1、Designation:D567315Standard Test Method forElements in Water by Inductively Coupled PlasmaMassSpectrometry1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5673;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last rev
2、ision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of dissolvedelements in ground water,surface water,and drinking water.Itmay also be used
3、 for the determination of total-recoverableelements in these waters as well as wastewater.21.2 This test method should be used by analysts experiencedin the use of inductively coupled plasmamass spectrometry(ICP-MS),the interpretation of spectral and matrix interfer-ences and procedures for their co
4、rrection.1.3 It is the users responsibility to ensure the validity of thetest method for waters of untested matrices.1.4 Table 1 lists elements for which the test method applies,with recommended masses and typical estimated instrumentaldetection limits using conventional pneumatic nebulization.Actua
5、l working detection limits are sample dependent and,asthe sample matrix varies,these detection limits may also vary.In time,other elements may be added as more informationbecomes available and as required.1.4.1 This method covers the analysis of mine dewateringgroundwater and wastewater effluent in
6、the range of 2120g/L dissolved antimony and 3200 g/L dissolved arsenic.1.4.2 This method covers the analysis of metallurgicalprocessing cyanide solutions in the range of 1500 g/Ldissolved gold.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included
7、in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
