TEST METHODS SPECIFICATIONS
„ INTRODUCTION
Ammonia nitrogen is present in various concentrations in many surface and ground water
supplies. Any sudden change in the concentration of ammonia nitrogen in a water supply
is cause for suspicion. A product of microbiological activity, ammonia nitrogen is sometimes
accepted as chemical evidence of pollution when encountered in natural waters.
Ammonia is rapidly oxidized in natural water systems by special bacterial groups that
produce nitrite and nitrate. This oxidation requires that dissolved oxygen be available in
the water. Ammonia is an additional source of nitrogen as a nutrient which may contribute to
the expanded growth of undesirable algae and other forms of plant growth that overload the
natural system and cause pollution.
„ APPLICATION
Drinking, surface, and saline waters; domestic and industrial wastes.
„ RANGE
0 to 5.0 ppm Ammonia Nitrogen
„ METHOD
Ammonia forms a colored complex with Nessler's Reagent in proportion to the amount of
ammonia present in the sample. Rochelle salt is added to prevent precipitation of calcium or
magnesium in undistilled samples.
„ HANDLING & PRESERVATION
Preservation is accomplished by the addition of 2 mL of concentrated H
„ INTERFERENCES
Sample turbidity and color may interfere. Turbidity may be removed by a filtration procedure.
Color interference may be eliminated by adjusting the instrument to 100%T with a sample blank.
