Characterization of waste - Determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in waste using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS)

This European Standard specifies the quantitative determination of 16 polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) according to the priority list of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, 1982). This European Standard is applicable for wastes such as contaminated soil, sludge and rubble, bitumen or waste containing bitumen.
This European Standard describes a gas chromatographic method with mass spectrometric detection (GC-MS). Under the conditions specified in this document, a typical lower limit of application of 0,1 mg/kg for each individual PAH can be achieved.
NOTE 1   This method may be applied to the analysis of other PAH compounds not specified in the scope provided its applicability has been proven by proper in-house validation experiments.
NOTE 2   For some materials, e. g. bitumen, the lower limit of application of 0,1 mg/kg cannot be achieved due to interferences.
NOTE 3   Under certain circumstances the method may be applicable to PAH concentrations lower than 0,1 mg/kg but it is in the responsibility of the laboratory to provide proper validation data for such low concentrations.

Charakterisierung von Abfällen - Bestimmung von polycyclischen aromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen (PAK) in Abfall mittels Gaschromatographie-Massenspektrometrie (GC/MS)

Diese Europäische Norm legt die quantitative Bestimmung von 16 polycyclischen aromatischen Kohlenwasserstoffen
(PAK) entsprechend der Prioritätenliste der Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, US-Umweltschutzbehörde,
1982) fest. Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Abfälle wie z. B. kontaminierten Boden,
Schlamm und (Bau)Schutt, Bitumen oder bitumenhaltigen Abfall.
Diese Europäische Norm beschreibt ein gaschromatographisches Verfahren mit massenspektrometrischer
Detektion (GC-MS). Unter den in diesem Dokument festgelegten Bedingungen kann für jeden einzelnen PAK
eine typische untere Anwendungsgrenze von 0,1 mg/kg erzielt werden.
ANMERKUNG 1 Dieses Verfahren darf auf die Analyse weiterer, nicht im Anwendungsbereich festgelegter PAK-Verbindungen
angewendet werden, vorausgesetzt seine Anwendbarkeit wurde in den entsprechenden laborinternen Validierungsversuchen
nachgewiesen.
ANMERKUNG 2 Bei einigen Materialien, wie z. B. Bitumen, kann aufgrund von Interferenzen die untere Anwendungsgrenze
von 0,1 mg/kg nicht erreicht werden.
ANMERKUNG 3 Unter bestimmten Umständen kann das Verfahren auf PAK-Konzentrationen unter 0,1 mg/kg anwendbar
sein; es liegt jedoch in der Verantwortung des Laboratoriums, die entsprechenden Validierungsdaten für derartig
niedrige Konzentrationen zu liefern.

Caractérisation des déchets - Dosage des hydrocarbures aromatiques polycycliques (HAP) dans les déchets par chromatographie en phase gazeuse/spectrométrie de masse (CG/SM)

La présente Norme européenne spécifie le dosage quantitatif de 16 hydrocarbures aromatiques polynucléaires (HAP) selon la liste de polluants prioritaires établie par l’Agence de protection de l’environnement (États-Unis) [Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 1982]. La présente norme européenne est applicable aux déchets tels que sol contaminé, boues et gravats, bitume ou déchets bitumineux.
La présente norme européenne décrit une méthode par chromatographie en phase gazeuse couplée à une détection par spectrométrie de masse (CG-SM). Dans les conditions spécifiées dans le présent document, une limite inférieure d’application type de 0,1 mg/kg pour chacun des HAP peut être atteinte.
NOTE 1   La présente méthode peut être appliquée à l’analyse d’autres composés HAP non spécifiés dans le domaine d’application, à condition que son applicabilité ait pu être prouvée par des expériences de validation interne.
NOTE 2   Pour certains matériaux, par exemple le bitume, la limite inférieure d’application de 0,1 mg/kg ne peut être atteinte en raison d’interférences.
NOTE 3   Dans certaines circonstances, la méthode peut être applicable à des concentrations en HAP inférieures à 0,1 mg/kg, mais il est de la responsabilité du laboratoire de fournir des données de validation correctes pour ces faibles concentrations.

Introduction Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are ubiquitous because of the fact that they are released in appreciable quantities every year into the environment through the combustion of organic materials such as coal, fuel oils, petrol, wood, refuse and plant materials. Since some of these PAH compounds are carcinogenic or mutagenic, their presence in the environment (air, water, soil, sediment and waste) are regularly monitored and controlled. At present, the determination of PAH is carried out in these matrices in most of the routine laboratories following the preceding steps for sampling, pre-treatment, extraction, clean-up by measurement of specific PAH by means of gas chromatography in combination with mass spectrometric detection(GC-MS) or by HPLC in combination with UV-DAD- or Fluorescence-detection (HPLC-UV-DAD/FLD). However, the different matrices covered in this standard may contain a lot of contaminants. For this reason, the GC-MS method seems to be most appropriate for waste analysis. SIST EN 15527:2009

1 Scope This European Standard specifies the quantitative determination of 16 polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) according to the priority list of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, 1982). This European Standard is applicable for wastes such as contaminated soil, sludge and rubble, bitumen or waste containing bitumen. This European Standard describes a gas chromatographic method with mass spectrometric detection (GC-MS). Under the conditions specified in this document, a typical lower limit of application of 0,1 mg/kg for each individual PAH can be achieved.
NOTE 1 This method may be applied to the analysis of other PAH compounds not specified in the scope provided its applicability has been proven by proper in-house validation experiments. NOTE 2 For some materials, e. g. bitumen, the lower limit of application of 0,1 mg/kg cannot be achieved due to interferences. NOTE 3 Under certain circumstances the method may be applicable to PAH concentrations lower than 0,1 mg/kg but it is in the responsibility of the laboratory to provide proper validation data for such low concentrations. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
