2、r,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method is intended for use in the determinationof beryllium in samples of s
3、oil and sediment.This test methodcan be used for purposes such as environmental remediationprojects where beryllium is a contaminant of concern.It is alsouseful for characterization of levels of beryllium in soil at siteswhere beryllium is in mining or manufacturing applications,and for determinatio
4、n of background levels of beryllium insoil.1.2 This test method assumes that samples of soil orsediment are collected using appropriate and applicable meth-ods.1.3 This test method includes a procedure for extraction(dissolution)of beryllium in dilute ammonium bifluoride,followed by analysis of aliq
5、uots of the extract solution using aberyllium-specific fluorescent dye.1.4For a 500 mg sample,the lower limit of the workingrange is approximately 0.04 mg Be/kg(5 dilution)or 0.1 mgBe/kg(20 dilution).The working range extends to concen-trations of at least 500 mg Be/kg.1.5 No detailed operating inst
