1、Designation: D 3173 03Standard Test Method forMoisture in the Analysis Sample of Coal and Coke1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3173; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A

2、 number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of moisture inthe analysis sample of coal or coke. It is used for calculatingother analytic

3、al results to a dry basis. When used in conjunc-tion with the air drying loss as determined in accordance withMethod D 2013 or Practice D 346, each analytical result can becalculated to an as-received basis:1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated w

4、ith its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method3.1 Moisture is determined by establishing the loss inweight o

6、f the sample when heated under rigidly controlledconditions of temperature, time and atmosphere, sampleweight, and equipment specifications.4. Significance and Use4.1 Moisture as determined by this test method is used forcalculating other analytical results to a moisture free basisusing procedures i

7、n Practice D 3180. Moisture percent deter-mined by this test method may be used in conjunction with theair-dry moisture loss determined in Method D 2013 and TestMethod D 3302 to determine total moisture in coal. Totalmoisture is used for calculating other analytical results to “asreceived” basis usi

8、ng Practice D 3180. Moisture, ash, volatilematter, and fixed carbon percents constitute the proximateanalysis of coal and coke.5. Analysis Sample5.1 The analysis sample is that sample which has beenpulverized to pass 250-m (No. 60) sieve as prepared inaccordance with Practice D 346 or Method D 2013.

9、6. Apparatus6.1 Drying Oven, for coal samples:6.1.1 For determining the moisture of coal, the oven shall beso constructed as to have a uniform temperature in all parts,have a minimum of air space, and be capable of temperatureregulation between the limits of 104 and 110C. It may be ofthe form shown

10、in Fig. 1. Provision shall be made for renewingthe preheated air in the oven at the rate of two to four times aminute, with the air dried as defined in 7.1.6.1.2 In the oven shown in Fig. 1, the door should contain ahole of approximately 3.2 mm (18 in.) in diameter near thebottom to permit a free fl

11、ow of air through the oven space.6.2 Drying Oven, for coke samples. For determining themoisture of coke, an ordinary drying oven with openings fornatural air circulation and capable of temperature regulationbetween limits of 104 and 110C may be used.6.3 Capsules, with covers.Aconvenient form, which

12、allowsthe ash determination to be made on the same sample, is aporcelain capsule, 22 mm (78 in.) in depth and 44 mm (134 in.) in diameter, or a fused silica capsule of similar shape. Thesecapsules shall be used with a well-fitting flat aluminum cover,illustrated in Fig. 2. Platinum crucibles or glas

13、s capsules withground-glass caps may also be used. They should be as shallowas possible, consistent with convenient handling.7. Reagents7.1 Dry AirAir used to purge the drying oven should bedried to a moisture content of 1.9 mg/L or less. (Dewpoint 10C or less.) Any desiccant or drying method capabl

14、eof achieving this degree of dryness is suitable.7.2 DesiccantsMaterials suitable for use in the desiccatormay be chosen from the following:7.2.1 Anhydrous Calcium Sulfate (0.004 mg/L).7.2.2 Silica Gel.7.2.3 Magnesium Perchlorate (0.0005 mg/L).1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Comm

Values inparentheses ( ) are literature va

Magnesium perchlorate is a strong oxidantand can react violently with organic materials.)8. Procedure for Sample Passing a

18、250-m (No. 60) Sieve8.1 Heat the empty capsules under the conditions at whichthe sample is to be dried, place the stopper or cover on thecapsule, cool over a desiccant for 15 to 30 min, and weigh. Dipout with a spoon or spatula from the sample bottle approxi-mately1gofthesample. Put this quickly int

19、o the capsule,close, and weigh at once to the nearest 60.1 mg.8.2 An alternative procedure for weighing the sample (moresubject to error) is as follows: After transferring an amount ofthe sample slightly in excess of 1 g, bring to exactly1ginweight (60.5 mg) by quickly removing the excess weight oft

20、he sample with a spatula. The utmost dispatch must be used tominimize the exposure of the sample until the weight isdetermined.8.3 After removing the covers, quickly place the capsules ina preheated oven (at 104 to 110C) through which passes acurrent of dry air. (The current of dry air is not necess

21、ary forcoke.) Close the oven at once and heat for 1 h. Open the oven,cover the capsules quickly, cool in a desiccator over desiccant,and weigh as soon as the capsules have reached room tempera-ture.8.4 Use the percentage of moisture in the sample passing a250-m (No. 60) sieve to calculate the result

22、s of the otheranalyses to a dry basis.9. Calculations9.1 Calculate the percent moisture in the analysis sample asfollows:Moisture in analysis sample, % 5 A 2 B!/A 3 100 (1)where:A = grams of sample used andB = grams of sample after heating.10.
