The method describes how to determine the free and total chlorine content using a titrimetric method with DPD.
The analysis involves a reaction with N,N-diethyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (DPD), which forms a compound possessing a red color at a pH of 6.2–6.5. The solution is titrated with an ammonium iron(II) sulfate standard solution until the red color disappears. Total chlorine is measured through the addition of potassium iodide, of which a known amount in excess of that required is added to the solution in advance.
The method describes how to determine the total chlorine content of water using an iodometric method.
The total chlorine reacts with potassium iodide in an acidic solution, releasing free iodine. Immediate reduction of the iodine is performed using a thiosulfate standard solution, of which a known amount in excess of that required was added to the solution in advance. The thiosulfate left untransformed is titrated using a potassium iodate standard reference solution to complete the analysis.
The method describes how to determine the free chlorine and total chlorine content using a photometric method with DPD.
The analysis involves a reaction with N,N-diethyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (DPD), which forms a compound possessing a red color at a pH of 6.2–6.5. The color is measured photometrically at 510 nm. Total chlorine is measured through the addition of potassium iodide, of which a known amount in excess of that required is added to the solution in advance.
The method describes how to determine the chlorine dioxide content of water photometrically with a cuvette test.
