ASTM D5176 – Standard Test Method for Total Chemically Bound Nitrogen in Water by Pyrolysis and Chemiluminescence Detection
Description:
Significance and Use
5.1 This test method is useful for the determination of total chemically bound nitrogen in wastewaters and other waters.
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the total nitrogen content of water in concentrations from 0.5 to 1000 mg/L. Higher nitrogen concentrations may be determined by making the proper dilutions.
1.2 This test method does not determine molecular nitrogen (N2).
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
