1、Designation:D599715Standard Test Method forOn-Line Monitoring of Total Carbon,Inorganic Carbon inWater by Ultraviolet,Persulfate Oxidation,and MembraneConductivity Detection1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5997;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year
2、oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the on-line determination oftotal carbon
3、(TC),inorganic carbon(IC),and total organiccarbon(TOC)in water in the range from 0.5 g/L to 50 000g L of carbon.Higher carbon levels may be determined bysuitable on-line dilution.This test method utilizes ultraviolet-persulfate oxidation of organic carbon coupled with a CO2selective membrane to reco
4、ver the CO2into deionized water.The change in conductivity of the deionized water is measuredand related to carbon concentration in the oxidized sampleusing calibration data.Inorganic carbon is determined in asimilar manner without the requirement for oxidation.In bothcases,the sample is acidified t
5、o facilitate CO2recovery throughthe membrane.The relationship between the conductivitymeasurement and carbon concentration can be described by aset of chemometric equations for the chemical equilibrium ofCO2,HCO3,H+,and OH,and the relationship between theionic concentrations and the conductivity.The
6、 chemometricmodel includes the temperature dependence of the equilibriumconstants and the specific conductances resulting in linearresponse of the method over the stated range of TOC.See TestMethod D4519 for a discussion of the measurement of CO2byconductivity.1.2 This test method has the advantage
7、of a very highsensitivity detector that allows very low detection levels onrelatively small volumes of sample.Also,the use of twomeasurement channels allows determination of IC in thesample independently of organic carbon.Isolation of theconductivity detector from the sample by the CO2selectivemembr
