Characterization of waste - Determination of hydrocarbon content in the range of C10 to C40 by gas chromatography
This document specifies a method for the quantitative determination of the hydrocarbon content (C10 to C40) in solid waste by gas chromatography.
It is applicable to hydrocarbon content between 100 mg/kg and 10 000 mg/kg expressed as dry matter basis.
Using this standard all hydrocarbons with a boiling range of approximately 175 °C to 525 °C, e.g. n-alkanes from C10H22 to C40H82, isoalkanes, cycloalkanes, alkyl benzenes, alkyl naphthalenes and polycyclic aromatic compounds are determined as hydrocarbons, provided they do not adsorb on the Florisil column during clean-up. Volatile hydrocarbons cannot be quantitatively determined using this standard. This will affect the determination of some common hydrocarbon fuels, e.g. petrol.
NOTE 1 On the basis of the peak pattern of the gas chromatogram (see Annex A) and of the boiling points of the individual n alkanes listed in Annex B the approximate boiling range of the hydrocarbons and some qualitative information on the nature of the hydrocarbons can be obtained.
NOTE 2 At the moment there is no sufficient information on how to handle organic liquid wastes for the analysis of hydrocarbons.
NOTE 3 Aqueous liquid waste samples can be analysed in accordance with EN ISO 9377-2 or the procedure specified in Annex E.
NOTE 3 Aqueous liquid waste samples can be analysed according to EN ISO 9377-2 or the procedure specified in annex E.
Charakterisierung von Abfällen - Bestimmung des Gehalts an Kohlenwasserstoffen von C10 bis C40 mittels Gaschromatographie
Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur quantitativen Bestimmung des Kohlenwasserstoffgehalts (C10 bis C40) in festem Abfall mittels Gaschromatographie fest.
Sie ist anwendbar auf Kohlenwasserstoffgehalte zwischen 100 mg/kg und 10 000 mg/kg, bezogen auf die Trockenmasse.
Im Sinne dieser Norm werden alle Kohlenwasserstoffe mit einem Siedebereich etwa zwischen 175 °C und 525 °C, z. B. n-Alkane von C10H22 bis C40H82, Isoalkane, Cycloalkane, Alkylbenzene, Alkylnaphthalene und polycyclische aromatische Verbindungen, als Kohlenwasserstoffe bestimmt, vorausgesetzt, sie werden während der Reinigung nicht an eine Florisilsäule adsorbiert. Flüchtige Kohlenwasserstoffe können nach dieser Norm nicht quantitativ bestimmt werden. Das beeinträchtigt die Bestimmung einiger gebräuchlicher Kohlenwasserstoffbrennstoffe, z. B. Benzin.
ANMERKUNG 1 Auf der Grundlage der Peakfolge des Gaschromatogramms (siehe Anhang A) und der Siedepunkte der einzelnen in Anhang B aufgeführten n-Alkane können der näherungsweise Siedebereich der Kohlenwasserstoffe und einige qualitative Hinweise über den Ursprung der Kohlenwasserstoffe ermittelt werden.
ANMERKUNG 2 Gegenwärtig ist nicht ausreichend bekannt, wie organische flüssige Abfälle zur Analyse von Kohlenwasserstoffen zu handhaben sind.
ANMERKUNG 3 Proben aus wässrigem flüssigen Abfall können nach EN ISO 9377 2 oder nach dem in Anhang E beschriebenen Verfahren analysiert werden.
Caractérisation des déchets - Détermination de la teneur en hydrocarbures par chromatographie en phase gazeuse dans la plage C10 à C40
La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode de détermination quantitative de la teneur en hydrocarbures (C10-C40) par chromatographie en phase gazeuse dans les déchets solides.
Cette méthode est applicable lorsque la teneur en hydrocarbures est comprise entre 100 mg/kg et 10 000 mg/kg rapportée à la matière sèche.
La présente norme permet de déterminer en tant qu'hydrocarbures tous les hydrocarbures ayant une plage d'ébullition comprise entre environ 175 °C et 525 °C, par exemple les n-alcanes de C10H22 à C40H82, les iso-alcanes, les cyclo-alcanes, les alkyl-benzènes, les alkyl-naphthalènes et les composés aromatiques polycycliques dans la mesure où ils ne sont pas adsorbés sur la colonne de Florisil pendant la purification. Les hydrocarbures volatils ne peuvent pas être déterminés quantitativement à l'aide de la présente norme. La détermination de certains carburants hydrocarbonés courants, tels que l'essence, en sera affectée.
NOTE 1 Sur la base du profil chromatographique (voir l'Annexe A) et des points d'ébullition de chaque n-alcane listé dans l'Annexe B, il est possible d'obtenir la plage d'ébullition approximative des hydrocarbures et certaines informations qualitatives concernant le type de ces hydrocarbures.
NOTE 2 Actuellement il n'y a pas suffisamment d'informations disponibles sur la façon de procéder pour l'analyse des hydrocarbures dans les déchets organiques liquides.
NOTE 3 Les échantillons de déchets liquides aqueux peuvent être analysés conformément à l'EN ISO 9377-2 ou par le mode opératoire spécifié en Annexe E.

1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane or tetrachloromethane. The objective of this standard is to provide an analytical method for the determination of hydrocarbon content by capillary gas chromatography avoiding the use of such solvents. The user of this document should be aware that the results of this standard might not be comparable with those obtained when using the infrared spectroscopy. A mixture of acetone and n-heptane is the preferred extraction solvent. For waste samples containing large amounts of relatively high boiling hydrocarbons the gravimetric method (see EN 14345) can be used. SIST EN 14039:2005
