6.1 Microwave digestion system, corrosion res

42、istant and well ventilated. All electronics shall be protected against corrosion for safe operation. Use a laboratory-grade microwave oven with temperature feedback control mechanisms. The microwave digestion system should be able to control the temperature with an accuracy of 5 C and automatically

43、adjust the microwave field output power within 2 s of sensing. Temperature sensors shall be accurate to 2 C, including the final reaction temperature of (175 5) C. Temperature feedback control provides the primary performance mechanism for the method. Due to the variability in sample matrix types an

44、d microwave digestion equipment (i.e. different vessel types and microwave designs), control of the temperature during digestion is important for reproducible microwave heating and comparable data. The accuracy of the temperature measurement system should be periodically controlled at an elevated te

45、mperature according to the manufactures instructions. If the temperature deviates by more than 2 C from the temperature measured by an external, calibrated temperature measurement system, the microwave temperature measurement system should be calibrated. 6.2 Rotating turntable, with a minimum speed

46、of 3 min1. 6.3 Sample containers, plastics and glass containers are both suitable. All containers shall be adequately acid cleaned and stored in order to avoid any contamination. BS EN 16173:2012EN 16173:2012 (E) 7 6.4 Digestion vessels of microwave transparent and reagent and temperature resistant

47、materials, such as fluorocarbon (e.g. perfluoro alkoxyl alkane (PFA), modified polytetrafluoroethene (PTFE) or quartz. The vessels may contain layers of different microwave transparent materials for strength, durability and safety. The internal volume shall be at least 45 ml, and the vessel shall be

48、 capable of withstanding pressures of at least 3 000 kPa and capable of controlled pressure relief. The inner wall of the vessel shall be inert and shall not release substances to the digest in excess of the purity requirements of the subsequent analysis. The vessel shall be suitable for the safe ap

49、plication in the temperature and pressure range applied. Energy regulation of the microwave digestion system shall be based on the temperature in the digestion solutions. Depending on the construction of the unit used temperature is measured indirectly in every vessel, outside the vessels with optical systems or only in one vessel. All digestion vessels shall be adequately acid cleaned and stored in order to avoid any contamination. NOTE Digestion vessels may be cleaned in e.g. 10 % nitric acid. 6.5 Filter paper, cellul
