1、Designation: D 5198 92 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Practice forNitric Acid Digestion of Solid Waste1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5198; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision

2、. A 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 practice describes the digestion of solid wasteusing nitric acid for the subsequent determination of inorganicconstituents by

3、 argon plasma emission spectroscopy or atomicabsorption spectroscopy.1.2 The following elements may be solubilized by thispractice:aluminum manganeseberyllium mercurycadmium nickelchromium phosphoruscopper vanadiumiron zinclead1.3 This practice is to be used when the concentrations oftotal recoverab

4、le elements are to be determined from a wastesample. Total recoverable elements may or may not be equiva-lent to total elements, depending on the element sought and thesample matrix. Recovery from refractory sample matrices,such as soils, is usually significantly less than total concentra-tions of t

5、he elements present.NOTE 1This practice has been used successfully for oily sludges anda municipal digested sludge standard Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) Sample No. 397. The practice may be applicable to some elementsnot listed above, such as arsenic, barium, selenium, cobalt, magnesium,and c

6、alcium. Refractory elements such as silicon, silver, and titanium arenot solubilized by this practice.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and he

Summary of Practice3.1 A weighed

10、portion of the waste sample is mixed with1 + 1 nitric acid (HNO3) in an Erlenmeyer flask. The flask isheated for2hat90to95C to dissolve the elements of interest.After cooling, the contents of the flask are diluted with reagentwater and filtered, and the filtrate is made up to appropriatevolume for s

11、ubsequent analysis.4. Significance and Use4.1 A knowledge of the inorganic composition of a waste isoften required for the selection of appropriate waste disposalpractices. Solid waste may exist in a variety of forms andcontain a range of organic and inorganic constituents. Thispractice describes a

12、digestion procedure which dissolves manyof the toxic inorganic constituents and produces a solutionsuitable for determination by such techniques as atomic ab-sorption spectroscopy, atomic emission spectroscopy, and soforth. The relatively large sample size aids representativesampling of heterogenous

13、 wastes. The relatively small dilutionfactor allows lower detection limits than most other sampledigestion methods. Volatile metals, such as lead and mercury,are not lost during this digestion procedure. Hydride-formingelements, such as arsenic and selenium, may be partially lost.Samples with total

14、metal contents greater than 5 % may givelow results. The analyst is responsible for determining whetherthis practice is applicable to the solid waste being tested.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D34 on WasteManagement and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D34.01
