ASTM D8145-18 PDF Download

A publication that offers instructions on the sampling of green petroleum coke is the ASTM D8145-18 standard. This procedure largely uses the sampling principles of Practice D2234/D2234M for green petroleum coke. The application of D05.05 coal standards to the sampling of green petroleum coke is specifically outlined in this practice since green petroleum coke is often more homogeneous than coal.

A stopped belt cut, a full-stream cut, a part-stream cut, and stationary sampling are the four conditions for collecting sample increments that are defined in Practice D2234/D2234M, which is the practice that is referenced in the standard. The procedure instructs the user on how to apply the proper coal standard for each circumstance and highlights important points for sampling green petroleum coke.
