30、k density packed shall be in the range of 1 950 kg/m3to 2 250 kg/m3. 6 Chemical properties This European Standard specifies the minimum purity requirements for garnet used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depe

31、nding on the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to relevant authorities. BS EN 12910:2012EN 12910:2012 (E) 7 Users of this product should check the national regulations in order to clarify wheth

32、er it is of appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, contents of other impurities and additives used in the products not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these

33、are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials lead to significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. The chemical composition vari

34、es with the mineralogical form. Typical data are given in Table A.1. NOTE 1 Because of the nature of the occurrence and production of garnet, a small proportion of other minerals, in particular silica sand and ilmenite, can be present in the commercial product. After filling, washing and commissioni

35、ng of a filter system producing drinking water, garnet should not increase the concentrations of chemical parameters (see 1). NOTE 2 Water extractable substances, determined in accordance with the method for granular materials given in EN 12902, can be used to estimate the leaching of the chemicals

36、specified in EN 12902. 7 Specific properties Garnet is a non-reactive high density filtration and support medium. It is used specifically because of its high density. 8 Test methods 8.1 Sampling Prepare the laboratory sample(s) required by the relevant procedures described in EN 12902. 8.2 Analysis

37、8.2.1 Particle size distribution The particle size distribution shall be determined in accordance with EN 12902. 8.2.2 Bulk density loose The bulk density loose shall be determined in accordance with EN 12902. 8.2.3 Bulk density packed The bulk density packed shall be determined in accordance with E

38、N 12902. 9 Labelling, transportation and storage 9.1 Means of delivery Garnet shall be delivered in bags, semi-bulk containers, or bulk. In order that the purity of the product is not affected, the means of delivery shall not have been used previously for any different product or it shall have been

39、specially cleaned and prepared before use. BS EN 12910:2012EN 12910:2012 (E) 8 9.2 Labelling in accordance with the EU legislation 1)Garnet is not listed within Annex VI of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 at the date of publication of this European Standard. The legislation 2, and its amendments for th

40、e purposes of its adaptation to technical and scientific progress contains a list of substances classified by the EU. Substances not listed in this regulation should be classified on the basis of their intrinsic properties according to the criteria in the regulation by the person responsible for the

41、 marketing of the substance. NOTE Additional national regulations may apply to the labelling of this product. 9.3 Transportation regulations and labelling Garnet is not classified as dangerous product for road, rail, sea and air transportation. Garnet is not listed under a UN Number 2). 9.4 Marking

42、The marking shall include the following: name “Garnet“, trade name and grade; net mass; name and the address of supplier and/or manufacturer; statement “This product conforms to EN 12910“. 9.5 Storage (long term stability) Garnet can be stored for an unlimited period of time. 1) See 2. 2) United Nat

43、ions Number. BS EN 12910:2012EN 12910:2012 (E) 9 Annex A (informative) General information on garnet A.1 Origin A.1.1 Raw material Garnet exists in nature in six main varieties of which only two forms are generally used as filtration and supporting materials: almandite garnet and andradite garnet. B

44、oth these varieties occur as massive rock deposits and also as alluvial sands in both geological and modern beach deposits. Garnet rarely occurs as a single pure variety: the different forms often grade into each other with some replacement of the main metallic elements by minor ones. For this reaso

45、n, the analyses of the same type of garnet from different deposits will vary. A.1.2 Manufacturing process Garnet is produced by mining and crushing rock deposits, by quarrying geological alluvial deposits or by collecting alluvial material deposited on modern beaches. The garnet is separated from ot

46、her constituents such as silica and heavy minerals, and sieved to produce specific particle size ranges. A.2 Typical properties A.2.1 Chemical composition Table A.1 shows the range of composition of the two main types of garnet used as filtering and supporting materials. Almandite and andradite garn

47、ets can usually be distinguished by their calcium and aluminium contents and by their densities. Table A.1 Typical chemical composition Parameter Typical value in mass fraction % Almandite Andradite SiO232 to 42 32 to 42 Al2O315 to 25 0 to 15 FeO 20 to 40 0 to 15 Fe2O30 to 15 20 to 35 TiO20 to 5 0 t

48、o 5 CaO 0 to 5 20 to 38 MgO 0 to 15 0 to 5 MnO 0 to 5 0 to 5 The above analyses are typical of the two types of garnet but analyses can vary depending on the deposit. Mineralogical and petrological analyses can give additional information. BS EN 12910:2012EN 12910:2012 (E) 10 A.2.2 Mechanical streng

49、th The mechanical strength of garnet is high. Abrasion products consist of dust and small particles of material. They are formed during transportation, filling, and washing. Abrasion products are not completely removed by washing. The existing methods for determination of abrasion do not lead to exact results regarding behaviour of filter media during operation. They can be used only for comparison of different filter media. A.2.3 Examples of particle size distribution Examples of particle size distr
