Method 29
| The
determination of metal emissions from hazardous waste incinerators
involves a modification of the Method 5 train. The sampling train is
the same as a Method 5 particulate train with the addition of up to
three impingers to enhance the collection of metals of interest. The
impinger train requires the SB-4 impinger case, glass nozzles, probe
liners and non-metalic union. The method has been validated for the
collection of 17 different metals. |

|
| Note:
The standard glass filters are replaced with low background quartz
filters and the impinger solutions are specific for different metals.
The recovered samples are digested and appropriate fractions are
analyzed by various means such as inductively coupled argon plasma
emission spectroscopy (ICPES), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) or
graphite furnace AAS depending upon sensitivity required or the matrix
effects on the specific analyte |
