23、1999 apply. 4 Principle 4.1 Total soluble and insoluble nitrogen According to the list of standard fertilizers given in Annex I of 1, this determination is applicable to products containing calcium cyanamide. In the absence of nitrates, the test sample is mineralized by direct Kjeldahl digestion. In

24、 the presence of nitrates, the test sample is mineralized by Kjeldahl digestion after reduction with the aid of metallic iron and stannous chloride. In both cases, the ammonia is determined according to EN 15475. NOTE If analysis shows an insoluble nitrogen content of more than 0,5 %, one concludes

25、that the fertilizer contains other forms of insoluble nitrogen not included in the list in 1, Annex I. DIN EN 15604:2009-06 EN 15604:2009 (E) 5 4.2 Forms of soluble nitrogen 4.2.1 General The forms of soluble nitrogen referred to in 4.2.2 to 4.2.7 are determined from different aliquots taken from th

26、e same solution of the test sample: 4.2.2 Total soluble nitrogen 4.2.2.1 In the absence of nitrates, by direct Kjeldahl digestion. The ammonia is then determined (by the same method as that described in EN 15475). 4.2.2.2 In the presence of nitrates, by Kjeldahl digestion on an aliquot part taken fr

27、om the solution after reduction according to Ulsch. The ammonia is then determined (by the same method as that described in EN 15475). 4.2.3 Total soluble nitrogen with the exception of nitrate nitrogen By Kjeldahl digestion after elimination in an acid medium of nitrate nitrogen with ferrous sulfat

28、e. The ammonia is then determined (by the same method as that described in EN 15475). 4.2.4 Nitrate nitrogen by difference 4.2.4.1 In the absence of calcium cyanamide, by determining the difference between the nitrogen determined as summarized in 4.2.2.2 and that determined as summarized in 4.2.3 or

29、 between total soluble nitrogen (4.2.2) and the sum of ammoniacal nitrogen and ureic organic nitrogen (4.2.5 + 4.2.6). 4.2.4.2 In the presence of calcium cyanamide, by determining the difference between the nitrogen determined as summarized in 4.2.2.2 and that determined as summarized in 4.2.3 or be

30、tween the nitrogen determined as summarized in 4.2.2.2 and the sum of that determined as summarized in 4.2.5 + 4.2.6 + 4.2.7. 4.2.5 Ammoniacal nitrogen 4.2.5.1 Solely in the presence of ammoniacal nitrogen and ammoniacal plus nitrate nitrogen, according to EN 15475. 4.2.5.2 In the presence of urea n

31、itrogen and/or cyanamide nitrogen by cold distillation after making slightly alkaline, the ammonia is absorbed in a standard solution of sulfuric acid and determined according to EN 15475. 4.2.6 Urea nitrogen 4.2.6.1 By conversion using urease, into ammonia which is titrated with a standard solution

32、 of hydrochloric acid. or 4.2.6.2 By gravimetry with xanthydrol: the co-precipitated biuret can be counted with urea nitrogen without great error, its content remaining generally low in absolute value in compound fertilizers. or 4.2.6.3 By difference according to Table 1.
