17、de4.1 A representative sample of a water stream, or the waterstream itself flows into a reaction chamber where all or someof the dissolved organic carbon is oxidized to carbon dioxideby either of two means: (1) a chemical oxidant, an energysource such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, or both, or (2) h

18、ightemperature combustion. Some regulatory agencies requirecomplete oxidation. This carbon dioxide is subsequently mea-sured in the gas phase by a non-dispersive infrared detector, oris measured in solution by means of conductivity or membraneconductivity detection.4.2 If there are suspended solids

19、in the water stream, withsome analyzers it is advisable to filter the solids out to preventaccumulation and possible blockage.4.3 If there is inorganic carbon present in the water (in theform of carbonate, bicarbonate, or carbon dioxide), it will alsobe detected as carbon dioxide. If inorganic carbo

20、n is notremoved or compensated before analysis, the monitor willreport total carbon.4.4 Inorganic carbon can be removed from the water streamby acidifying and sparging the sample. This process may alsoremove purgeable organic compounds.4.5 Suspended elemental carbon may not be oxidized bylow-tempera

21、ture methods depending on several factors includ-ing analysis time, particle size and concentration, instrumentdesign, etc.5. Significance and Use5.1 Accurate measurement of organic carbon in water at lowand very low levels is of particular interest to the electronic,life sciences, and steam power g

22、eneration industries.5.2 Elevated levels of organics in raw water tend to degradeion exchange resin capacity. Elevated levels of organics in highpurity water tend to support biological growth and, in somecases, are directly detrimental to the processes that require highpurity water.5.3 In power gene

23、ration, naturally occurring organics canbecome degraded to CO2and low molecular weight organicacids that, in turn, are corrosive to the process equipment. Theireffect on conductivity may also cause water chemistry operat-ing parameters to be exceeded, calling for plant shutdown.Halogenated and sulfo

24、nated organics may not be detectable byconductivity but at boiler temperatures will release highlycorrosive chlorides, sulfates, etc.5.4 In process water in other industries, organic carbon cansignify in-leakage of substances through damaged piping andcomponents, or an unacceptable level of product

25、loss.5.5 In wastewater treatment, organic carbon measurementof influent and process water can help optimize treatmentschemes. Measurement of organic carbon at discharge maycontribute to regulatory compliance.5.6 In life sciences, control of organic carbon is necessary todemonstrate compliance with r

26、egulatory limits for some typesof waters.6. Interferences6.1 If inorganic carbon (dissolved CO2and ions in equilib-rium with it) is present, it may lead to over-reporting of anorganic carbon measurement unless it is compensated. Ion-exchange resins used for high purity water production typicallyremo

27、ve CO2from the water, so this interferent is absent fromsuch water unless the water stream comes in contact with theatmosphere prior to analysis. However, the ion-exchange resincan break down over time, producing a higher TOC carbonbackground, and must be monitored.6.2 If electrical conductivity is

28、used for the measurement ofCO2, other conductive species in solution may cause over-reporting unless their background conductivity is measured anddeducted or compensated. Background conductivity 2 S/cmor pH 7 or both can cause loss of sensitivity to TOC. Observeinstrument manufacturer specifications

29、. A power plant samplewith elevated pH and conductivity may be conditioned to bewithin acceptable pH and conductivity ranges by continuouslypassing the sample through a cation exchange cartridge. Theresulting TOC measurement will not include organic cationssuch as amines.TABLE 1 TOC Measurement Tech

If problems are anticipated, the method of detection mustbe modified or the water itself must be treated to reduce theinterfering background sufficiently to meet accuracy require-ments.6.4 If particulates are suspended in the water stream, theymay cause blockage in so

34、me analyzers over a period of time,and may also be hard to oxidize. If problems are anticipated,the water stream should be appropriately filtered upstream ofthe monitor and it must be recognized that results will notinclude solid organics. If the filter used is rated to 0.45 m thenthe parameter meas
