So let’s start with what is total nitrogen? Total nitrogen refers to the total amount of nitrogen contained in soluble and suspended matter, which is an important index to measure whether the water quality is safe. After hearing that, would anyone say that there’s too much nitrogen in the water and just ignore it? If so, what other safety indicators are needed? Therefore, once the nitrogen in water exceeds the standard, it must be monitored and treated! Otherwise it will bring some harm! Read on to learn more!
If the wastewater (nitrogen in the water exceeds the standard) is discharged without monitoring, it will cause harm to the human body and the environment. The specific harm is as follows:
· It will cause water eutrophication. That is, when the total nitrogen content in the water exceeds the standard, it will promote the excessive reproduction of algae;
· It uses up oxygen in the water. The proliferation of algae consumes a large amount of dissolved oxygen in the water, which makes the dissolved oxygen content in the water gradually decrease.
· Increase the difficulty of total nitrogen treatment. In the biological treatment method, due to the eutrophication of the water body, a large number of algae and aquatic organisms multiply to block the filter and destroy their normal operation. In this case, we can adopt the enrichment integrated equipment system to optimize the original pool.
· It is harmful to human body and organisms. Ammonia in water can be converted into nitrites and nitrates, which are potentially dangerous to the human body.
In addition, since we know that excessive nitrogen in water will bring harm to the human body and organisms, we must take certain measures to be feasible! How should we do it? It is necessary to monitor the total nitrogen in the water! Among them, the content of total nitrogen in water can be monitored by TN-8000 total nitrogen online monitor, which is through ultraviolet colorimetry, under the condition of potassium persulfate oxidizer and water sample at high temperature and pressure, various nitrogen-containing compounds in water sample are converted into nitrate through potassium persulfate oxidation digestion. Then adjust the acidity and alkalinity of the solution, the depth of the color of the solution under ultraviolet irradiation is proportional to the total nitrogen content in the water sample, and the total nitrogen content in the sample is obtained by measuring the absorbance value of the reaction product.
