34、83:2004 (E) 8 3.4 Chemical properties Polyaluminium chloride hydroxide and polyaluminium chloride hydroxide sulfate are acidic liquids which hydrolyze and form a precipitate of aluminium hydroxide when diluted beyond a particular level. NOTE 1 Since aluminium compounds are amphoteric in nature, the
35、solubility of aluminium depends on the pH value and the products should be used within an appropriate pH range. NOTE 2 A characteristic of these products is their high tendency to hydrolyze which restricts their use; this tendency results from the particular oligomeric or polymeric composition. Thes
36、e products vary in their relative basicity (mole ratio OH/3Al), the percentage of chloride and sulfate ions present and in their method of manufacture. NOTE 3 These variations may affect their performance in the water treatment plant. Special water plant requirements regarding, but not limited to, s
37、uch items as: organic matter removal, residual aluminium levels and working pH values should be specified when possible, so that the product which best fits the need can be offered. 4 Purity criteria 4.1 General This document specifies the minimum purity requirements for polyaluminium chloride hydro
38、xide and polyaluminium chloride hydroxide sulfate used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depending on the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be not
39、ified to the user and when necessary to relevant authorities. NOTE Users of these products should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, cont
40、ents of other impurities and additives used in the products not stated in this document. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or ra
41、w materials lead to significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of commercial product The concentration of active matter (aluminium ion content) in the commercial product expressed as grams per kilogram of product
42、shall be within 3 % of the manufacturers declared values. NOTE The concentration of water- soluble aluminium in commercial products varies. Typical values of aluminium content in the products can be between 42 g/kg and 124 g/kg. The commercial products vary in the proportions of chloride and sulfate
43、 ions. The relative basicity of the polyaluminium chloride hydroxide and polyaluminium chloride hydroxide sulfate, expressed as the mole ratio OH/3Al, shall be greater than 0,35. EN 883:2004 (E) 9 4.3 Impurities and main by-products Impurities derived from the manufacturing or extraction processes i
44、nclude insoluble matter, trace metals and organic compounds. 4.4 Chemical parameters The products shall conform to the requirements specified in Table 1. Table 1 Chemical parameters Parameter Limit (mg/kg of Al) type 1 type 2 type 3 Arsenic (As) max. 14 40 100 Cadmium (Cd) max. 3 50 100 Chromium (Cr

Pesticides and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are not
46、relevant since the raw materials used in the manufacturing process are free of them. For maximum impact of these products on trace metal content in drinking water see A.2.

47、nt ISO 6206. 5.1.2 Liquid 5.1.2.1 Sampling from drums and bottles 5.1.2.1.1 General 5.1.2.1.1.1 Mix the contents of the container to be sampled by shaking the container, by rolling it or by rocking it from side to side, taking care not to damage the container or spill any of the liquid. 5.1.2.1.1.2
48、If the design of the container is such (for example, a narrow-necked bottle) that it is impracticable to use a sampling implement, take a sample by pouring after the contents have been thoroughly mixed. Otherwise, proceed as described in 5.1.1.2.1.3. 5.1.2.1.1.3 Examine the surface of the liquid. If
49、 there are signs of surface contamination, take samples from the surface as described in 5.1.2.1.2; otherwise, take samples as described in 5.1.2.1.3. 5.1.2.1.2 Surface sampling Take a sample using a suitable ladle. Lower the ladle into the liquid until the rim is just below the surface, so that the surface layer runs into it. Withdraw the ladle just before it fills completely and allow any liquid adhering to the ladle to drain off. If necessary, repeat this operation so that
