4、r subjectedto the sudden release of a relatively large quantity of hydro-carbons that may appear, in pure form or at high concentration,in the influent to the separator. In this case, refer to PracticeD6157.1.3 This practice does not address the determination of theperformance characteristics of an
5、oil/water separator subjectedto a mechanically emulsified influent such as provided by apump.1.4 This practice does not investigate the ability of theseparator to handle debris or suspended solids, that is, grit ortree leaves.1.5 While the effluent may meet code requirements for totaloil and grease
6、content, this practice does not address thepresence of soluble organics, that is, benzene, toluene, ethyl-benzene, and zylene (BTEXs) which may be detected in theeffluent. It also does not make any provisions for the effects ofdetergents, surfactants, soaps, or any water soluble matter (thatis, salt
7、s), or any portion of an essentially insoluble matter thatmay be found in solution on separation. (Effects of certainwater soluble chemicals or solids may be investigated byadding them to the water at predetermined constant concentra-tions.)1.6 In order to estimate the effect of water temperature on
8、the performance of the separator, the tests described in thispractice must be performed at two water temperatures. Theselected temperatures must be at least 10C (18F) apart, withthe temperature ranging from a minimum of 0C (32F) to amaximum of 50C (122F).1.7 This practice does not make any provision
9、s for thevariation of pH or temperature during a test run. Refer toAppendix X1 for further detail.1.8 This practice can be used with a variety of hydrocar-bons. It adopts No. 2 fuel oil with a density2of 845 kg/m3(52.73 lbm/ft3) and a viscosity2of 1.9 to 4.1 centistokes at 40C(104F) and SAE 90 lubri
10、cating oil with a density2of 930kg/m3(58 lbm/ft3) at 15.5C (60F) and a viscosity (see SAEJ313) of 13.5 to 24 centistokes at 100C (212F) as thecomparative testing media. It is understood that the resultsobtained from this practice are only directly applicable to No.2 fuel oil and SAE 90 lubricating o
11、il for the tested concentra-tions and only careful interpolation or extrapolation, or both, isallowed to other hydrocarbons. Low viscosity or high densityhydrocarbons or hydrocarbons that contain a larger fraction ofhighly soluble compounds may need to be tested separately.NOTE 1No extrapolation out
12、side the range of the tested influent oreffluent oil concentrations is allowed as performance may not be linear.Hence, to establish performance at a higher or lower concentration, theseparator shall be tested for that specific condition. In addition, linearitymust be established prior to using linea
13、r interpolation.1.9 Since regulations are based on effluent total hydrocar-bon content, this practice does not set forth any lower limits onoil particle size for the evaluation of separator efficiency.However, a standardized means for mixing oil and water shallbe specified to ensure repeatability. I
14、t must be noted howeverthat smaller particles, having a greater surface area to volumeratio, rise at a slower rate than their larger counterparts. (GuideF933 requires that 20 % of all oil particles be smaller than orequal to 50 m and IMO MEPC 60 (30) does not mention anyparticle size requirements bu
15、t asks the user to avoid emulsioncausing chemicals.)1.10 Although the tests described in this practice intend tosimulate contaminated storm water run-off separation1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D19 on Water andis the direct responsibility of D19.06 on Methods for Analysi

Summary of Practice4.1 The practice evaluates a separators ability to reduce thetotal hydroca
33、rbon content of contaminated run-off. For this, aninfluent is supplied at the separators rated flow for the selectedhydrocarbon content (either 350 or 1000 mg/L). The corre-sponding effluent hydrocarbon content is determined by ob-taining and analyzing grab samples.4.2 The practice also evaluates th
34、e effluent of a separator atrated oil storage capacity in relation to a non-contaminatedinfluent and its corresponding rated flow in order to establishits re-entrainment characteristics.3For referenced ASTM standards, visit the ASTM website, www.astm.org, orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceas

However, the
37、results of thesetests may be extrapolated to smaller or larger size separatorsprovided that applicable geometric and dynamic similitude aremaintained. Where the use of extrapolation is not applicable,that size unit must be subjected to testing.4.4 The flow rate for these tests must equal the manufac
38、tur-ers rated flow for the given separator at the given influentcontamination level and for the selected effluent peak contami-nation concentration.4.5 For the purpose of this test, the water temperatureshould be between 10C (50F) and 21.1C (70F) and the pHof the water between 6 and 9.5. Significanc
39、e and Use5.1 The Clean Water Act promulgated the implementationof water quality standards and contamination limits for a widerange of pollutants including oil and grease. Specifically, theEPA prohibits “the discharges of oil that cause a film or sheenupon or cause discoloration of the surface of the
40、 water.”Several state and local agencies have adopted this statement inaddition to setting concentration limits, that is, 15 mg/Lor even5 mg/L. The purpose of this practice is to evaluate theperformance of a separator in regards to the regulations anduser requirements.5.2 Another purpose of this pra
41、ctice is to establish that aseparator containing oil at its rated capacity would still becapable of meeting the above criteria when subjected torun-off.5.3 This practice is not applicable if the influent to aseparator contained a sudden release as much higher concen-trations would be expected. For t
42、his case, see Practice D6157.5.4 This practice is not applicable if the influent to aseparator is conveyed by a pumping means.5.5 The data generated in this method is valid for theseparators tested only. The results of these tests may beextrapolated to smaller or larger size separators provided that
43、applicable geometric and dynamic similitude are maintained.Where sound engineering method limits the use ofextrapolation, that size unit must be subjected to testing.5.6 The flow rate for all the tests must equal the manufac-turers total rated flow for the given separator at a giveninfluent contamin
44、ation level and for the selected effluent peakcontamination concentration.6. Test Set-Up and Apparatus6.1 Water SupplyThe water supply can be either a watermain, a water reservoir and a pump, or an elevated storage tankcapable of providing the volume and flow rate of waternecessary for a test run as
