11、nternational Standard specifies a method for the deter- mination of nitrogen by a Kjeldahl-type method. Only trivalent negative nitrogen is determined. Organic nitrogen in the form of azide, azine, azo, hydrazone, nitrite, nitro, nitroso, oxime or semicarbazone is not determined quantitatively. Nitr

12、ogen may be incompletely recovered from heterocyclic nitrogen com- pounds. 1.2 Type of sample This method is applicable to the analysis of raw, potable and waste waters. 1.3 Range A Kjeldahl nitrogen content, N, of up to 10 mg, in the test por- tion may be determined. Using a 10 ml test portion, thi

13、s cor- responds to a sample concentration of up to N = 1 o00 mg/l. 1.4 Limit of detection A practically determined (4 degrees of freedom) limit of detec- tion, using a 100 ml test portion, is Q = 1 mg/l. 1.5 Sensitivity Using a 100 ml test portion, 1,0 ml of 0.02 mol/l hydrochloric acid is equivalen

14、t to N = 2,8 mg/l. 2 Reference IS0 7150/1, Water quality - Determination of ammonium - hrt I: Manual spectrometric method. 3 Definition For the purpose of this International Standard, the following definition applies: Kjeldahl nitrogen: The content of organic nitrogen and am- moniacal nitrogen in a

29、asks, specially designed, of sufficient capacity to accommodate the test portion volume to be used in the analysis, and in any event not exceeding 500 mi. They should preferably be suitable for direct attachment to the distillation apparatus (6.2). 6.2 Distillation apparatus, incorporating an anti-s

30、plash distillation head and a vertical condenser whose outlet can be submerged in the absorbent solution. If the Kjeldahl flasks (6.1) are not suitable for direct attachment to the distillation apparatus, separate distillation flasks are necessary. NOTE ON PRELIMINARY CLEANING OF THE DISTILLATION AP

31、PARATUS Carry out the following procedure whenever the apparatus has been out of use for more than a few days. Add about 350 mi of water (5.1) to the distillation flask. Add a few anti-bumping granules (5.91, assemble the apparatus, and distil at least 100 mi. Discard the distillate and the residue

32、in the distillation flask. 7 Sampling and samples Laboratory samples shall be collected in polyethylene or glass bottles. They should be analysed as quickly as possible, or else stored at between 2 and 5 OC until analysed. Acidification with sulfuric acid (5.3) to pH 2 may also be used as an aid to

33、preservation, provided that possible contamination of the acidified sample by absorption of any atmospheric ammonia is avoided. 8 Procedure 8.1 Test portion If the approximate nitrogen concentration of the sample is known, the test portion volume can be selected from table 1.

35、ed in 8.3, but using about 250 ml of water (5.1) instead of a test portion. Record the volume of hydrochloric acid (5.6) added. 8.3 Determination WARNING - The mineralization procedure may evolve toxic sulfur dioxide gas. Hydrogen sulfide and/or hydrogen cyanide may also be liberated from polluted s

36、amples. The mineralization should therefore be carried out under an effective fume extraction system. Place the test portion (8.1) in a Kjeldahl flask (6.1) and add, from a measuring cylinder, 10 ml of sulfuric acid (5.3) and 5,O I 0,5 g of the catalyst mixture (5.8). Add a few anti- bumping granule

37、s (5.9) and boil the flask contents rapidly, under a suitable fume extraction system. The volume of the contents will decrease as water is boiled away, then evolution of white fumes will begin. After fume evolution has ended, periodically observe the mineralizate and, after it has become clear and e

38、ither colourless or light brown in colour, continue heating for a further 60 min. (See note 1.) After mineralization allow the flask to cool to room tempera- ture. Meanwhile, measure 50 * 5 ml of indicator (5.7) into the receiving flask of the distillation apparatus. Ensure that the delivery tip of

39、the condenser is below the surface of the in- dicator solution. Carefully add 250 I 50 ml of water (5.1 ) to the mineralization flask, together with a few anti-bumping granules (5.9). Then add, from a measuring cylinder, 50 ml of sodium hydroxide solution (5.4) and immediately attach the flask to th

40、e distillation apparatus.(See note 2.) Heat the distillation flask so that distillate collects at a rate of about 10 ml/min. Stop the distillation when about 200 ml have been collected. Titrate the distillate to a purple end-point with 0,02 mol/l hydrochloric acid (5.6) and record the volume added.

41、(See note 3). NOTES 1 After water has boiled away, the rate of heating should be sufficient to reflux the acid mixture half-way up the neck of the flask. This en- sures the attainment of a sufficiently high mineralization temperature. 2 Where the flask is not compatible with the distillation apparat

42、us, the contents must be transferred quantitatively to a suitable distillation flask. This may conveniently be done at the water addition stage. 3 0.10 moll1 hydrochloric acid (5.51 may be used for the titration of distillates from samples containing high concentrations of nitrogen. 9 Expression of

43、results 9.1 Method of calculation The Kjeldahl nitrogen Concentration, N, expressed in milligrams per litre, is given by the formula “ - ” x c x 14,Ol x 1 O00 VO where Vo is the volume, in millilitres, of the test portion (see 8.1 1; Vi hydrochloric acid used for titration (see 8.3); is the volume,

44、in millilitres, of the standard volumetric V2 is the volume, in millilitres, of the standard volumetric hydrochloric acid used for the titration in the blank test (see 8.2); c is the exact concentration, expressed in moles per litre, of the hydrochloric acid used for titration; 14,Ol is the relative

45、 atomic mass of nitrogen. The result may be expressed as the mass concentration of nitrogen, eN, in milligrams per litre, or as the amount of substance concentration of nitrogen, cN, in micromoles per litre. TO convert N to cN, multiply N by 71.4. 9.2 Repeatability Repeatability standard deviations

46、have been determined as shown in table 2. 10 Interferences The presence of nitrate and/or nitrite may be a cause of both negative and positive errors. Nitrate and/or nitrite may be reduced under the test conditions to ammonium, leading to falsely high results. Nitrate and/or nitrite may also form am

47、- monium salts with ammonium in the sample. These salts may be decomposed at the temperature of the mineralization, resulting in the loss of nitrogen in gaseous forms and conse- quently low results. If the concentration of nitrate and/or nitrite in the sample seems likely to cause unacceptable bias

48、or loss of precision, separate reduction to ammonium should precede the mineralization process. Falsely low results may also be obtained if the mineralization procedure is over-prolonged. The procedure given in clause 8 must be carefully observed. CEN EN+25bb3 93 340q589 00528L3 3bT Nitrogen concent
