Chemical Oxygen Demand

Standard Method # 5220. The determination of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is widely used in municipal and industrial laboratories to measure the overall level of organic contamination in wastewater. The contamination level is determined by measuring the equivalent amount of oxygen required to oxidize organic matter in the sample. COD differs from BOD in that it measures the oxygen demand to digest all organic content, not just that portion which could be consumed by biological processes. Perform your COD analysis using the DigiPREP CUBE Digestion System and AccuSPEC Pre-lled COD Tubes. Standards and reagents are available as well.

DigiPREP CUBE Digestion System

DigiPREP CUBE Digestion System is an innovative, 25-position Digestion Block designed for Chemical Oxygen Demand and other digestions employing 16 mm tubes. DigiPREP CUBE is a vertically integrated system with a built-in temperature controller, timer, and graphic display. Simple operation is achieved through keypad selection of timer settings, 15, 60, 90, or 120 minutes, and pre-set temperatures of 100 and 150 C. The digestion block is Teon-Coated Graphite to resist corrosion and acid attack.

Total Organic Carbon

Standard Method # 5310. Organic matter plays a major role in aquatic systems. It affects biogeochemical processes, nutrient cycling, biological availability, chemical transport and interactions. It also has direct implications in the planning of wastewater treatment and drinking water treatment. Organic matter content is typically measured as total organic carbon and dissolved organic carbon, which are essential components of the carbon cycle. AccuSPEC prepared standards for TOC and TIC reduce analysis costs and maximize productivity.

Biological Oxygen Demand

Standard Method # 5210. Microorganisms such as bacteria are responsible for decomposing organic waste. When organic matter such as dead plants, leaves, grass clippings, manure, sewage, or even food waste is present in a water supply, the bacteria will begin the process of breaking down this waste. When this happens, much of the available dissolved oxygen is consumed by aerobic bacteria, robbing other aquatic organisms of the oxygen they need to live. Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) is a measure of the oxygen used by microorganisms to decompose this waste. AccuSPEC prepared reagents for Biological Oxygen Demand are available in different volumes, to provide the maximum cost effectiveness for your laboratory.

Total Dissolved Solids

Standard Method # 2540. Total Dissolved Solids refer to the amount of physical matter dissolved in water. Determination of the solids content is important for both aesthetic and practical reasons, Drinking water with a high solids content can have an disagreeable palatability. Water with high mineral content can cause heavy deposition and be unsuitable for many industrial applications. AccuSPEC prepared Total Dissolved Solids standard values are expressed as a concentration of KCl. Exact values are dependant on the aliquot taken for the analysis. Use peCHECK Mineral Standard as a performance evaluation standard in conjunction with AccuSPEC Standards.

Anion (Inorganic Nonmetallic) Analysis

Analysis of the common anions are important for monitoring water quality prior, during and after treatment. The two common methods of analysis are Ion Chromatography, Standard Method # 4110, and Ion Selective Electrode Analysis Standard Method Series # 4500. AccuSPEC Anion Standards are designed for use with both methods of analysis, Ion Chromatography and Ion Selective Electrode. In addition to the single and multi-element standards, custom standards designed for your specic application are also available.

Cation (Metal) Analysis

Standard Method Series # 3000. Metals in water or wastewater can have either a benecial or dangerous effect depending on the element and the concentration. Certain metals, such as selenium, are an essential minerals at very low levels but toxic at higher concentrations. Typical analysis methods include acid digestion followed by atomic absorption or ICP spectroscopy, ion chromatography, or ion selective electrode analysis. SCP SCIENCE manufactures the DigiPREP Family of Digestion Systems; specically designed for acid digestion methods. In addition to the full sized DigiPREP System, other instruments are available to suit your specic laboratory needs. PlasmaCAL and AccuSPEC Calibration Standards provide a NIST traceable method to calibrating your analytical instrument.

Acidity, Alkalinity & pH

Standard Methods # 2310, 2320, and 4500 H+. Acidity and alkalinity are measures of the aggregate properties of water. Acidity contributes to corrosiveness and inuence chemical reaction rates, chemical speciation, and biological processes. A water sample will have either an acidity value or an alkalinity value, never both; but both are commonly reported as mg CaCO3/L. The pH of a sample can impact every phase of the drinking water/wastewater cycle. In fact, the success of the treatment procedure is dependent on the proper pH being maintained at each step. pH is measured using a glass and reference electrode which have been calibrated against a buffer of known value. AccuSPEC Titrants, Buffers, and Indicators are available for every method. In addition, lling and storage solutions for combination and reference electrodes are available.

Hardness
Standard Method # 2340. Hardness is due to the presence of multivalent metal ions which come from minerals dissolved in water. Hardness is based on the ability of these ions to react with soap to form a precipitate. Hardness is also a very important indicator of the ability of the water to deposit scale or Ca/Mg salts over time in plumbing xtures, Therefore, the practice is to express hardness in terms of mg/L CaCO3, as calculated by either titration or ICP-AES analysis. In addition to the routine volumes and concentrations listed below, additional AccuSPEC Standards and Reagents are available in the Standards and Reagents Catalog.

Conductivity
Standard Method # 2510. As the term implies, conductivity is the degree to which a water sample can carry an electric current. The magnitude of the conductivity of a sample is a function of the amount of ions present in the sample. High conductivity can be an indicator of excessive mineralization from either natural or industrial sources. The measure of conductivity is also a good screening test which helps determine which additional testing is required. Conductivity is measured using a conductivity cell. It is necessary to determine the cell constant using a conductivity standard prior to analyzing samples. AccuSPEC Conductivity standards respond to the need for the accurate measurement of conductivity in laboratory, process, & environmental water samples. All standards are certied at 25 C.

Total Phosphorus
Standard Method Series # 4500-P. Phosphorus is present in nature and in wastewaters as either ortho-phosphates, poly-phosphates, or organically bound phosphates. Phosphorus is an important nutrient in the biosphere. However, an excess caused by industrial or municipal discharge can result in nuisance quantities of biota (algae) being created. Due to the different forms of phosphorus, it is important to perform a Total digestion before analysis. SCP SCIENCE provides a number of products to assist in your Total Phosphorus Analysis. The DigiPREP family of Digestion Systems can be utilized for the digestion procedure. A variety of AccuSPEC reagents and standards are available for the various phosphate methods.

Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN)

Standard Method # 4500-Norg. Nitrogen is a very important element in water analysis. Very different treatment methods may be required based on not only the concentration of nitrogen present, but also on the predominate species (or type) of nitrogen. Although the NO3 , NO2 and NH3 forms of nitrogen can be determined directly, the organic form must be digested or converted to a common form before analysis can be undertaken. The Kjeldahl digestion converts all forms of nitrogen to ammonia nitrogen, which is then titrated against a known acid standard. SCP SCIENCE provides a number of products to assist in your Total Kjeldahl Analyses. In addition to AccuSPEC Reagents, use the DigiPREP HT Digestion System to prepare your samples for titration.
