D2 Chromate Cr(VI) with IC
General remarksChromium is considered as an essential trace element. Only the compounds ofhexavalent chromium are toxic because of their oxidative effect on cell constitu-ents. Cr(VI) has mutagenic and carcinogenic properties and can cause skinallergies. It is therefore important to know the chromium content of the differenttypes of water.
The chromium content of surface waters ranges from 0.2 to 20 g/L. The require-ments for drinking water depend on local legislation, the limiting values rangingfrom

D2 Silicate dissolved silicic acid with IC
General remarksSilicates are salts of silicic acid and form a large group of minerals. The earth's
crust cosists to more than 90%, the earth's mantle almost completely of silicates.The silicates occur in dissolved form in virtually all types of water and theirdetermination, for example in drinking water, is of considerable interest.
The silicate ion is also an indicator of the quality of ultrapure water as it is one ofthe first ions that appear in the purified water when the ion exchangers used forwater purification becomes exhausted. The determination at very low levels ofconcentration is therefore very important, for example in thermal power plants.
As silicates are salts of a very weak acid they dissociate only in the alkaline regionand there can be detected by conductivity without chemical suppression.
For the determination of silicate in the low ppb range the preconcentration tech-nique is used.
Recommended accessoriesMIC-1 Advanced IC system
Anion exchange column, e.g. Hamilton PRP-X 100 (6.1005.000) plus HamiltonPRP-X 100 precolumn cartridge (6.1005.020), Phenomenex Star Ion A300(6.1005.100)
Preconcentration column, e.g. Hamilton PRP-X 100 precolumn cartridge(6.1005.020), Metrosep A PCC 1 anion preconcentration column (6.1006.300)
ReagentsUse only reagents of highest purity and ultrapure water having a specific resis-tance >18 MOhm cm.
Silicate standard: (silicate) = 1 g/L
Weigh 0.100 g pure silicate (SiO 2) into a 100-mL volumetric flask, dissolve in0.2% NaOH, make up to 100 mL with 0.2% NaOH and mix.
Eluent containing Na 2CO 3 and NaHCO 3, concentrations depend on the column
usedSample preparation methods

D2 Sulfite, sulfate and thiosulfate with IC
General remarksWith ion chromatography the determination of the sulfur species sulfite, sulfateand thiosulfate can be carried out in one run. This determination is of high interestin the analysis of wastewaters, especially in the paper industry, where sulfate- and
sulfite-containing solutions are used for paper production.

ReagentsUse only reagents of highest purity and ultrapure water having a specific resis-tance >18 MOhm cm.
Sulfite standard: (sulfite) = 1 g/L
Stabilizing the sulfite requires addition of formaldehyde or 2-propanol (isopro-panol). Accordingly, there are two possibilities of preparing the standard:
a) Weigh 0.157 g sodium sulfite into a 100-mLvolumetric flask and dissolve in0.2 mmol/L NaOH and 0.037% formaldehyde. Make up to 100 mL with thismixture and mix.
b) Weigh 0.157 g sodium sulfite into a 100-mLvolumetric flask and dissolve inultrapure water. Add 10 mL 2-propanol, make up to the mark with ultrapurewater and mix.
Sulfate standard: (sulfate) = 1 g/L; commercially available.
Thiosulfate standard: (thiosulfate) = 1 g/L
Weigh 0.222 g sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate into a 100-mLvolumetric flask,dissolve in ultrapure water, make up to 100 mL with ultrapure water and mix.
Eluent containing Na 2CO 3 and NaHCO 3; possibly also acetone; concentrationsdepend on the column used
Suppressor regenerant solution: c(H 2SO 4) = 50 mmol/L
Suppressor rinsing solution: ultrapure water (specific resistance >18 MOhm cm)
Sample preparation methods All water samples should be filtered through a filter with 0.45 m pore size.
As wastewaters can contain considerable amounts of organic substances, anadditional sample preparation using an RP cartridge (6.1012.000) is recom-mended.
AnalysisQuantitation is carried out by means of an external multipoint calibration coveringthe concentration range concerned. To obtain the required concentrations, theabove-mentioned standards are diluted with ultrapure water. To stabilize the di-luted sulfite standards, formaldehyde (0.0037%) or 2-propanol (1%) must beadded to them.

