ASTM WK91195

New Practice for Standard Practice for Locating, Calibrating and Validating an In-Line Digital Imaging Analyzer for Liquid Hydrocarbons and Solids in Water Streams

1. Scope

This practice details a procedure to follow in order to properly install a digital imaging analyzer (DIA) in a process line, and to calibrate and validate results from the in-line DIA by comparison and correlation to off-line analysis methods. The method pertains to detection of hydrocarbons and solid contaminants in water streams in concentrations ranging from 1 to 5000 ug/L. The off-line comparative methods must be capable of this same range of analysis.

Keywords

Droplet; Size Distribution

Rationale

A simple procedure is needed to verify the measurement of oils and solids in water as measured by Digital Imaging Analyzers. This practice describes a procedure which can accomplish this task across a wide range of concentrations.
