DESCRIPTION

BS 8855-2:2000


This standard BS 8855-2:2000 Soil analysis is classified in these ICS categories:
  • 13.080.10 Chemical characteristics of soils

This British Standard describes a method for determining the concentration of coal tar-derived phenols, namely catechol, resorcinol, phenol, cresols (ortho-, meta-, para-), xylenols (2,3; 2,4; 2,5; 2,6; 3,4 and 3,5); 2-isopropylphenol, 1-naphthol and 2,3,5 trimethylphenol. It is applicable to all types of soil containing concentrations of phenols in the approximate range 0.02 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg soil. Some performance characteristics of the method are summarized in annex A.

The method is not applicable to the determination of halogenated phenols. The range can be extended by suitable dilution of the extracts as required.
