IS 3025 : Part 49 : 2024 Methods of Sampling and Test (Physical and Chemical) for Water and Wastewater - Part 49 Zinc

ICS 13.060.50

CHD 36

1 SCOPE

1.1 This standard (Part 49) prescribes the following methods for determination of zinc in water and wastewater:

a) Atomic absorption method (direct) (method is applicable in range from 0.01 mg/l of Zn to 2.0 mg/l of Zn);

b) Atomic absorption method (chelationextraction) (method is applicable in range from 1 ìg/l of Zn to 200 ìg/l of Zn);

c) Differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) (method is applicable in range from 1.0 ìg/l of Zn to 100 ìg/l of Zn); and

d) Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectroscopy methods.

1.2 Depending upon the concentration range and interference levels, choice of the method is made. When the concentration levels are below 200 ìg/l, preconcentration is carried out either by chelation and extraction prior to atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS) or by deposition on a mercury drop electrode as in DPASV method. For dissolved zinc content, filtration through 0.45 ìm membrane filter is required.
