3、In the determination of oil and grease,an absolute quantity of a specific substance is not measured.Rather,groups of substances with similar physical characteristics are determined quantitatively on thebasis of their common solubility in a specified fluorocarbon solvent.Oil and grease may therefore,
4、besaid to include hydrocarbons,fatty acids,soaps,fats,waxes,oil,and any other material that isextracted by the solvent from an acidified sample of the test.It is important that this limitation beclearly understood.Unlike some constituentswhich represent distinct chemical elements,ions,compounds,or g
5、roups of compounds,oils and greases are defined by the method used for theirdetermination.In accordance with 40 CFR 82.13,Appendix G,chlorofluorocarbon-113 may not be used in the UnitedStates of America for the determination of oil and grease and total petroleum hydrocarbons in water.1.Scope1.1 Thes
6、e test methods cover the estimation of oil andgrease in water and wastewater by a gravimetric determinationof fluorocarbon extractable substances from an acidifiedsample.Also included in this estimation of oil and grease areany other compounds soluble in chlorofluorocarbon-113 andnon-volatile under

8、h certain wastes may yield lowresults because of the presence of either excessive concentra-tions of natural greases or synthetic or modified compoundsthat are not well recovered by these test methods.1.4 These test methods measure those groups of substancecalled oil and grease,whether soluble or in
9、soluble,polar ornon-polar,or biological or mineral in origin,to the extent thesesubstances partition from the matrix into chlorofluorocarbon-113 and are not volatilized under conditions of the test.(See theIntroduction and Section 3 of these test methods.)1.5 Because these test methods include an ac
