After pure water is used, it changes its original physical or chemical properties, thus becoming wastewater containing various types of impurities. Chemical wastewater refers to some process wastewater, cooling water, site flushing water and other types of wastewater discharged during chemical production. If these wastewater are discharged directly without treatment, it will cause the originally normal water bodies to be polluted. Considering further, it will also endanger human health and affect the normal production of industry and agriculture. Therefore, it is very necessary to do a good job in the detection of chemical wastewater!

So, What is the TOC Detected in Chemical Wastewater?

TOC, or Total Organic Carbon, is used to represent the content of organic matter in water in terms of carbon content, and the result is expressed in terms of the mass solubility of carbon. Carbon is a common component of all organic substances and an important part of their composition. If the TOC in water is very high, it indicates that the content of organic substances in the water is also high. Therefore, TOC can be used as an indicator to assess organic carbon pollution in water.

So, What kind of Instrument is Needed to Detect TOC in Water?

The TOC-8000 – (Total Organic Carbon) TOC online analyzer produced by Hangzhou Modi is used to monitor the TOC content in water, and it employs the non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) colorimetric method. This analyzer is not only used for monitoring chemical wastewater, but also can be applied to some water sources with TOC, such as pure water and water for injection.

In addition, it should be noted that TOC is only one of the items in water quality monitoring. To ensure the safety of water quality, it is necessary to treat and monitor all harmful indicators in wastewater and sewage, and ensure that each indicator passes the standard.
