Determination of Toxic and Eco-toxic Elements in Industrial Effluents Application Note · novAA 800 F

Challenge

  • Determination of Cd, Pb, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Cr in industrial effluents.

Solution

  • Reliable high-throughput routine analysis using flame AAS on the novAA 800 F.

Introduction

Industrialization and an ever-growing population with rising standards of living produce huge volumes of wastewater, while at the same time the demand for drinking water is increasing. Hence, water recycling and continuous monitoring of industrial/communal wastewater is becoming more and more important globally.

This application note describes a method for fast routine analysis of several toxic key elements, such as cadmium, lead, nickel, copper, zinc, and chromium, in industrial effluents.

These metals may pass into ecosystems through wastewater from industrial or municipal sites. Water treatment plants help to filter and purify toxic elements and other contaminants out of wastewater before it is released into the environment.

Thus, tight monitoring of industrial effluents is key for meeting statutory limits (as, for example, regulated in national drinking water directives) and for allowing targeted intervention in case of potential hazards. This is crucial for guaranteeing a safe supply of healthy water to everyone.
