AWWA standards describe minimum requirements and do not contain all of the engineering and administrative information normally contained in specifi- cations. The AWWA standards usually contain options that must be evaluated by the use

4、r of the standard. Until each optional feature is specified by the user, the product or service is not fully defined. AWWA publication of a standard does not constitute endorsement of any product or product type, nor does AWWA test, certify, or approve any product. The use of AWWA standards is entir

5、ely voluntary. This standard does not supersede or take precedence over or displace any applicable law, regulation, or codes of any governmental authority. AWWA standards are intended to represent a consensus of the water supply industry that the product described will provide satisfactory service.

The action becomes effective on the first day of the month following the month of Journal AWWA publication of the official notice. Americ

7、an National Standard An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. An American National Standard is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consumer, and the general public. The existence of an American National Standard do

8、es not in any respect preclude anyone, whether that person has approved the standard or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standard. Ameri- can National Standards are subject to periodic review, and users are cautioned to

9、 obtain the latest editions. Producers of goods made in conformity with an American National Standard are encouraged to state on their own responsibility in advertising and promotional materials or on tags or labels that the goods are produced in conformity with particular American National Standard

This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. ANSI procedures require that action be taken to reaffir

11、m, revise, or withdraw this standard no later than five years from the date of publication.

15、 Dresser however, some states require food-grade material for use in potable water treatment. Depending on its source, ammonium sulfate material has a tendency to cake and arc when stored in bulk. This can be prevented by the addition of a small amount of amorphous silica (0.060.1 percent), a type o

16、f fused silica. For safety precautions, refer to material safety data sheets (MSDS) available from the supplier or manufacturer. I.B. History. The first edition of this standard was prepared by the AWWA Water Purification Division. It was approved as tentative on July 15, 1949, and made standard on

17、May 15, 1953, with the designation of AWWA B400-53. The second edition was prepared by AWWA Committee 7400P and was approved on Jan. 27, 1964, with the designation of AWWA B302-64. The third and fourth editions were prepared by the AWWA Standards Committee on Taste and Odor Control Chemicals and wer

18、e approved on Jan. 25, 1981, and June 22, 1986, respectively. The fifth edition was prepared by the AWWA Standards Committee on Disinfectants and approved on June 17, 1995.

This edition was approved on June 20, 2010. I.C. Acceptance. In May 1985, the US Environmental Protection A

20、gency (USEPA) entered into a cooperative agreement with a consortium led by NSF International (NSF) to develop voluntary third-party consensus standards and a certification program for direct and indirect drinking water additives. Other members of the original consortium included the American Water

21、Works Association Research Foundation (AwwaRF, now Water Research Foundation*) and the Conference of State Health and Environmental Managers (COSHEM). The American Water Works Association (AWWA) and the Association of State Drinking Water Administrators (ASDWA) joined later. In the United States, au

22、thority to regulate products for use in, or in contact with, drinking water rests with individual states. Local agencies may choose to impose requirements more stringent than those required by the state. To evaluate the health effects of products and drinking water additives from such products, stat

23、e and local agencies may use various references, including two standards developed under the direction of NSF, NSF/ANSI 60, Drinking Water Treatment ChemicalsHealth Effects, and NSF/ANSI 61, Drinking Water System ComponentsHealth Effects. Various certification organizations may be involved in certif

24、ying products in accor- dance with NSF/ANSI 60. Individual states or local agencies have authority to accept or accredit certification organizations within their jurisdiction. Accreditation of certi- fication organizations may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Annex A, “Toxicology Review and E

25、valuation Procedures,” to NSF/ANSI 60 does not stipulate a maximum allowable level (MAL) of a contaminant for substances not regulated by a USEPA final maximum contaminant level (MCL). The MALs of an unspecified list of “unregulated contaminants” are based on toxicity testing guidelines (noncarcinog

26、ens) and risk characterization methodology (carcinogens). Use of Annex A procedures may not always be identical, depending on the certifier. ANSI/AWWA B302 addresses additives requirements in Sec. 4.3.4 of the standard. The transfer of contaminants from chemicals to processed water or to residual so

27、lids is becoming a problem of greater concern. The language in Sec. 4.3.4 is a recommenda- tion only for direct additives used in the treatment of potable water to be certified by * Water Research Foundation, 6666 W.

29、s. However, users of the standard may opt to make this certification a requirement for the product. Users of this standard should also consult the appropriate state or local agency having jurisdiction in order to 1. Determine additives requirements, including applicable standards. 2. Determine the s

30、tatus of certifications by parties offering to certify products for contact with, or treatment of, drinking water. 3. Determine current information on product certification. II. Special Issues. This standard has no applicable information for this section. III. Use of This Standard. It is the respons

31、ibility of the user of an AWWA standard to determine that the products described in that standard are suitable for use in the particular application being considered. III.A. Purchaser Options and Alternatives. The following information should be provided by the purchaser. 1. Standard usedthat is, AN

32、SI/AWWA AWWA B302, Standard for Ammonium Sulfate, of latest revision. 2. Quantity of ammonium sulfate required. 3. Whether compliance with NSF/ANSI 60, Drinking Water Treatment ChemicalsHealth Effects, is required. 4. Details of other federal, state or provincial, and local requirements (Sec. 4.1).

33、5. Whether the ammonium sulfate shall contain an anticaking agent (Sec. 4.2.2). 6. Whether optional markings will be required (Sec. 6.1.2). 7. Method of packaging and shipping required (Sec. 6.2). 8. An affidavit of compliance or certified analysis, or both, if required (Sec. 6.3). 9. Whether the pu

34、rchaser will reject product from containers or packaging with missing or damaged seals. The purchaser may reject product from bulk containers or packages with missing or damaged seals unless the purchasers tests of representative samples, conducted in accordance with Sec. 5.2 demonstrate that the pr

35、oduct meets the standard. Failure to meet the standard or the absence of, or irregularities in, seals may be sufficient cause to reject a shipment. 10. Whether alternative security measures have been adopted to replace or aug- ment the security measures set out in Sec. 6.2.3 and 6.2.4. III.B. Modifi

36、cation to Standard. Any modification of the provisions, definitions, or terminology in this standard must be provided by the purchaser. Copyright 2011 American Water Works Association.
