Determination of Total Organic Carbon in process water

TOC analysis allows the quantification of Total Organic Carbon in galvanic process water. Monitoring this parameter in water is important to ensure the high quality standards of the electroplating industry required by the market.

Method

Test type: End Point.

Time testing: 10 minutes
Analysis sessions with multiple samples are possible up to a maximum of 16 tests for CDR GalvanLab®.

Sample treatment

Use water as it is.

Test principle

Total Organic Carbon content is determined by its reaction with a chromogen that develops a coloration, the optical intensity of which is proportional to the concentration of Organic Carbon in the analyzed sample.

Calibration curve

The calibration curve was obtained by correlating the CDR method with the reference method.
