Bio. Tector Series 4 Compliance with European Norm EN 1484 Section 4: Principle states: “Oxidation of organic carbon in water to carbon dioxide by combustion, by the addition of an appropriate oxidant, by UV radiation or any other high energy radiation. ” “The final determination of CO 2 is carried out by a number of different procedures, for example infrared spectrometry, titration, thermal conductivity, conductometry, coulometry, CO 2 sensitive sensors and flame ionization detection. ”
Bio. Tector Series 4 Compliance with US EPA 415. 1 Section 2. 0: Summary of Method states: “Organic carbon in a sample is converted to carbon dioxide (CO 2) by catalytic combustion or wet chemical oxidation. The CO 2 formed can be measured directly by an infrared detector or converted to methane (CH 4) and measured by a flame ionization detector. The amount of CO 2 or CH 4 is directly proportional to the concentration of carbonaceous material in the sample. ”
Bio. Tector Series 4 Compliance with ASTM D 5173 -97 Standard Test Method for: “On-Line Monitoring of Carbon Compounds in Water by Chemical Oxidation, by UV Light Oxidation, by Both, or by High Temperature Combustion Followed by Gas Phase NDIR or by Electrolytic Conductivity (of the released CO 2 gas). ”
THE PATENTED TWO STAGE ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESS: SUMMARY OF THE ON-LINE OPERATION ØSAMPLING: A representative unfiltered sample is taken containing fats, salts, particulates, suspended fibres and colloidal material. ØTIC PHASE: The inorganic carbon content is removed by an acid reagent. The CO 2 gas is sparged by oxygen and measured by an infrared CO 2 analyser. ØBASE OXIDATION: Ozone generated by the corona-discharge method is applied to a high p. H reagent to promote the production of hydroxyl radicals which results in the effective and complete oxidation of the sample. ØTOC PHASE: An acid reagent is added to remove the total organic carbon content of the oxidized sample as CO 2 gas, and this is measured by an infrared CO 2 analyser. ØRANGE SELECTION: Automatic selection of the optimum sample volume for the TOC range.
