Ambient air quality - Standard method for the determination of total gaseous mercury
This European Standard specifies a standard method for determining total gaseous mercury (TGM) in ambient air using cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry (CVAAS), or cold vapour atomic fluorescence spectrometry (CVAFS).
This European Standard is applicable to background sites that are in accordance with the requirements of Directive 2004/107/EC and to urban and industrial sites.
The performance characteristics of the method have been determined in comparative field validation tests carried out at four European locations: two background and two industrial sites. The method was tested for two months at each site over a period of twelve months using automated equipment currently used in Europe for determination of TGM in ambient air.
The working range of the method covers the range of ambient air concentrations from those found at background sites, typically less than 2 ng/m3, up to those found at industrial sites where higher concentrations are expected. A maximum daily average up to 300 ng/m3 was measured during the field trials.
Results are reported as the average mass of TGM per volume of air at 293,15 K and 101,325 kPa, measured over a specified time period, in nanograms per cubic metre.
Außenluftbeschaffenheit - Standardisiertes Verfahren zur Bestimmung des gesamten gasförmigen Quecksilbers
Die vorliegende Europäische Norm beschreibt ein standardisiertes Verfahren zur Bestimmung des gesamten
gasförmigen Quecksilbers (TGM) in der Außenluft mit der Kaltdampf-Atomabsorptionsspektrometrie (CVAAS)
oder der Kaltdampf-Atomfluoreszenzspektrometrie (CVAFS).
Diese Europäische Norm ist anwendbar auf Hintergrundstationen, die den Anforderungen der Richtlinie
2004/107/EG entsprechen, und auf Stadtgebiete sowie Gebiete mit Industrieeinfluss.
Die Verfahrenskenngrößen wurden mit vergleichenden Feldversuchen zur Validierung bestimmt, die an vier
europäischen Standorten durchgeführt wurden: zwei Hintergrundstationen und zwei Industriestandorte. Das
Verfahren wurde an jedem Standort für zwei Monate über einen Zeitraum von 12 Monaten mit automatisierten
Geräten geprüft, die derzeit in Europa zur TGM-Bestimmung in der Außenluft angewendet werden.
Der Messbereich des Verfahrens umfasst Außenluftkonzentrationen von kleiner 2 ng/m3, wie sie üblicherweise
an Hintergrundstationen anzutreffen sind, bis hin zu höheren Konzentrationen, wie sie in Gebieten mit
Industrieeinfluss erwartet werden. Bei den Feldversuchen wurde ein maximaler Tagesmittelwert von bis zu
300 ng/m3 gemessen.
Die Ergebnisse sind in ng/m3 als Mittelwert der über einen festgelegten Zeitraum bei 293 K und 101,325 kPa
bestimmten Masse an TGM je Luftvolumen angegeben.
Qualité de l'air ambiant - Méthode normalisée pour la détermination du mercure gazeux total
La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode normalisée pour la détermination du mercure gazeux
total (TGM) dans l’air ambiant par spectrométrie d’absorption atomique de vapeur froide (SAAVF) ou
spectrométrie de fluorescence atomique de vapeur froide (SFAVF).
La présente Norme européenne s’applique aux sites de fond conformes aux exigences de la
Directive 2004/107/CE et aux sites urbains et industriels.
Les caractéristiques de performance de la méthode ont été déterminées par des essais comparatifs de
validation sur le terrain réalisés sur quatre sites en Europe : deux sites de fond et deux sites industriels. La
méthode a été vérifiée pendant deux mois sur chaque site sur une période de douze mois à l’aide
d’équipements automatisés couramment utilisés en Europe pour la détermination du TGM dans l’air ambiant.
L’étendue de mesure de la méthode couvre la plage des concentrations dans l’air ambiant allant de celles
observées sur les sites de prélèvement de fond, généralement inférieures à 2 ng/m3, à celles observées sur
les sites industriels où des concentrations plus élevées sont attendues. Une moyenne journalière maximale
jusqu’à 300 ng/m3 a été mesurée au cours des essais sur le terrain.
Les résultats sont exprimés en masse moyenne de TGM par volume d’air à 293,15 K et 101,325 kPa,
mesurée sur une période de temps spécifiée, en nanogrammes par mètre cube (ng/m3).
Kakovost zunanjega zraka - Standardna metoda za določevanje celotnega živega srebra v plinasti fazi
Ta evropski standard določa standardno metodo za določevanje celotnega živega srebra v plinasti fazi (TGM) v zunanjem zraku z atomsko absorbcijsko spektrometrijo hladnih par (CVAAS) ali atomsko fluorescenčno spektrometrijo hladnih par (CVAFS). Ta evropski standard velja za zaledna območja, ki so v skladu z zahtevani Direktive 2004/107/ES, ter za urbana in industrijska območja. Značilnosti delovanja metode so bile določene s primerjalnimi validacijskimi preskusi na terenu, opravljenimi na štirih evropskih lokacijah: dve zaledni in dve industrijski območji. Metoda se je preskušala dva meseca v obdobju dvanajstih mesecev na vsakem območju z avtomatsko opremo, ki se trenutno uporablja v Evropi za določevanje TGM v zunanjem zraku. Delovni razpon te metode zajema razpon koncentracij zunanjega zraka od tistih, ki se nahajajo na zalednih območjih, običajno manjših od 2 ng/m3, do tistih, ki se nahajajo na industrijskih območjih, kjer so pričakovane višje koncentracije. Med preskusi na terenu je bilo izmerjeno maksimalno dnevno povprečje do 300 ng/m3. Rezultati so prikazani kot povprečna masa TGM na volumen zraka pri 293,15 K in 101,325 kPa, merjena v določenem roku v nanogramih na kubični meter.
