2、st revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination by KarlFischer (KF) titrimetry of total moisture in solid or liquidhazardous w
3、aste fuels used by industrial furnaces.1.2 This test method has been used successfully on numer-ous samples of hazardous waste fuel composed of solvents,spent oils, inks, paints, and pigments. The range of applicabil-ity for this test method is between 1.0 and 100 %; however, thisevaluation was limi
4、ted to samples containing approximately 5to 50 % water.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is therespon
5、sibility 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 An amount of solvent (see 7.3) sufficient to immerse theelectrode in the titration flask fully (see Note 1) is titrated todryness as explained in 9.1, a
7、nd the Karl Fischer reagent factoris determined by titration of measured amounts of water. Aweighed portion of the sample is dissolved in KF solvent andtitrated with reagent to dryness. If solid material interferes (see5.3) with the electrode or does not dissolve sufficiently, anextraction using KF
8、solvent is performed prior to introductioninto the titration flask. The total moisture in the sample is thendetermined. The final total moisture percent is an average oftwo trials for each sample.3.2 The contents of the titration flask may be retained andused for additional analyses. The contents of
9、 the titration flaskwill need to be emptied and replaced with new solvent whenthe capacity of the flask is nearly exhausted or when solidmaterial affects the sensing by the electrode.4. Significance and Use4.1 The determination of total moisture is important forassessing the quality of fuels. Water
10、content will affect theheating value of fuels directly and can contribute to instabilityin the operation of an industrial furnace. Additionally, highwater contents can present material handling and storageproblems during winter months or in cold environments.5. Interferences5.1 A small number of oxi
11、dants such as ferric and chromatesalts can oxidize iodide and may produce artificially lowresults.5.2 Certain reductants oxidized by iodine such asmercaptans, thioacetate, thiosulfate, stannous chloride,sulfides, hydroquinone, and phenylenediamines can consumeiodine and may cause artificially high r
12、esults. Basic materialssuch as hydroxides, oxides, and inorganic carbonates maycause artificially high results by water-forming reactions.5.3 Some types of solid material found in waste-derived fuelmay interfere with the electrode by blocking its contact withthe solvent. Depending on the nature of t
13、he solid material,artificially high or low results can occur.6.

The use of a strictly generalpurpose solvent is not acceptable because of the potential ofobtaining artificially high results from water-forming reactionsby chemicals with active carbonyl groups.7.4 Karl Fischer Reagen
21、tThe reagent should have astandard titer value of 5 mg H2O/mL reagent and be listed asbeing compatible with the solvent system.8. Sample8.1 Because stratification or layering of liquid samples ispossible, the laboratory sample should be mixed thoroughly byshaking prior to withdrawing a portion for t
22、esting. Stronglymulti-phasic samples should have each layer analyzed sepa-rately and the total moisture percent of the sample calculated asa weighted average. Solid samples should be mixed thoroughlyby shaking or stirring, depending on the physical characteris-tics of the sample.9. Calibration and S

Precision and Bias411.1 PrecisionThe precision
38、 estimates are based on aninterlaboratory study in which operators in six different labo-ratories analyzed in duplicate, on separate days, five samples ofhazardous waste fuel containing between 13 and 32 % water.The results were analyzed statistically in accordance withPractice E691.11.1.1 Repeatabi
39、lity (Within Laboratory)The coefficientof variation of results (each the average of duplicatedeterminations), obtained by the same analyst on differentdays, has been estimated to be 1.3 % relative at 30 degrees offreedom. Therefore, the results of two properly conductedtests, by the same operator on
40、 the same sample, should notdiffer by more than 3.6 % of their average.11.1.2 Reproducibility (Between Laboratories)The coeffi-cient of variation of results (each the average of duplicatedeterminations), obtained by analysts in different laboratories,has been estimated to be 4.3 % relative at 5 degr
41、ees offreedom. Therefore, the results of properly conducted tests, onidentical samples of the same material, by two differentlaboratories, should not differ from each other by more than11.9 % of their average.11.2 BiasThe bias of this test method has not beendetermined because there are no recognize
