Significance and Use5.1 This test method is useful in distinguishing between thepotentially available free cyanide (total cyanide) and the freecyanide actually present.5.2 This test method provides a convenient technique for
17、making on-site free cyanide determinations.6. Interferences6.1 Decomposition of Hexacyanoferrates During Diffusion:6.1.1 This decomposition is virtually eliminated by allow-ing the sample to diffuse in the dark, and by precipitating thehexacyanoferrates with cadmium ion.6.2 Instability of Free Cyani
18、de in EffluentsThe reactivityof free cyanide with such chemicals as aldehydes or oxidizingagents, is not really a method interference. However, becauseof this instability, it is important for the diffusion to begin assoon after sampling as possible. It is beyond the scope of thistest method to list

Perform all manipu-lations in the hood so that any HCN that might volatilize issafely vented.9.1.2 Some of the reagents used in these methods, such ascyanide solutions, are highl
37、y toxic. Dispose of these reagentsand their solutions properly.9.1.3 Do not pipet by mouth.9.2 Operational PrecautionsThis test method requirespractice and manual dexterity. The following practices havebeen found necessary to obtain reliable test results:9.2.1 Keep the samples in the dark because li

The force of the sample ejection aids in the mixingin the microdiffusion cell.9.2.4 Exercise great care during mixing of soluti
39、ons bytilting and rotating the microdiffusion cell to avoid spilling orsplashing liquid from one compartment to another.9.2.5 Make the seal between the microdiffusion cell and lidairtight.9.2.6 It is important to observe the specified time periods inthose steps where such is noted. In particular, ma

Sampling and Sample Preservation10.1 Collect the sample in accordance with Guide D1192a
41、nd Practices D3370.10.2 A satisfactory preservation technique is not available.Reactions between CNand aldehydes, oxidizing agents, orsulfides will continue. However, if the sample cannot beanalyzed immediately, some steps can be taken to slow downthe reactions taking place.10.2.1 Adjust the sample
42、to pH 12 or more. This minimizesCNlosses due to vaporization.10.2.2 Store the samples in the dark to prevent hexacyano-ferrate breakdown.10.2.3 Keep the sample cool (for example, in a refrigerator).11.
