It is intended to aid decision-makers and spill-responders in contingency planning, spillresponse, and training.4.2 Th
9、is guide is not intended as a detailed operationalmanual for the ignition and burning of oil slicks. The guidedoes not cover the feasibility of an in-situ burn, or theevaluation of airborne emissions from a burn.4.3 It is generally accepted that a precise determination ofthe burn effectiveness will
10、not be possible. However, themethodology presented in this guide can be used to provide aconsistent and reasonable estimate.4.4 Burn effectiveness can be reported as total volumeburned or burn efficiency, or both (that is, volume burned ofthat available.)5. Evaluation Approach5.1 For most oils and u
11、nder most conditions, oil slicks burnat a rate of between 2 and 4 mm/min. By accurately observingthe total area of an in-situ burn and the total duration of theburn it is possible to estimate the volume of oil consumed inthe burn.5.2 If it is necessary to estimate the burn effectiveness,defined as t
12、he percentage of oil burned of that available forburning, one must also estimate either: the volume of oilspilled or available for burning; or, the volume of residueremaining after the burn.5.3 In most cases an estimate of the spill volume or of theresidue volume will be much less accurate than that
13、 of thevolume of oil consumed in the burn. If all three componentscan be estimated independently, the calculation procedure canbe refined and the overall accuracy increased.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F20 onHazardous Substances and Oil Spill Response and is the dire

United States15.4 Potential errors are described in Section 8.6. Estimating Volume of Oil Burned6.1 Estimating the volume
16、of oil burned comprises threevariables: burn rate of the oil, burn duration, and burn area.Note that the area actively engaged in burning must beestimated, not simply the total slick area.6.2 The volume of oil burned is calculated as:Volume burnedm3! 5 burn ratemm/min! 3durationminutes!3burn area m2
17、! 30.001 m/mm (1)6.3 Table 1 lists the burning rate for various oils. Thespecified burn rates represent the accepted median values forgiven oil types; the ranges reflect potential variability.6.4 Discontinuities in slicks can occur due to the presence ofice or debris within the burning area. For dis
18、continuous slicks,burn durations should be recorded for discrete portions of theslick.6.5 For slicks of emulsions, heat from the fire may causeemulsion to break, and may lead to variations in burning rate.In this instance, estimates of the burn area should make note ofthe variations in slick area th
19、at is burning with time.6.6 There are a number of methods that can be used to aidin estimating the slick area, including: the use of photographs,video, or output from remote sensing devices; the use of timedoverflights; and reference to objects of known dimensions inthe vicinity (for example, respon
20、se vessels, containmentboom). Hand-held laser range-finders can also be used toestimate lateral slick dimensions.6.7 Fig. 1 and Table 2 (2)3provide data to estimate oil slickarea in a typical catenary-shaped booming configuration basedon the length of the slick within the boom.For example, for the f
21、ollowing conditions:(1) a boom length of 150 metres;(2) towed in a catenary configuration with a swath width of50 metres (that is, a gap ratio of 0.33);(3) with the boom approximately one-quarter full; and(4) a slick length of 17 metres measured up-current of theapex of the boom;(5) the burn area is
22、 estimated to be approximately 530 m2.In using the graph in Fig. 1, the y-axis dimension, that is, thelength of the slick measured up-current of the apex of the boomshould be used. This will lead to better accuracy in that they-axis can be more precisely estimated in most instances andthe estimate o
23、f burn area is less sensitive to small changes inestimating the y-dimension than the x-dimension (slick width).The data in Fig. 1 and Table 2 have been determined only fora gap ratio of 0.33, which is the commonly accepted gap ratiofor effective oil containment.6.8 Fig. 2 shows the conversion of bur
24、n rate from the unitsof mm/min to a more useful litres per square metres per hour(L/m2/h) and barrels per square feet per hour (bbl/ft2/h). Forexample, diesel or light crude has a burn rate of 3.5 mm/min,which equates to an areal burn rate of 210 L/m2/h. This iscalculated as (3.5 mm/min) x (1 L/m2/m
25、m) x (60 min/h).7. Estimating Burn Efficiency7.1 There are two methods of estimating burn efficiency;both methods require an estimate of the volume of oil burned(see 6.2). The first method requires an estimate of the volumeof oil available for burning; the second requires an estimate ofthe volume of
26、 burn residue. Both methods should be used ifpossible to increase confidence in accuracy.7.2 Estimate of effciency using volume available for burn-ing:7.2.1 In many cases it will be difficult to make an accurateestimate of this due to the difficulties in accurately estimatingthe slick thickness and
27、its variation over the slick.7.2.2 If the source of the spill is known, an estimate may bepossible based on such information as the tank size, pumpingrate, and so on.7.2.3 Burn efficiency when using volume available forburning is calculated as:Burn efficiency %!5Svolume of oil burnedvolume available

34、ciency.8.2 Burn RateTable 1 provides average burn rates forvarious petroleum products. These rates are typical averages:where appropriate, ranges of observed burn rates are also listedin Table 1. Note that for most oils the variability within a givenrange is 6 20 % or less. For emulsified crude oil
35、the variabilitymay be much larger.8.3 Burn DurationEstimates of burn duration should bevery accurate relative to other elements of the efficiencyestimate. For example, measured burn durations should beaccurate to within plus-or-minus a few seconds out of tens ofminutes, representing an accuracy of w
36、ithin a few percent orless.8.4 Note that the burn may not be continuous over the entireelapsed time. In such cases, an estimate should be made of themultiple time periods and burn areas to increase the overallaccuracy.8.5 Burn AreaEstimates of the burn area should be accu-rate to within 6 10 % depen

Accuracy of theestimate will be increased if care is taken to document theduration that various a
39、reas are engaged in the burn, which maychange due to variations in tow speed and crosswind, and maydecrease over time as the oil within the boom is consumed.Finally, note that the key to an accurate estimate is to documentthe area of oil that is actually burning rather than the total slickarea.8.6 V
