Analysis of water contaminants with special reference to heavy metals / B.K. Afghan.: En36-515/52E-PDF

"Increasing deterioration of the quality of water has necessitated the analysis of water for the different parameters causing pollution. This report summarizes the methods used by the Water Chemistry Subdivision, Inland Waters Branch, to determine trace metals in water. The determination of heavy metals in water is necessary because at very low concentrations they affect the quality of water whether related to industry, fresh water fish or public health; these effects are discussed and the method of analyzing a water sample described. Three categories of instrumental techniques are given: spectroscopic, electroanalytical and miscellaneous"--Abstract, p. v.
