23、s. IMPORTANT It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this European Standard be carried out by suitably trained staff. DIN EN 15933:2012-11EN 15933:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of pH within the range pH 2 to pH 12 in a suspens
24、ion of sludge, treated biowaste or soil in either water (pH-H2O), or a 0,01 mol/l calcium chloride solution (pH-CaCl2). This European Standard is applicable to sludge, treated biowaste and fresh or air-dry soil samples. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normati
25、vely referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 16179, Sludge, treated biowaste and soil Guidance for sample
26、pretreatment EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use Specification and test methods (ISO 3696) 3 Principle The pH is measured in a suspension of a test portion which is made up in 5 times its volume of either water or a 0,01-mol/l-solution of calcium chloride. NOTE To make the procedure gen
27、erally applicable to all types of sludge, treated biowaste and soil samples, a volume fraction ratio is chosen because then all types of samples can be treated in the same way. For the purpose of this standard, taking the required volume of test portion with a measuring spoon is sufficiently accurat
28、e. 4 Interferences In samples with a high content of charged particles (e.g. organic matter, clay) the suspension effect can modify the potential difference between the electrodes, and thereby have an influence on the recorded pH value. This problem is minimized by gentle stirring of the suspension.
29、 For calcareous material, carbon dioxide may be absorbed by the suspension, which makes it difficult to reach an equilibrium value. Other sources of error are associated with materials containing sulfidic minerals or volatile acids. 5 Reagents Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade, unless
30、 otherwise specified. 5.1 Water, grade 2 as specified in EN ISO 3696. The water shall have a specific electric conductivity 0,2 mS/m at 25 C, and pH 5,6. 5.2 Calcium chloride solution, c(CaCl2) = 0,01 mol/l. Dissolve 1,47 g calcium chloride dihydrate (CaCl2 2 H2O) in water (5.1) and dilute to 1 000
31、ml. This solution may be stored for several months in a refrigerator in a closed volumetric flask or other type of closed glass vessel. DIN EN 15933:2012-11EN 15933:2012 (E) 6 5.3 Buffer solution, for calibration of the pH-meter. Use at least two of the following buffer solutions for calibration. Co
32、mmercially available buffer solutions of similar or equivalent pH may also be used. Freshly prepared, the buffer solutions 5.3.1, 5.3.2 and 5.3.3 are stable for one month when stored in polyethylene bottles. 5.3.1 Buffer solution pH = 4,00, at 20 C. Dissolve 10,21 g potassium hydrogen phthalate (C8H
33、5O4K) in water (5.1) and dilute to 1 000 ml. Potassium hydrogen phthalate shall be dried before use for 2 h at (120 5) C. 5.3.2 Buffer solution pH = 6,88, at 20 C. Dissolve 3,39 g potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH2PO4) and 3,53 g disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2HPO4) in water (5.1) and dilute to 1
34、000 ml. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate shall be dried before use for 2 h at (120 5) C. 5.3.3 Buffer solution pH = 9,22, at 20 C Dissolve 3,80 g disodium tetraborate decahydrate (Na2B4O7 10 H2O) in water (5.1) and dilute to 1 000 ml. NOTE Disodium tetraborate decahydrate may lose water of crystalliza
35、tion when stored for a long time. 6 Apparatus 6.1 pH-meter, readable to two decimal points. The device shall allow calibration of the pH-electrode for zero and the slope of the function. A normalisation to the standard temperature (25 C) shall be applied. 6.2 Combined glass electrode, pH/temperature
36、 combination electrode consisting of a measurement sensor and a temperature sensor. 6.3 Shaking device 6.4 Measuring spoon 6.5 Bottle, polyethylene (PE) or glass with tightly fitting cap or stopper. 7 Sample pretreatment Pretreat the samples according to EN 16179, if not otherwise specified. For tre
37、ated biowaste particle sizes can be between 10 mm and 40 mm. Therefore, treated biowaste samples are measured without pretreatment. Liquid sludge is measured directly without pretreatment. DIN EN 15933:2012-11EN 15933:2012 (E) 7 8 Procedure 8.1 Preparation of a suspension For solid samples take a te
38、st portion of at least 5 ml from the test sample using a measuring spoon (6.4). Place the test portion in a bottle (6.5). Add water (5.1) or calcium chloride solution (5.2) to a volume which is 5 times the volume of the test portion. For treated biowaste the procedure and volume ratio (1:5) is the s
39、ame, except that at least 60 ml sample volume is added to 300 ml of either water or calcium chloride solution. For liquid sludge the suspension is prepared without the addition of water. Measurements in liquid sludge shall be made directly in the liquid suspension. Shake or mix the suspension for (6
40、0 10) min using a shaking device. Allow the suspension to settle for at least 1 h, but not longer than 3 h. NOTE For soils with high contents of calcium carbonate and/or magnesium carbonate the equilibration time can be longer than 3 h. Ingress of air during standing after shaking should be avoided.
41、 8.2 Calibration of the pH-meter Adjust and calibrate the pH-meter (6.1) as specified in the manufacturers instructions, using the buffer solutions (5.3) at (20 2) C. NOTE Temperature compensation can be used when measuring the sample. Depending on the expected pH-range start the calibration of the
42、pH-meter with buffer solution pH 6,88 (5.3.2) and use then either buffer solution pH 4,00 (5.3.1) for acidic suspensions or buffer solution pH 9,22 (5.3.3) for alkaline suspensions. Commercially available standards within the same pH range may also be used. 8.3 Measurement of the pH Measure the pH i
43、n the suspension at (20 2) C immediately after or whilst being stirred. The stirring should be at such a rate to achieve a reasonably homogenous suspension of the particles, but entrainment of air should be avoided. 9 Expression of results The results of the pH determinations should be reported to o
44、ne decimal place. 10 Precision The performance characteristics of the method have been evaluated, see A.2. DIN EN 15933:2012-11EN 15933:2012 (E) 8 11 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following information: a) a reference to this European Standard (EN 15933); b) complete identif
45、ication of the sample; c) sample preparation (e.g. fresh or air-dried); d) the solution used to make the suspension: water or CaCl2solution; e) expression of results, according to Clause 9; f) any details not specified in this European Standard or which are optional, as well as any factor which may
