DIN EN 14039:2005 PDF

Scope: This European Standard specifies a method for the quantitative determination of the hydrocarbon content (C10 to C40) in solid waste by gas chromatography. It is applicable to hydrocarbon content between 100 mg/kg and 10000 mg/kg expressed as dry matter basis. Using this standard all hydrocarbons with a boiling range of approximately 175 ?to 525 ? e. g. n-alkanes from C10H22 to C40H82, isoalkanes, cycloalkanes, alkyl benzenes, alkyl naphthalenes and polycyclic aromatic compounds are determined as hydrocarbons, provided they do not adsorb on the Florisil column during clean-up. Volatile hydrocarbons cannot be quantitatively determined using this standard. This will affect the determination of some common hydrocarbon fuels, e. g. petrol.
