Sampling8.1 Collect the sample in accordance with Practices D3370.8.2 Conduct the test immediately following collection of thesamples.9. ProcedureNOTE 3The area used for the test must not be in direct sunli
36、ght; testsshould be run at the same temperature at which chlorination will be carriedout. The temperature of the water just prior to, or immediately after,chlorination must not exceed 50C.9.1 Transfer 500 mL portions of sample to separate 1000mL beakers.NOTE 4The number of aliquots required to deter
37、mine chlorine re-quirement or demand is left to the judgment of the analyst. It will dependupon the degree of familiarity that the analyst has with the water beingtested as well as other variables.NOTE 5One of two different sources of chlorine can be used in thechlorine addition, either chlorine wat
38、er or sodium hypochlorite solution.In general, the type of chlorine that is used in the process should be usedin the test. Chlorine water will tend to lower the pH of the water whilesodium hypochlorite solution will tend to raise the pH.9.2 If chlorine water is used for chlorination, add theestimate
39、d maximum amount of chlorine (as chlorine water) toone of the sample aliquots. If sodium hypochlorite solution isused for chlorination, add the estimated minimum amount ofchlorine (as sodium hypochlorite solution). Immediately mea-sure the pH of the sample aliquot by Test Method D1293.IfthepH is not
40、 below the lower limit of the desired pH range,continue with 9.3. If the pH does fall below the lower limit ofthe desired range, add sodium hydroxide solution dropwisewith continual stirring to bring the pH up to approximately themidpoint of the pH range, noting the amount of sodiumhydroxide solutio
41、n required. Then, discard this solution andtransfer another 500 mL aliquot of sample to a 1-L beaker toreplace it. Add the same amount of sodium hydroxide solutionas was required for pH adjustment of the first sample aliquot toall of the sample aliquots. Proceed to 9.3.9.3 If the estimated maximum a
42、mount of chlorine wasadded to the first sample aliquot, add incrementally smalleramounts of chlorine to each of the other sample aliquots, withthe estimated minimum amount of chlorine being added to thelast sample aliquot. If the estimated minimum amount ofchlorine was added to the first sample aliq
43、uot, add incremen-tally greater amounts of chlorine to each of the other samplealiquots with the estimated maximum amount of chlorine beingadded to the last sample aliquot. Stir each sample aliquotgently after addition of chlorine. Proceed to 9.4.9.4 Measure the pH of each sample aliquot by followin
44、gTest Method D1293.9.5 If the pH is higher than the desired pH range, carefullyadjust the pH downward by adding, with constant gentlestirring, hydrochloric acid (1 + 1) dropwise until the pHreaches the upper limit of the desired range.NOTE 6Care must be taken during the addition of HCl (1 + 1) to ma
45、kesure that the pH is not lowered too rapidly and that the lower limit of thedesired pH range is not exceeded.Arapid reaction (which itself lowers thepH) may ensue if the pH is taken too low.9.6 Permit each portion of sample to stand for the desiredcontact time.NOTE 7Depending upon the application,
46、a single contact time or aseries of different contact times may be used for each sample aliquot. Thisis left to the judgment of the analyst.9.7 To estimate chlorine demand, determine residual-freechlorine on all of the sample aliquots at the end of the desiredcontact time by Test Method D1253.9.8 To
47、 estimate chlorine requirement, perform whatever testis necessary on all of the sample aliquots at the end of thedesired contact time to determine whether the objectives ofchlorination have been met. If it is desired to maintain a certainconcentration of residual available chlorine, perform the chlo
48、-rine determination by Test Method D1253.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the chlorine dosage in milligrams per litre foreach treated sample solution using Eq 1:Chlorine dosage, mg/L 5 2AB(1)where:A = chlorinating solution added to each sample aliquot,mL, andB = available chlorine per millilitre of chl
49、orinating solu-tion, mg (see 7.5.3).10.2 Chlorine demand is estimated using Eq 2:Chlorine demand, mg/L 5 C 2 D(2)where:C = chlorine dosage, mg/L, andD = free chlorine remaining at the end of contact time,mg/L.NOTE 8To calculate chlorine consumed, see Appendix X1.11. Precision and Bias11.1 PrecisionThe estimation of chlorine requirement ordemand, or both, is a practice. For measuring chlorine values,this practice refers the user to Test Method D1253.
