Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover the determination of cyanidesin water. The following test

3、 methods are included:SectionsTest Method ATotal Cyanides after Distillation 12 to 18Test Method BCyanides Amenable to Chlorination2by Difference 19 to 25Test Method CWeak Acid Dissociable Cyanides 26 to 32Test Method DCyanides Amenable to Chlorination without Distilla-tion (Short-Cut Method)33 to 3

4、91.2 Cyanogen halides may be determined separately.NOTE 1Cyanogen chloride is the most common of the cyanogenhalide complexes as it is a reaction product and is usually present whenchlorinating cyanide-containing industrial waste water. For the presenceor absence of CNCl, the spot test method given

5、in Annex A1 can be used.1.3 These test methods do not distinguish between cyanideions and metallocyanide compounds and complexes. Further-more, they do not detect the cyanates.NOTE 2The cyanate complexes are decomposed when the sample isacidified in the distillation procedure.1.4 The cyanide in cyan

6、ocomplexes of gold, platinum,cobalt and some other transition metals is not completelyrecovered by these test methods.1.5 Cyanide from only a few organic cyanides are recov-ered, and those only to a minor extent.1.6 Part or all of these test methods have been usedsuccessfully with reagent water and

7、various waste waters. It isthe users responsibility to assure the validity of the testmethod for the water matrix being tested.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

17、 presence of strong acid,magnesium chloride catalyst, and heat during a 1-h refluxdistillation.4.3 Test Method B, Cyanide Amenable to Chlorination, isbased on chlorinating a portion of the sample under controlledconditions followed by the determination of total cyanide inboth the original and chlori

18、nated samples. Cyanides amenableto chlorination are calculated by difference.4.3.1 This test method can be affected by compounds thatare converted during chlorination to color-producing com-pounds or react with the reagents used, and cause interferencein the procedure employed to determine cyanide i

20、 procedure.4.6 The minimum concentration of cyanide in the absorp-tion solution that can be accurately determined colorimetricallyis 0.005 mg/L, by titration 0.4 mg/L and by selective ionelectrode 0.05 mg/L. Pretreatment including distillation tendsto increase these concentrations to a degree determ

21、ined by theamount of manipulation required and the type of sample.4.7 Round-robin data indicate the following minimum con-centrations: colorimetric 0.03 mg/L; titration 1.0 mg/L; andselective ion electrode 0.03 mg/L.5. Significance and Use5.1 Cyanide is highly toxic. Regulations have been estab-lish

22、ed to require the monitoring of cyanide in industrial anddomestic wastes and in surface waters (Appendix X1).5.2 Test Method D is applicable for natural water and cleanmetal finishing or heat treatment effluents. It may be used forprocess control in wastewater treatment facilities providing itsappli

23、cability has been validated by Test Method B or C.5.3 The spot test outlined inAnnexA1 can be used to detectcyanide and thiocyanate in water or wastewater, and toapproximate its concentration.6. Interferences6.1 Common interferences in the analysis for cyanide in-clude oxidizing agents, sulfides, al

24、dehydes, glucose and othersugars, high concentration of carbonate, fatty acids, thiocyan-ate, and other sulfur containing compounds.6.2 It is beyond the scope of these test methods to describeprocedures for overcoming all of the possible interferences thatmay be encountered.6.3 Separation of the cya

25、nide from interfering substancesprior to electrochemical determination (see 16.5 for ion chro-matography procedure) should be conducted when using TestMethod A-total cyanides after distillation or Test MethodB-cyanides amenable to chlorination by the difference whensulfur, thiocyanate, or other sulf
