Significance and Use4.1 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Regula-tions, 40 CFR 266, require that boilers, cement kilns, and otherindustrial furnaces utilizing waste-derived fuel adhere to spe-cific guidelines in assessing potential

Sample8.1 Although feedstream materials are generally pulverizedpowders or liquids, the homogeneity of some feedstreammat

27、erials can be uncertain. The laboratory sample should bethoroughly mixed or homogenized prior to withdrawing aportion for analysis. This practice assumes that non-liquidfeedstreams are pulverized powders at the time of samplepreparation.NOTE 2If a non-liquid feedstream material is not in the form of

28、 apulverized powder, it may need to be reduced in particle size to passthrough a No. 100 sieve.9. Calibration and Standardization9.1 Although equipment manufacturers specify generalpower output ratings for microwave digestion units, it isimportant to verify the actual power output of a specific unit

ProcedureNOTE 3Many microwave digestion

36、 units are capable of handling upto 12 digestion vessels at a time. The number of vessels processed affectsthe required program settings. The microwave program examples given inAnnexes A1 and A2 were developed to accommodate 10 pressure vesselshave been proven effective in field testing.Amaximum pre

37、ssure of 140 psifor a minimum time at pressure of 10 min is generally sufficient for sampledigestion. A complete digestion can be verified by the user by processingreference materials and calculating analyte recoveries.10.1 Process coal, coke, cement raw feed, and othergeologic/inorganic materials a

38、s follows:10.1.1 Weigh 0.5 g of the feedstream material directly in aPFA digestion vessel liner and record the mass to the nearest0.01 g.10.1.2 Place the liner with sample in the digestion vesselbody and with a pipet unit, or equivalent device, slowly add 8mL HNO3to the PFA liner. If a chemical reac

39、tion is observed,allow the reaction to subside prior to performing 10.1.3.10.1.3 Place pressure controller cap assembly on the vesselbody, and hand tighten to achieve a firm fit. Do not overtightenbecause this can damage the sealing surface and threads.10.1.4 Be sure the pressure relief/rupture memb

40、rane screw-type fitting houses a new rupture membrane, and is tightened tofinger-tightness. Do not overtighten because this can poten-tially deform the rupture membrane and damage the threads. Ifa rupture membrane bursts during the digestion, stop thedigestion and remove the vessel with the ruptured

41、 membranefrom the turntable and resume digestion. Discard the sample inthe removed vessel.10.1.5 Place the vessel in the microwave turntable. Insertthe pressure sensing tubing from the pressure controller intothe pressure controller cap assembly and tighten to finger-tightness. Be sure that the pres

42、sure sensing tubing is com-pletely filled with water (from the pressure controller unit tothe pressure control vessel) prior to inserting this line.10.1.6 Repeat 10.1.1 and 10.1.2 for three or five additionalvessels. Cap these vessels with standard vessel cap assemblies.Be sure each vessel cap assem

43、bly is tightened to firmness.Evenly distribute the digestion vessels in the turntable toensure uniform heating of all vessels.10.1.7 It is recommended that a blank and a certifiedreference standard or a matrix spike be processed with eachbatch of samples of similar composition. Generally, a batch is

44、considered to be samples that are processed together by thesame method, reagents, and the same manipulation. The userwill need to determine the number of samples comprising abatch based on the users quality assurance requirements.10.1.8 The samples are ready for microwave processing.Process the samp

45、les by following the Stage 1 microwaveprogram described in Annex A1. Be sure the instrument cavityexhaust is set to maximum air flow.10.1.9 Following the cooling step (0 power) in Stage 1, thevessels should be cool to the touch. Additional cooling timemay be necessary if vessels remain hot. Vent the

Ventthe pressure control vessel in the microwave in order to removethe pressure sensing tubing. Remove the vessel cap assemblies.10.1.9.1 Flush the pressure sensing tubing

47、 with water toremove any trace of acid. This is an important step, becausedamage will occur to the pressure controller if an acidicsolution from the pressure sensing tubing is allowed to migrateto the pressure controller. The flush water should be disposedof as a waste.10.1.9.2 Using a polyethylene

48、syringe, or other equivalentcompatible device, add 4 mL of HF, and 2 mL of HCl to eachvessel. If a chemical reaction is observed, allow the reaction tosubside prior to performing 10.1.9.3.NOTE 4The user may choose to vary the amounts of HF and HClbased on prior knowledge of the sample. Samples known

49、 to be low insiliceous material may require a lesser amount of HF. In no case should theuser reduce the amount of HF or HCl below a 2-mL volume for each acid.10.1.9.3 Recap the digestion vessels, making sure the pres-sure relief/rupture membrane fitting is tightened to finger-tighteness. Replace the digestion vessels in the turntable, andreconnect the pressure sensing tubing to the pressure controlvessel. Be sure that the pressure sensing tubing is completelyfilled with water. Place the remaining digestion vessels in theturntable.10.1.9.4 The samples are read
