Determination of Total Nitrogen in Waste Water with Oxidative Catalytic Combustion and Chemiluminesence Detection

Nitrogen is a type of nutrient pollution that comes from the microbial digestion of animal wastes or nitrogen-based fertilizers. High levels of nitrogen in bodies of water can result in harmful algae blooms, which reduces nursery habitats, kills fish and forms oxygen-starved "dead" zones. Drinking water containing high concentration of nitrite or nitrate can also adversely affect infants and children as it results in methemoglobinemia, a blood disorder that interferes with the body's processes for carrying oxygen to cells and tissues. Hence, it is important to monitor nitrogen level in drinking water and waste water.
This application news demonstrates the analysis of Total Nitrogen in Certified Reference Materials waste water samples using Shimadzu TOC-LCSH coupled with TNM-L TN analyser.
