21、Scope This part of EN 14662 is in accordance with the generic methodology selected as the basis of the European Union for the determination of benzene in ambient air 1 for the purpose of comparison of measurement results with limit values with a one-year reference period. This part of EN 14662 gives
22、 general guidance for the sampling and analysis of benzene in air, by diffusive sampling, solvent desorption and capillary gas chromatography. This part of EN 14662 is valid for the measurement of benzene in a concentration range of approximately 0,5 g/m3to 50 g/m3in an air sample typically collecte
23、d over a period of several days or several weeks. A number of devices are recommended for the sampling of benzene, each device having a different range of applicability, particularly with regard to the optimum period of exposure. The upper limit of the useful range is set by the sorptive capacity of
24、 the activated charcoal and, subject to dilution of the analysed solution, by the linear dynamic range of the gas chromatograph column and detector or by the sample splitting capability of the analytical instrumentation used. The lower limit of the useful range depends on the noise level of the dete
25、ctor and on blank levels of benzene and/or interfering artefacts on the sampling devices or in the carbon disulphide. Alternative sorbents to activated charcoal may be used provided that the equivalence in performance characteristics of the procedure is demonstrated. Alternative desorption solvents
26、to carbon disulphide may be used provided that the equivalence in performance characteristics of the procedure is demonstrated. 2 Normative References The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

ISO Guide 30:1992 3.2 combined standard uncertainty standard uncertainty of the result of a measurement when that result is obtained from the values of a number of other quantities, equal to the positive square root of a sum of terms, the terms being the varian

34、 is capable of taking samples of gases or vapours from the atmosphere at a rate controlled by a physical process such as gaseous diffusion through a static air layer or a porous material and/or permeation through a membrane, but which does not involve the active movement of air through the device NO
35、TE 1 Active normally refers to the pumped movement of air. NOTE 2 This definition differs from that in EN 838:1995 by the addition of the words “or a porous material”. 3.5 Diffusive uptake rate rate at which the diffusive sampler collects a particular gas or vapour from the atmosphere, expressed in
36、picograms per parts per billion1 per minute (pg/ppb/min) or cubic centimetres per minute (cm3/min) NOTE 1 pg/ppb/min are equivalent to ng/ppm/min. NOTE 2 This definition differs from that in EN 838:1995 by the substitution of “picograms per parts per billion” for “nanograms per parts per million”. T
37、he expression is numerically the same, but ambient concentrations are usually in the ppb range. 3.6 expanded uncertainty quantity defining an interval about the result of a measurement that may be expected to encompass a large fraction of the distribution of values that could reasonably be attribute
38、d to the measurand ENV 13005:1999 NOTE 1 The fraction may be viewed as the coverage probability or level of confidence of the interval. NOTE 2 To associate a specific level of confidence with the interval defined by the expanded uncertainty requires explicit of implicit assumptions regarding the pro

The level of confidence that can be attributed to the interval can be known only to the extent to which such a
40、ssumptions may be justified. NOTE 3 Expanded uncertainty is termed overall uncertainty in ENV 13005:1999. 3.7 reference material material or substance, one or more of whose property values are sufficiently homogeneous and well established to be used for the calibration of an apparatus, the assessmen

43、y be attributed to the measurand NOTE 1 The parameter may be, for example, a standard deviation (or given multiple of it), or the half width of an interval having a stated level of confidence. NOTE 2 Uncertainty of measurement comprises, in general, many components. Some of these components may be e
44、valuated from the statistical distribution of the results of a series of measurements and can be characterised by experimental standard deviations. The other components, which can also be characterised by standard deviations, are evaluated from assumed probability distributions based on experience o
45、r other information. NOTE 3 It is understood that the result of a measurement is the best estimate of the value of a measurand, and that all components of uncertainty, including those arising from systematic effects, such as components associated with corrections and reference standards, contribute
46、to this dispersion ENV 13005:1999. Attention is drawn to the fact that the terms Ambient Air and Limit Value are defined in Directive 96/62/EC 1. 4 Method description 4.1 Principle The diffusive sampler is exposed to air for a measured time period. The rate of sampling is determined by prior calibra
47、tion in a standard atmosphere (4.2.6) The benzene vapour migrates into the sampler by diffusion and is collected on the sorbent, normally activated carbon. The collected vapour is desorbed by a solvent, normally carbon disulphide, and the solution is analysed with a gas chromatograph equipped with a
48、 flame ionisation detector, mass spectrometer or other selective detector. The analysis is calibrated by means of vapour spiking onto a diffusive sampler or from calibration solutions of known amounts of benzene in carbon disulphide. Information on possible saturation of the sorbent, the effect of t
49、ransients and the effect of face velocity is given in EN 13528-3. This also explains the dependence of diffusion uptake rates on the concentration level of EN 14662-5:2005 (E) 7 pollutants and the time of diffusive sampling, for non-ideal sorbents, which results in different values being given in Annexes B and C. The theory of performance of diffusive samplers is also given in EN 13528-3. 4.2 Reagents and Materials During the analysis, use only reagents of known purity appropriate to the application. Use only volumetric glassware and s
