Description

This International Standard specifies two methods for the determination of chromium in water by atomic absorption spectrometry. The two methods are covered in separate clauses as follows: ¾ Clause 3: Determination of chromium by flame atomic absorption spectrometry; ¾ Clause 4: Determination of chromium by electrothermal atomization atomic absorption spectrometry. Clause 3 is applicable to the analysis of water and waste water when the concentration range is between 0,5 mg/l and 20 mg/l of chromium. When the concentration is below 0,5 mg/l, the determination can be carried out after carefully evaporating an acidified sample to small volume, taking care to avoid the formation of a precipitate.
NOTE The use of evaporation will increase the effect of interfering substances and therefore for concentrations below 0,1 mg/l
the method in clause 4 is given.
Clause 4 is applicable to the analysis of water and waste water when the concentration range is between 5 mg/l and
100 mg/l of chromium by injecting a sample volume of 20 ml. It is applicable to the determination of higher
concentrations by using a smaller sample volume.

IMPARTIALITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT
The Botswana Bureau of Standards (BOBS) understands the importance of impartiality and confidentiality in carrying out its management system certification activities. BOBS management is committed to gaining and maintaining the reputation, credibility and ultimately, confidence of its stakeholders in rendering its certification services.

When things don't work as they should, it often means that standards are absent.
