24、reword This foreword is for information only and is not a part of ANSI*/AWWA B408. I. Introduction. I.A. Background. This standard covers a variety of products based on the chemistry of aluminum salt solutions, where polyaluminum oligomers become the predominant and defining form of the aluminum cat

25、ion. The characteristics of the corresponding anion in these oligomer products, although more commonly entirely chloride, may be instead sulfate or even some ratio of these two anions in combination. There are, additionally, formulations of these products wherein a polymer (organic polyelectrolyte)

26、is blended in with inorganic oligomers to provide enhancements of specific functionalities. This standard will focus on polyaluminum chloride (PACl) productsas they are the predominant presentation of this chemistrycommercially available as liquids in the United States and Canada. This standard cove

27、rs liquid PACl for use in municipal and industrial water supplies. As a note, certain parts of this standard may be used wholly, or in part, to aid the user and producer to define and measure a specific related product chemistry being offered, though only as is appropriate and mutually agreed on bef

28、orehand by both the purchaser and supplier/manufacturer. Given these conditions, it may be necessary for the purchaser to acquire and utilize additional or different information and methodologies from that offered in this standard to allow the proper management of products in this group. Some inorga

29、nic coagulants are mixed with polymers to produce blends. Polyaluminum chloride is a misnomer, however, because these products contain a mixture of polymers (actually aggregates of oligomers) of aluminum chloride hydrox- ide (Chemical Abstract Service CAS No. 1327-41-9) with the empirical formula Al

30、 n(OH) m Cl (3nm)for 0 m 3n. At least the following five CAS numbers, 1327-41-9, 10284-64-7, 14215-15-7, 39290-78-3, and 12042-91-0, have been used for various types of PACl. Basicity (hydroxyl number) refers to the average number of hydroxide ions per aluminum atom in the PACl molecules or m/n. In

31、some PACl products, an anion other * American National Standards Institute, 25 West 43rd Street, Fourth Floor, New York, NY 10036.

The basicity of PAC

33、l products can range from 0 to 2.5, though the basicity should not be 0 if the product is being sold as PACl. The basicity is converted to “percent basic- ity” using the following formula: percent basicity = (OH/Al) 100 3 Where: Al and OH are expressed as moles/liter The values for percent basicity

34、of liquid PACl products can range from about 10 to 83.3. The basicity of the product does not necessarily relate directly to product performance, so the highest basicity may not give the best performance in a particular application. Polyaluminum chloride products contain varying amounts of PACl, the

35、 concentra- tion of which is conventionally expressed as “percent by weight as Al” or “percent as Al.” The range of PACl content in PACl products is about 2.5 to 13 percent as alumi- num (5 to 25 percent as Al 2 O 3 ). Polyaluminum chloride can be commercially manufactured from a number of aluminum-

36、containing raw materials, including aluminum metal, alumina trihydrate, aluminum chloride, aluminum sulfate, and combinations of these. The products can contain by-product salts, such as sodium/calcium/magnesium chloride or sulfate, depending on the manufacturing process. The presence of these salts

37、 is not harmful to product performance or to those handling the product. Recognizing that the purity of PACl can vary with the manufacturing process, the purchaser should ask the supplier for information concerning potential impurities. This standard provides methods for analysis of active PACl expr

38、essed in percent as aluminum (or Al 2 O 3 ), percent basicity, turbidity, and specific gravity. I.B. History. In 1988, the AWWA Standards Committee on Iron Salts, Aluminum Salts, and Related Coagulant Aids organized a subcommittee to prepare a standard for PACl products. The first draft of the stand

39、ard was reviewed in 1989, and the final draft was approved in 1992. The first edition of ANSI/AWWA B408, Standard for Liquid Polyaluminum Chloride, was approved by the AWWA Board of Directors on Jan. 31, 1993. The second edition was approved on June 21, 1998. The third edition was approved on June 1

40、9, 2003. This edition was approved June 20, 2010. Copyright 2010 American Water Works Association. All Rights Reserved.ix I.C. Acceptance. In May 1985, the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) entered into a cooperative agreement with a consortium led by NSF International (NSF) to develop volu

41、ntary third-party consensus standards and a certification program for direct and indirect drinking water additives. Other members of the original consortium included the American Water Works Association Research Foundation (AwwaRF, now Water Research Foundation) and the Conference of State Health an

42、d Environmental Managers (COSHEM). The American Water Works Association (AWWA) and the Association of State Drinking Water Administrators (ASDWA) joined later. In the United States, authority to regulate products for use in, or in contact with, drinking water rests with individual states.* Local age

43、ncies may choose to impose requirements more stringent than those required by the state. To evaluate the health effects of products and drinking water additives from such products, state and local agencies may use various references, including two standards developed under the direction of NSF, NSF

44、/ANSI 60, Drinking Water Treatment ChemicalsHealth Effects, and NSF/ANSI 61, Drinking Water System ComponentsHealth Effects. Various certification organizations may be involved in certifying products in accor- dance with NSF/ANSI 60. Individual states or local agencies have authority to accept or ac

45、credit certification organizations within their jurisdiction. Accreditation of certi- fication organizations may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Annex A, “Toxicology Review and Evaluation Procedures,” to NSF/ANSI 60 does not stipulate a maximum allowable level (MAL) of a contaminant for subs

46、tances not regulated by a USEPA final maximum contaminant level (MCL). The MALs of an unspecified list of “unregulated contaminants” are based on toxicity testing guide- lines (noncarcinogens) and risk characterization methodology (carcinogens). Use of Annex A procedures may not always be identical,

47、 depending on the certifier. ANSI/AWWA B408 addresses additives requirements in Sec. 4.4 of the standard. The transfer of contaminants from chemicals to processed water or the residual solids is becoming a problem of great concern. The language in Sec. 4.4.2 is a recommenda- tion only for direct add

48、itives used in the treatment of potable water to be certified by an accredited certification organization in accordance with NSF/ANSI 60, Drinking Water Treatment ChemicalsHealth Effects. However, users of the standard may opt * Persons outside the United States should contact the appropriate author

Determine additives requirements, including applicable standards. 2. Determine the status of certifications by parties offering to certify products for contact with, or treatment of, drinking water. 3. Determin
