21、 to sampling and analysis of atmospheres, see Guide D3614.4. Summary of Practice4.1 A known volume of gaseous sample is bubbled through an impinger containing 0.1M sodium hydroxide solution utilizinga calibrated pumping system. Particulates that may pass through the impinger are captured on a glass
22、fiber filter then recombinedback into the impinger solution prior to analysis. Because HCN is soluble in aqueous solutions, it may be present in water dropletsformed from either a wet scrubber system or condensation in the stack. Because of this, samples that contain moist air should besampled near
23、isokinetic conditions.4.2 During the sampling process, hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is converted to cyanide ion (CN-) in the sodium hydroxide solution.The CN- is analyzed with a flow injection analysis (FIA) system described in Test Method D6888 or with a suitable analyticalmethod such as ion chromatograp
24、hy described in Test Methods D2036.4.2.1 Colorimetric and ion selective electrode methods, also described in Test Methods D2036 can be used for screeningpurposes.4.3 The concentration of HCN in the atmosphere or stack is calculated as described in 9.6.5. Significance and Use5.1 Hydrogen cyanide is h
25、ighly toxic. In relatively low quantities, hydrogen cyanide can cause asphyxia and death.5.2 The National Fire Protection Association has assigned a flammability rating of 4 (severe fire hazard) to hydrogen cyanide.6.

26、o collect samples should be able to accurately pump from 0.1-L/min to15-L/min or at the desired flow rate. Personal industrial hygiene sampling pumps or high volume sampling pumps may be utilized.More than one sample can be collected with a single pump using a manifold with flow control valves. The
27、system should becalibrated as described in Practice D5337 or using a suitable commercially available calibrator.6.1.2 Impinger Sample Collection VesselsStandard mini or midget impingers with standard tip. Greenberg-Smith impingersequipped with a standard tip with 500-mL capacity may be used when lar
28、ger flow rates are desired. Impinger connections shouldconsist of leak free ground glass joints to avoid the loss of HCN during sampling and should be free of any silicone grease. Theuse of a single impinger has shown to yield an average of 97 % efficiency in combustion effluents; however, higher ef
29、ficienciesare possible using additional impingers in series. Without prior knowledge of the atmosphere, it is recommended to use a backupimpinger to determine if breakthrough occurs. Test each impinger for cyanide as a separate sample in order to demonstrate captureefficiency; mathematically combine
30、 the results by adding the observed concentrations.6.1.3 Sample Collection Tubing and ProbesCollection tubing and probes should be constructed of inert material such PTFEor PTFE-lined stainless steel. Vinyl tubing can be used in the sample train where flexible tubing is necessary, but theaforementio
31、ned are preferred. The sample lines should be heated at 120 6 5C when sampling stack emissions in moist air in orderto prevent condensate from forming in the sample train.D7295 1826.1.4 Glass Fiber FiltersType A/E, 1 m binder free borosilicate glass fiber filter and cassette assembly cartridge for a

It is recommended to use 13-mm filters for mini-impingers and 47-mmfilters for Greenberg-Smith impingers.6.1.5 Dup
33、licate and Matrix Spike Sample TrainsIt is recommended to setup duplicate impingers to evaluate precision. Inaddition, a second set of impingers can be fortified with a known amount of cyanide (see 8.11) to evaluate recovery. Fig. 1 showsan example of such a system.6.1.6 ThermometerMeasure the tempe

(WarningBecause of the toxicity of cyanide, great care must be exercised in its handling.Acidification of cyanide solutions produces toxic hydrocyanic acid (HCN).All manipulations must be done in the hood so that anyHCN gas that might escape is safely vented.)
43、9. Procedure9.1 Stack Evaluation (Flow Through Systems):9.1.1 Determine the velocity of the stack as described in Test Method D3154 or U.S. EPA Method 2.49.1.2 Because HCN is soluble in aqueous solutions, it may be present in water droplets formed from either a wet scrubbersystem or condensation in
44、the stack. Because of this, samples that contain moist air should be sampled near isokinetic conditions.To determine if the moisture in the stack is saturated, test with the wet bulb/dry bulb procedure described in Test Method E337or estimate the moisture content by U.S. EPA Method 4.59.1.3 If isoki
45、netic sampling is required, see Test Methods D3685/D3685M or U.S. EPA Method 56 to determine the probediameter and sampling flow rate. This flow rate will be maintained during the entire sampling event.9.2 Open and Closed Chamber Systems (Non-Flow Through Systems):9.2.1 When samples are collected fr
46、om workplace monitoring areas or closed chamber combustion devices, the sampling rate(which will determine the volume of sample collected) should be selected based on the expected concentration of HCN or therequired detection limit.9.2.2 Since open and closed chamber systems are not flow dependent (
47、that is, there is no measurable flow) isokinetic samplingis not possible. Adequate sampling rates and sampling times should be used to collect a representative sample. When comparingcombustion emissions from various materials, it is recommended to keep the sampling rate constant for each test burn.9
48、.3 Sampling:9.3.1 Assemble the sample train with an impinger that contains a known volume of the impinger solution (0.1 M NaOH). Thevolume of impinger solution will depend on the size of impinger. It is recommended to use 100 mL of the impinger solution whenusing Greenberg-Smith impingers or 20 mLof
49、 impinger solution when using mini-impingers. Connect a glass fiber filter (see 6.1.4)between each impinger and the pumping system. The filter will capture any fine particulate that passes through the impinger andwill protect the pumping system and valves.NOTE 1This practice is primarily used to determine the concentration of HCN and any particulate cyanides that are easily dissociated into freecyanide. To specifically determine the particulate cyanides, a prefilter can be placed prior to the impinger(s). After sampling, this filter and the capturedsolids
