ASTM D4327-03 Compliant Analysis of Anions in Wastewater

User Benefits

- Enables acquisition of data with excellent linearity and repeatability in ASTM D4327-03 compliant analyses. - Separation of contaminant components and target anions in wastewater is possible by using the Shim-pack^TM IC-SA3. - This test method is also applicable to anion analyses of drinking water.

Introduction

The ion chromatograph is widely used in detection and quantitative analysis of ion components in aqueous solutions. ASTM D4327-03 issued by ASTM International in the United States specifies the test methods for analysis of the seven anions (fluoride ion, chloride ion, nitrite ion, bromide ion, nitrate ion, phosphate ion, sulfate ion) in drinking water or wastewater by suppressed ion chromatograph. This article introduces an ASTM D4327-03 compliant analysis of anions in industrial wastewater using a Shimadzu HIC-ESP anion suppressor ion chromatograph. (Application News 01-00102-EN introduces an anion analysis of drinking water.) A high resolution-type column, Shim-pack IC-SA3 was used because industrial wastewater has a high content of contaminants.
