15、 determin-able by the digestion method that is included in these testmethods.4. Significance and Use4.1 Elemental constituents in potable water, receiving water,and wastewater need to be identified for support of effectivepollution control programs. Test Methods A, B, and C providethe techniques nec

16、essary to make such measurements.4.2 Nickel is considered to be relatively nontoxic to manand a limit for nickel is not included in the EPA NationalInterim Primary Drinking Water Regulations.6The toxicity ofnickel to aquatic life indicates tolerances that vary widely andthat are influenced by specie

17、s, pH, synergistic effects, and otherfactors.4.3 Nickel is a silver-white metallic element seldom occur-ring in nature in the elemental form. Nickel salts are solubleand can occur as a leachate from nickel-bearing ores. Nickelsalts are used in metal-plating and may be discharged tosurface or ground

18、waters.5. Purity of Reagents5.1 Reagent grade chemicals shall be used in all tests.Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended that all reagents shallconform to the specifications of the Committee on AnalyticalReagents of the American Chemical Society where suchspecifications are available.7Other gra

19、des may be used, pro-vided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficientlyhigh purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy ofthe determination.5.2 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, referencesto water shall be understood to mean reagent water conformingto Specificatio

20、n D 1193, Type I. Other reagent water types maybe used, provided it is first ascertained that the water is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening thebias and precision of the determination. Type II water wasspecified at the time of the round-robin testing of this testmethod.6

21、. Sampling6.1 Collect the sample in accordance with Practice D 1066or Practices D 3370, as applicable.6.2 Samples shall be preserved with HNO3(sp gr 1.42) to apH of 2 or less immediately at the time of collection, normallyabout 2 mL/L. If only dissolved nickel is to be determined, thesample shall be

22、 filtered through a 0.45-m membrane filterbefore acidification. The holding time for samples may becalculated in accordance with Practice D 4841.TEST METHOD AATOMIC ABSORPTION, DIRECT7. Scope7.1 This test method covers the determination of dissolvedand total recoverable nickel and has been used succ

23、essfullywith reagent water, tap water, river water, lake water, groundwater, a refinery effluent, and a wastewater.7.2 This test method is applicable in the range from 0.1 to10 mg/L of nickel. The range may be extended upward bydilution of the sample.8. Summary of Test Method8.1 Nickel is determined

24、 by atomic absorption spectropho-tometry. Dissolved nickel is determined by aspirating thefiltered sample directly with no pretreatment. Total recoverablenickel is determined by aspirating the sample followinghydrochloric-nitric acid digestion and filtration. The samedigestion procedure is used for

25、cadmium (Test MethodsD 3557), chromium (Test Methods D 1687), cobalt (Test Meth-ods D 3558), copper (Test Methods D 1688), iron (Test Meth-ods D 1068), lead (Test Methods D 3559), manganese (TestMethods D 858), and zinc (Test Methods D 1691).9. Interferences9.1 Sodium, potassium, sulfate, and chlori

26、de (9000 mg/Leach), calcium, magnesium and iron (4000 mg/L each), nitrate(2000 mg/L), and cadmium, lead, copper, zinc, cobalt, andchromium (10 mg/L each) do not interfere.NOTE 1Background correction by techniques such as a continuumsource, nonabsorbing lines, or chelation-extraction, may be necessar

27、y forlow levels of nickel for some types of water. Instrument manufacturersinstructions for use of the specific correction technique should befollowed.10. Apparatus10.1 Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer, for use at 232.0nm.NOTE 2The manufacturers instructions should be followed for allinstrumental

28、 parameters. Wavelengths other than 232.0 nm may be used ifthey have been determined to be equally suitable.10.2 Nickel Hollow-Cathode LampMultielement hollow-cathode lamps are available and also have been found satis-factory.10.3 Pressure-Reducing ValvesThe supplies of fuel andoxidant shall be main

Reagents and Materials11.1 Hydrochloric Acid (sp gr 1.19)Concentrated hydro-chloric acid (HCl).NOTE 3If a high reagent blank is obtained, distill the HCl or use aspectrograde acid.NOTE 4

30、When HCl is distilled, an azeotropic mixture is formed (;6NHCl). Therefore, whenever concentrated HCl is used in the preparation ofreagents or in the procedure, use twice the volume of the distilled HCl.6EPA Publication No. EPA-570/9-76-003 was originally published in 1976, andamended in 1980.

Quality Control16.1 In order to be certain that analytical values obtaine

45、dusing these test methods are valid and accurate within theconfidence limits of the test, the following QC procedures mustbe followed when analyzing nickel.16.2 Calibration and Calibration Verification16.2.1 Analyze at least four working standards containingconcentrations of nickel that bracket the

46、expected sampleconcentration, prior to analysis of samples, to calibrate theinstrument. The calibration correlation coefficient shall beequal to or greater than 0.990. In addition to the initialcalibration blank, a calibration blank shall be analyzed at theend of the batch run to ensure contaminatio
