ASTM D 5384 Document Information:
Title
Standard Test Methods for Chlorine in Used Petroleum Products (Field Test Kit Method)
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Aug 15, 1995
Scope:
These test methods cover the determination of chlorine in used oils,
fuels, and related materials,
including: crankcase, hydraulic, diesel, lubricating and fuel oils,
and kerosene, all containing
<25 % (mass/mass) water.
Bromide and iodide are also titrated and reported on a molar basis as
chlorine.
The entire analytical sequence, including sampling, sample
pretreatment, chemical reactions,
extraction, and quantification, is available in kit form using
predispensed and encapsulated
reagents. The overall objective is to provide a simple, easy to use
procedure, permitting
nontechnical personnel to perform a test in or outside of the
laboratory environment in under 10
min. The test method also gives information to run the test without a
kit.
Test Method A is preset to provide a greater than or less than result
at 1000 mg/kg (ppm) total
chlorine to meet regulatory requirements for used oils.
Test Method B provides results over a range from 200 to 4000 mg/kg
total chlorine.
For both test methods, positive bias will result from samples that
contain greater than 3 %
(mass/mass) total sulfur. While a false negative result will not
occur, other analytical methods
should be used on high sulfur oils.
Test Method B, Lower Limit of Quantitation - In the round-robin study
to develop statistics for
this test method, participants were asked to report results to the
nearest 100 mg/kg. The lower
limit of quantification could therefore only be determined to be in
the range from 870 to 1180
mg/kg(5).
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values given in parentheses
are for information only.
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. Specific
safety statements are given in Sections 3, 6, and 7.
