Significance and Use4.1 The oxyhalides chlorite, chlorate, and bromate are inorganic disinfection by-products (DBPs) of considerable health riskconcern worldwide. The occurrence of chlorite and chlorate is ass
22、ociated with the use of chlorine dioxide, as well as hypochloritesolutions used for drinking water disinfection. The occurrence of bromate is associated with the use of ozone for disinfection,wherein naturally occurring bromide is oxidized to bromate. Bromide is a naturally occurring precursor to th

Summary of Test Method A9.1 Oxyhalides (chlorite, bromate, and chlorate) and bromide in raw wat
36、er, finished drinking water and bottled water aredetermined by ion chromatography. A sample (200 L) is injected into an ion chromatograph and the pumped eluent (sodiumcarbonate) sweeps the sample through the analytical column set. Here, anions are separated from the sample matrix according totheir r
37、etention characteristics, relative to the anions in the eluent.9.1.1 The separated anions in the eluent stream then pass through a suppressor device, where all cations are exchanged forhydronium ions. This converts the eluent to carbonic acid, thus reducing the background conductivity. This process
38、also convertsthe sample anions to their acid form, thus enhancing their conductivity. The eluent stream then passes through a conductivity cell,where they are detected. A chromatographic integrator or appropriate computer-based data system is typically used for datapresentation.9.2 The anions are id
39、entified based on their retention times compared to known standards. Quantification is accomplished bymeasuring anion peak areas and comparing them to the areas generated from known standards.10. Interferences10.1 Positive errors can be caused by progressive oxidation of residual hypochlorite and/or
40、 hypobromite or hypobromite, orboth, in the sample to the corresponding chlorate and bromate. Furthermore, chlorite can also be oxidized to chlorate, causing5 Hautman, D. P., and Bolyard, M., J.

41、p. 65.D6581 123negative errors for chlorite and positive errors for chlorate. These interferences are eliminated by the sample preservation stepsoutlined in 13.315.3. Chloride present at 200 mg/L and carbonate present at 300 mg/L 200 mg/L can interfere with bromatedetermination. These interferences
42、can be minimized, or eliminated, by the sample pretreatment steps outlined in 13.4. Fluorideand low molecular weight monocarboxylic acids, present at mg/L concentrations, may interfere with the quantitation of chloriteand bromate.11.

44、 low dead-volume switching valve that will allow the loading of a sample into a sample loop andsubsequent injection of the loop contents into the eluent stream.Aloop size of up to 20050 L may be used without compromisingthe resolution of early eluting peaks, such as chlorite and bromate.11.1.3 Guard
45、 ColumnAnion exchange column typically packed with the same material used in the analytical column. Thepurpose of this column is to protect the analytical column from particulate matter and irreversibly retained material.11.1.4 Analytical ColumnAnion exchange column capable of separating the ions of
46、 interest from each other, as well as fromother ions which commonly occur in the sample matrix. The separation shall be at least as good as that shown in Fig. 1Fig. 2. Theuse of 2 mm ID AS9-HC column, in conjunction with a 50 L sample loop, may improve the peak shape for early eluting anions,such as
47、 chlorite and bromate.Conditions of the eluent may vary by column manufacturer.NOTE 1The Analytical Column Set (see 3.2.2) should be able to give baseline resolution of all anions, even for a 20050 L injection containing upto 200 mg/L, each, of common anions, such as chloride, bicarbonate, and sulfa
