Title
Standard Practices for Sampling of Waterborne Oils
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Sep 10, 1995
Scope:
These practices describe the procedures to be used in collecting
samples of waterborne oils (see Practice D 3415), oil found on
adjoining shorelines, or oil-soaked debris, for comparison of oils
by spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, and for elemental
analyses.
Two practices are described. Practice A involves" grab sampling"
macro oil samples. Practice B can be used to sample most types of
waterborne oils and is particularly applicable in sampling thin oil
films or slicks. Practice selection will be dictated by the
physical characteristics and the location of the spilled oil. These
two practices are:
Each of the two practices is designed to collect oil samples
with a minimum of water, thereby reducing the possibility of
chemical, physical, or biological alteration by prolonged contact
with water between the time of collection and analysis.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety
concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use. For specific hazards statements, see
Section 7.
