SUSPENDED SOLIDS,
STATISTICAL EVALUATION
A single operator repetitively tested samples of two laboratory prepared
solutions, using one DR/700, matched sample cells and two
representative lots of reagents. Testing 325 mg/L Nonfilterable Residue
(Suspended Solids) samples the standard deviation was ±3 mg/L
Nonfilterable Residue (Suspended Solids).
SUMMARY OF METHOD
The photometric method of determining suspended solids is a simple,
direct measurement which does not require the filtration or ignition and
weighing steps necessary in gravimetric procedures. The stored
program has been calibrated using samples from a municipal sewage
treatment plant. The USEPA specifies the gravimetric method for solids
determinations, while the photometric method is often used for checking
in-plant processes.
