SULFUR DIOXIDE Formula: SO 2 ; MW 64.06; CAS [7446-09-5]; a major air pollutant; produced when soft coals, oils, and automobile fuels burn; used as a fumigating and bleaching agent; colorless gas with a strong suffocating odor; liquefies at –10°C; solidifies at –72°C; soluble in water (8.5% at 25°C), alcohol, ether, and chloro- form; highly toxic and a strong irritant. AIR ANALYSIS Air drawn through two 0.8 µ m cellulose ester membranes: (1) the front filter to collect any interfering particulate sulfate and sulfite in the air, and (2) the back filter, treated with KOH to trap SO 2 ; SO 2 converted to K 2 SO 3 on the back filter; this filter treated with 10 mL mixture solution of 3 mmol NaHCO 3 and 2.4 mmol Na 2 CO 3 ; K 2 SO 3 dissociates into SO 3 2– anion, which is then determined by ion chromatography (NIOSH Method 6004, 1989); recommended flow rate 1 L/min; sample volume 100 L. • Use SO 3 2– calibration standard to determine the mass of SO 3 2– ; a blank analysis performed on the media blanks for background correction. • Multiply SO 3 2– concentration by the stoichiometric factor 0.8 to calculate the concentration of SO 2 . • Bicarbonate-carbonate eluant of the back filter may also be oxidized with a drop of 30% H 2 O 2 to SO 4 2– ; SO 4 2– formed measured by ion chromatog- raphy; to calculate the concentration of SO 2 , multiply the mass of SO 4 2– found in the analysis, multiplied by the stoichiometric factor 0.667. Alternatively, air drawn through an impinger solution containing 0.3 N H 2 O 2 ; SO 2 converted to SO 4 2– which is measured by titration with NaOH or barium per- chlorate (NIOSH Method S308, 1978). Alternatively, air drawn though a solid sorbent tube containing molecular sieve 5A; SO 2 adsorbed on this trap desorbed on heating under He purge; transported onto GC column and determined by GC/MS. • Characteristic mass for SO 2 is 64. 3.64 © 1997 by CRC Press LLC © 1997 by CRC Press LLC 412 HANDBOOK OF ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS A passive colorimetric dosimeter tube may also be used for direct measurement; SO 2 diffuses into the tube; color changes (red-purple to yellow in Vapor Guard tube); concentration determined from the length of stain. •Temperature and relative humidity may affect measurement; tubes should be used between 15 and 40°C.

ANALYSIS OF AQUEOUS AND NONAQUEOUS SAMPLES Aqueous samples extracted by purge and trap method; analyte thermally desorbed out of trap and swept onto a GC column for separation from other volatile compounds; detected by HECD, ECD, FID, or MSD. Soils, solid wastes, or sludges mixed with water or methanol; the aqueous extract or a solution of methanol extract spiked into water; subjected to purge and trap concentration and analyzed as above. Methanol or hexane extract may be directly injected for GC (ECD or FID) or GC/MS determination. • Characteristic masses for GC/MS identification: 164, 129, 131, and 166. • Limit of detection: in the range 0.05 µ g/L when detected by HECD for a 5-mL sample aliquot (subject to matrix interference). • Recommended surrogate/IS: 2-bromo-1-chloropropane and 1,4-dichloro- butane. • Samples collected in glass/plastic containers without headspace, refriger- ated, and analyzed within 14 days.
