1.1 These test methods cover the atomic absorption determination of silver in water. Section 34 on Quality Control pertains to these test methods. Three test methods are given as follows:
|
| Concentration | |
|
| ||
| Test Method A—Atomic Absorption—Chelation-ExtractionA | 1 to 10 μg/L | 7 – 15 |
| Test Method B—Atomic Absorption—Direct | 0.1 to 10 mg/L | 16 – 24 |
| Test Method C—Atomic Absorption—Graphite Furnace | 1 to 25 μg/L | 25 – 33 |
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversion to inch-pound units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
