1、Designation: D5761 96 (Reapproved 2012)Standard Practice forEmulsification/Suspension of Multiphase Fluid WasteMaterials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5761; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the
2、 year of last 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 practice covers the generation of a single-phasesuspension or emulsion from multiphase samples which are
3、primarily liquid in order to facilitate sample preparation,transfer, and analysis.1.2 This practice is designed to keep a multiphase fluidsample in an emulsified/suspended state long enough to take asingle, composite sample that is representative of the sample asa whole. The sample may reform multip
4、le layers after standing.1.3 The emulsion/suspension generated by following thispractice can be used only for analytical procedures designedfor the total sample and procedures not significantly affected bythe emulsifier or the presence of an emulsion/suspension.1.4 This practice assumes that a repre
5、sentative sample ofnot more than 1 L has been obtained.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is therespon
6、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.

Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 emulsion, na suspension of fine particles or glob-ules, or both, of one or more liquids in another liquid.3.2 Definitions of T
8、erms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 multiphase fluid waste material, na substance ormixture of chemicals that is no longer useful for its originalpurpose that visibly involves a solid and at least one liquidphase or more than one liquid phase without any solid present.4. Summary of Practice4.1 An e
9、mulsifier is added and mixed well with a sample ofmultiphase fluid waste material, to produce a uniform mixturesuitable for subsequent aliquoting. A satisfactory homogeniza-tion has been attained when the sample appears to remain as asingle phase for 30 s or longer.4.2 A calcium sulfonate emulsifier
10、 is used when the originalsample is primarily organic in nature; a polyethylene glycolmonoalky ester is used when the original sample is primarilyaqueous in nature. A blend of the two emulsifiers is used whenthe original sample contains roughly equal volumes of organicand aqueous material.5. Signifi
11、cance and Use5.1 This practice is intended as a solution to the difficulty ofobtaining reproducible test results from heterogeneoussamples.5.2 This practice works best with multilayered liquids, butcan also be applied to samples with solid particles that aresufficiently small in size to be suspended
12、 in an emulsion.5.3 The emulsified/suspended sample can be used for allbulk property testing such as microwave digestion/inductivelycoupled argon plasma (ICAP), ion chromatography, heat ofcombustion, ash content, water, nonvolatile residue, and pH.

Interferences6.1 Not all samples can be emulsif
16、ied, due to varyingchemical reactions with the surfactants. If the emulsion is notstable for at least 30 s after shaking, it may not be suitable fortesting as an emulsion.6.2 Due to their physical composition, some samples are notsuitable for splitting and, as a result, cannot be emulsified if anone
17、mulsified retain is required. For example, excessiveamounts of solids and semisolids or tars do not permit splitting.6.3 In some instances, the amount of sample submitted maynot be sufficient for splitting and, as a result, cannot beemulsified if some unemulsified sample must be retained.6.4 Erroneo
18、us results can be obtained if precautions are nottaken to avoid the loss of volatile material. Do not opencontainers unnecessarily. Results for samples from leaky con-tainers must be marked to indicate that the sample integrity wasnot maintained during shipping/storage.7. Apparatus7.1 Funnel, Splitt

Procedure9.1 Representative samples are to be provided to the labo-ratory using standard techniques such as those described inPractices D4057 or D4177 and EPA/SW846. It is assumed forpurposes of this practice that the size of the sample
21、in thelaboratory is one litre or less. Adjustments in procedure will benecessary for larger volumes.9.2 Vigorously shake multiphase samples by hand, or bymechanical means, for up to 30 s. If within 1 min after shaking,the sample appears to separate and each of the layers consistsof at least 10 % by
22、volume of the total, and if there is asufficient sample available based on subsequent testing require-ments, then the sample is a candidate for the emulsificationprocedure.9.3 (Optional.) If some unemulsified sample is to be re-tained, split the sample into two separate samples using thesplitter fun

24、a sample in a clear glass jar,measure phase height from the inside bottom of the jar, notfrom the bench top, using a ruler held up to the outer verticalside of the jar. Phase height shall be measured while lookingstraight and horizontally at the phase separation.9.4.2 Use a high-intensity lamp to ba
25、cklight the sample andprovide better definition of phases. Short duration applicationof the lamp will not heat the sample.9.5 Select an emulsifier. Select the organic emulsifier forsamples which are greater than 60 % organic and the aqueousemulsifier for samples which are greater than 60 % water. Fo
26、rthe multiphase samples where the organic layer is between 40to 60 %, use an equal mixture of the emulsifiers (equalvolumetric proportions).9.6 Estimate the total volume of sample in millilitres.Multiply this number by 0.025 to determine the grams ofemulsifier to add.
