1、Designation: D 5258 02 (Reapproved 2007)Standard Practice forAcid-Extraction of Elements from Sediments Using ClosedVessel Microwave Heating1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5258; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the
2、case of revision, the year of last revision. 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 covers the digestion of soils and sedimentsfor subsequent determination o
3、f acid-extractable concentra-tions of certain elements by such techniques as atomic absorp-tion and atomic emission spectroscopy.1.1.1 Concentrations of arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead,magnesium, manganese, nickel, and zinc can be extracted fromthe preceding materials. Other elements may be determine
4、dusing this practice.1.2 The analytical sample is arbitrarily defined as that whichpasses a 10-mesh (approximately 2-mm openings) screen andis prepared according to Practice D 3974.1.3 Actual element quantitation can be accomplished byfollowing the various test methods under other appropriateASTM st
5、andards for element(s) of interest.1.4 The detection limit and linear concentration range foreach element is dependent on the atomic absorption or emis-sion spectrophotometric technique employed and may be foundin the manual accompanying the instrument used.1.5 Before selecting a digestion technique
6、, the user shouldconsult the appropriate quantitation standard(s) for any specialanalytical considerations, and Practice D 3974 for any specialpreparatory considerations.1.6 The extent of extraction of elements from soils andsediments by this method is dependent upon the physical andmineralogic char
7、acteristics of the prepared sample.1.7 The values stated in both inch-pound and SI units are tobe regarded separately as the standard. The values given inparentheses are for information only.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It
8、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.

12、times.4.3 Little or no acids are lost to boiling or evaporation in theclosed digestion vessel so additional portions of acid may notbe required. Increased blank corrections from trace impuritiesin acid are minimized.5. Interferences5.1 No interferences to the digestion of soils and sedimentsusing mi
