What Does it Cover?
Currently the US EPA has not promulgated a method for the analysis of Total Nitrogen (TN). Most states that have TN regulations require permitee's to measure TN as the composite of TKN, Nitrate and Nitrite and Ammonia. This approach is costly, time consuming, and also susceptible to variability based on the methods used for the individual analytes. We are excited to announce the introduction of a Total Nitrogen Test Method consisting of a single spectrophotometric test kit. The method has been evaluated in a multilab study and this webinar will present the results of that study as well as an overview of the savings made possible by utilizing this new method for testing Total Nitrogen.
What Will You Learn?
- Review of current methods for Total Nitrogen measurement
- Issues faced in the State of Iowa for Total Nitrogen Testing
- Introduction to a new Total Nitrogen test by MilliporeSigma and the results of a multi-lab validation study performed by Askew Scientific
- Status of method with IDNR
Who Should Watch?
Anyone involved in wastewater testing labs, including both municipal and industrial sites, focusing on maintaining compliance with state regulations.
