The work of prepar

10、ing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in li

11、aison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Di

12、rectives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that

13、some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

17、rs naturally in coal. It is an element that can be released during the combustion process.The determination of the total mercury content of coal cannot be accomplished satisfactorily by traditional ashing and digestion procedures because of the volatility of the element.Quantitive recovery can be ac

18、hieved by strict adherence to the procedure set out in this document.Instrumental methods for a more rapid determination of total mercury content are available. If such a method is to be used, it is important to demonstrate that the method is free from bias, when compared with this reference method

19、and will give levels of repeatability and reproducibility which are the same, or better than, those quoted for the reference method (see Clause 10).

The mercur

The 10 % solution shall have a mercury content less than 0,1 g/l.5.4 Mercury standard stock solution, 1 000 g/ml, prepared by dissolving 1,0 g of high purity mercury in 5 ml of 25 % (V/V) nitric acid solution and dilutin

29、g to 1 000 ml.The mercury standard stock solution may also be prepared from commercially available certified mercury solution.Other high purity (99,9 %) mercury salts or oxides may be used with appropriate adjustment of the mass taken.5.5 Mercury standard solution, 0,1 g/ml, prepared by diluting 5,0

30、 ml of mercury standard stock solution (5.4) to 500 ml with water and then diluting 10,0 ml of the intermediate solution to 1 litre with water.This mercury standard solution should be prepared daily.5.6 Potassium permanganate solution, 50 g/l, prepared by dissolving 5 g of potassium permanganate (KM

The ignition wire sha

In particular, the combustion bomb shall be constructed of material that is free from mercury. This can be verified by washing the interior surf

35、aces with dilute nitric acid (50 ml, 10 % V/V), and determining the mercury content of the washings. This shall be 0,01 g per bomb. The combustion bomb shall also be designed so that all liquid combustion products can be completely recovered.WARNING The combustion bomb should be inspected regularly

37、either a closed recirculating system or an open one-pass system.7 Preparation of sampleThe test sample is the general analysis test sample prepared in accordance with ISO 5069-2 or ISO 13909-4 as appropriate. Ensure that the moisture content of the sample is in equilibrium with the laboratory atmosp

38、here, exposing it if necessary, in a thin layer for the minimum time required to achieve equilibrium.Before commencing the determination, mix the equilibrated sample for at least 1 min, preferably by mechanical means.If the results are to be calculated other than on the “air-dried” basis (see Clause

39、 11), then, after weighing the test portion, determine the moisture content of a further portion of the test sample by the method described in ISO 5068-2 as appropriate.8 Oxygen bomb combustion procedure8.1 GeneralClean all internal components of the combustion bomb (the body, cap and electrodes) by

40、 immersion in 10 % nitric acid solution for 5 min followed by thorough washing with water before use. Using paper towels, dry the threads on the combustion bomb body and locking ring. Repeat the washing step between each determination.8.2 Combustion of coalWeigh approximately 1 g of test portion, to

41、 the nearest 0,1 mg, into a pre-ignited crucible.Assemble the ignition system using ignition wire and ignition thread.Pipette 10 ml of water into the base of the combustion bomb and assemble.Charge the bomb with oxygen (5.2) to 3 MPa pressure.Place the assembled combustion bomb in the calorimeter ca

42、n containing 2 litres of water and fire using the ignition/firing station. Allow the combustion bomb to stand in the calorimeter can for 10 min before removal.Dry external surfaces of the bomb thoroughly with paper towel, keeping the bomb upright, before carefully venting the bomb gases over a perio

43、d of 2 min.9 Preparation of test solutionDisassemble the combustion bomb and carefully rinse all internal surfaces, including the crucible, with water, collecting all washings in the bomb.Using a disposable syringe, transfer the bomb washings to a 100 ml volumetric flask containing 10 ml of 10 % nit

44、ric acid solution (5.3). Wash the bomb with water, adding the washings to the volumetric flask. Add 0,5 ml of potassium permanganate solution (5.6) and mix. Dilute to volume with water.Carry out a blank determination following exactly the procedure described above but omitting the coal sample. ISO 2

45、016 All rights reserved 3BS ISO 15237:2016ISO 15237:2016(E)In those cases where the design of the bomb precludes a 1 g test portion being used, a suitable smaller quantity should be taken.NOTE The transfer of the bomb washings by syringe is important since it has been shown that the bomb locking rin

46、g in some calorimeters is a source of mercury contamination which is transferred to the threads of the body. If the bomb washings are poured out in these cases, significant mercury contamination results due to contact between washings and the threads on the bomb body. For calorimeter types initially

47、 shown to give no contamination, the transfer by syringe is not necessary. In every analysis, the documentation for this is achieved by the blank determination.10 Atomic absorption analysis10.1 CalibrationPrepare matrix-matched mercury standards of 3,0 g/l, 5,0 g/l and 10,0 g/l by pipetting 3,0 ml,

48、5,0 ml and 10,0 ml aliquot portions of the 0,1 g/ml mercury standard solution (5.5) into 100 ml graduated flasks, adding 10 ml of 10 % nitric acid solution (5.3) and diluting to volume with water. Add potassium permanganate solution (5.6) dropwise to stabilize the solutions until the permanganate co

For instrument calibration, the absorbance for each matrix-matched solution is plotted against the corresponding concentration. Sample responses are compared with this calibration.NOTE An alternative quantification procedure is the use of standard analyte additions to the final solutions.10.2 Analytical procedureThe calibration solutions prepared in accordance with 10.1, and the test solutions and the blank sol
