SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 Control of silica in boiler feedwater and boiler water is necessary to minimize the formation of scale-forming silicates that decrease heat transfer in the boiler. Volatilization and carryover of silica with the steam may cause hard, glassy siliceous deposits to form on turbine blades that reduce turbine efficiency.  
5.2 Colloidal silica that is not removed by boiler water pretreatment processes may be solubilized in the boiler and thus contribute to the dissolved silica concentration in the boiler. Both dissolved and total silica are of interest.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the determination of total silica in water.  
1.2 This test method is applicable in the range from 25 μg/L to 250 μg/L of silica as SiO2. Higher concentrations may be determined by decreasing the aliquot volume (see Note 6). Concentration range should not be extended by dilution.  
1.3 This test method determines total silica, and does not distinguish between soluble and insoluble forms.  
1.4 This test method was tested on reagent water only. It is the user's responsibility to assure the validity of the test method for waters of other matrices.  
1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.6 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 General—This guide contains information regarding the use of AOPs to oxidize and eventually mineralize hazardous materials that have entered surface and groundwater as the result of a spill. These guidelines will only refer to those units that are currently applied at a field scale level. The user should review applicable state regulations and guidance on the applicability of AOP (see California DTSC 2010, New Jersey DEP 2017, Oklahoma DEQ 2017).  
Note 1: Commercialization of AOP for the treatment of wastewater and process water is fairly mature. Several transnational companies offer mobile and large-scale processing units for the treatment of persistent chemicals of concern. Standard Guides D5745, E2081, and E2616 may be useful. Fig. 1 illustrates the general AOP process.

4.2 Oxidizing Agents:  
4.2.1 Hydroxyl Radical (OH)—The OH radical is the most common oxidizing agent employed by this technology due to its powerful oxidizing ability. When compared to other oxidants such as molecular ozone , hydrogen peroxide, or hypochlorite, its rate of attack is commonly much faster. In fact, it is typically one million (106) to one billion (109) times faster than the corresponding attack with molecular ozone (Keller and Reed, 1991 (1)).9 The three most common methods for generating the hydroxyl radical ar...
SCOPE
1.1 This guide covers the considerations for advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in the mitigation of spilled chemicals and hydrocarbons dissolved into ground and surface waters.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 The copper oxides layer present on the surface of the copper rod has a detrimental effect on both final surface quality of the copper wire produced by cold drawing of the rod, and on the drawing process itself leading to wire breaks and excessive wear of the drawing dies. Thus, it is critical to use adequate cleaning techniques during the copper rod manufacturing process in order to limit the depth of the residual copper oxide layer on the finished rod, and it is necessary to have a method to accurately measure the copper oxide depth.  
5.2 This test method is the most common test method used by continuous casting and rolling mills to measure the depth of residual surface oxides after the copper rod has been cleaned.  
5.3 Applicability of the test method for any other purpose or product has not been evaluated. Suitability beyond the stated scope shall be evaluated before use.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification established a quantitative, laboratory conducted, electrolytic reduction method to determine the thickness of surface copper oxide films on copper rod produced to Specification B49 for further fabrication into electrical conductors.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 In the design and operation of reverse osmosis installations, it is important to predict the SiO2 scaling properties of the concentrate stream. Because of the increase in the concentration of SiO2 and the change in pH, the scaling property of the concentrate stream will be quite different from that of the feed solution. This practice permits the calculation of the scaling potential for the concentrate stream from the feedwater analysis and the reverse osmosis operating parameters.  
5.2 Scaling by SiO2 will adversely affect the reverse osmosis performance. This practice gives various procedures for the prevention of scaling.  
5.3 The presence of certain metals, for example, Al+3, may significantly alter the solubility of SiO2 via formation of insoluble metal silicates. This practice does not address this phenomena.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers the calculation and adjustment of silica (SiO2) for the concentrate stream of a reverse osmosis system. The calculations are used to determine the need for scale control in the operation and design of reverse osmosis installations. This practice is applicable for all types of reverse osmosis devices (tubular, spiral wound, and hollow fiber).  
1.2 This practice is applicable to both brackish waters and seawaters.  
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.4 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.
