Metrohm: Total nitrogen, total kjeldahl nitrogen, total phosphorus in water, wastewater as per ASTM D8001

Total nitrogen, total kjeldahl nitrogen, total phosphorus in water, wastewater as per ASTM D8001

Distillation vs Ion Chromatography Typical analysis of total nitrogen requires a distillation followed by colorimetric determination. As distillation is a tedious process and not reproducible, errors are easily introduced. ASTM D8001 provides a simple solution for simultaneous determination of total nitrogen and phosphorus using the robust Metrosep A Supp 16...

Metrohm Process Analytics: Online copper analysis to control Legionella in hot or cold water supply

Online copper analysis to control Legionella in hot or cold water supply

Copper-silver ionization Copper-silver ionization disperses positively charged copper and silver ions into the water system. The ions bond electrostatically with negative sites on bacterial cell walls and denature proteins. Over the long term, the presence of copper and silver ions destroy biofilms and slimes that can harbor Legionella, the bacteria...

How to minimize standard deviations by correct sample preparation

Modern analytical methods increase precision and push detection limits to make even the smallest traces of sample components detectable. Despite this development sample preparation, which is carried out prior to the actual analysis, is frequently neglected. White Paper: Follow the link to learn more and download the white paper by...

Disinfection by-products, a key indicator for drinking water quality

Professional production of drinking water requires sophisticated purification. Chlorite, chlorate, and the carcinogenic bromate are by-products of the disinfection process. Their determination at very low detection limits in the presence of the standard ions is regulated by various standards and norms, among them US-EPA 300.1 A and B, ASTM D6581-12,...

Carbohydrates as tracers in environmental analysis

Carbohydrates constitute the biggest part of the biomass on Earth. They are produced by photosynthesis and are present in all plants and plant based materials. The amount and composition of carbohydrates in a sample can reveal a wide range of different information, depending on the context. As a result, they...