The determination of weak organic acids such as acetic acid or propionic acid iscarried out using ion exclusion chromatography. The completely dissociated acidsare not retained on the stationary phase by Donnan exclusion and therefore elutewithin the dead time.
The determination of short-chain organic acids is applied in wastewater analysis.Compared to gas chromatography, which is also used for this but requires asample derivatization step, ion exclusion chromatography has the advantage ofrequiring significantly less sample preparation effort.
The determination of the organic acids after their separation on an ion exclusioncolumn can be done with direct conductivity measurment or after inverse
suppression with lithium.

D3 Chromate/dichromate Cr(VI) with VA
General remarks
Chromium is considered as an essential trace element. Only the compounds ofhexavalent chromium are toxic because of their oxidative effect on cell constitu-ents. Cr(VI) has mutagenic and carcinogenic properties and can cause skinallergies. It is therefore important to know the chromium content of the differenttypes of water.
The chromium content of surface waters ranges from 0.2 to 20 g/L. The require-ments for drinking water depend on local legislation, the limiting values rangingfrom 10 g/L and
catalytic DP stripping voltammetry for contents ranging from 0.02 to 1.5 g/L.

Sample preparation methodsWaters moderately loaded with organic substances:
Adjust the sample to a pH value of 5...7. Transfer 10 mL of the resulting mixtureinto a quartz reaction vessel, add 10 L w(H2O 2) = 30% and digest in the UV Di-gester for 1 h at 90 C. Add another 10 L H2O 2 and digest for another 30 min.
Wastewater heavily loaded with organic substances:
This type of wastewater requires wet digestion (e.g. with H 2SO 4 / H 2O 2). After thedigested solution has cooled down, add 10 mL ultrapure water and 2 drops ofc(KMnO 4) = 0.02 mol/L and heat to boiling. Dropwise add permanganate solutionuntil the pink color remains. Keep the solution boiling for approx. 5 min while main-taining the total volume constant by adding small amounts of ultrapure water. Be-fore it has cooled down, adjust the solution to pH = 5...9 with KOH solution. Rinsethe solution into the polarographic vessel with ultrapure water.
Polarographic analysisPreneutralize the sample or the digested solution with KOH solution to pH = 7...8.
To 10 mL sample or digested solution in the polarographic vessel add 20 Lethylenediamine, 150 L acetic acid, 300 L KOH and 200 L ammonia. Ifnecessary adjust the pH value to approx. 9.5 by adding KOH solution or aceticacid, deaerate with nitrogen and record the DP polarogram applying the followingconditions:

D3 Cyanide with VA
General remarks
The determination of cyanides in waters (e.g. seepage water, electroplatingwastewater before and after detoxification) is highly important. Cyanideconcentrations as low as 50 g/L can be lethal for fish. Depending on thelegislation for drinking water, the maximum allowable cyanide concentrations varybetween 50 and 100 g/L.
The following methods will be described:
DP polarography for cyanide contents of 0.1...10 mg/L and
DP stripping voltammetry for cyanide contents 10...100 g/L.
Recommended accessories797 VA Computrace with Dosino
ReagentsUse only reagents of the highest purity and ultrapure water.
Cyanide standard: (CN -) = 100 mg/LDissolve first 0.6 g KOH and then 0.2503 g KCN in ultrapure water, make up to1 L with ultrapure water and mix.
Cyanide standard: (CN -) = 10 mg/L
Transfer 0.6 g KOH into a 100-mL volumetric flask and dissolve in approx. 50mL ultrapure water. Add 10.0 mL (CN ) = 100 mg/L, make up to the mark withultrapure water and mix. Fresh solution has to be prepared daily.
Ground electrolyte:Dissolve 100 g KOH and 123 g H 3BO 3 in approx. 750 mL ultrapure water.Leave to cool down, make up to 1 L with ultrapure water and mix.
Sample preparation methodsIf only the free cyanide is of interest, the samples can be used directly.
Otherwise one has to distinguish between easily released cyanides (e.g. fromKCN) and the total cyanide content, which also comprises the CN complexes ofheavy metals. Digestion and separation occur according to DIN 38405 D13/D14and are described in detail in Application Bulletin no. 46 Potentiometricdetermination of cyanide.
For the voltammetric analyses, the ground electrolyte is used instead of the NaOHabsorption solution.

D3 Sulfides and hydrogen sulfide with VA
General remarks
Sulfides and/or H 2S can be present in reductive ground water, in seepage waterand, under anaerobic conditions, at the bottom of surface waters. Sulfides arevolatile and easily oxidized by atmospheric oxygen. Care has therefore to be takenduring sampling: the samples must be made alkaline with NaOH and be wellsealed for transport.
Sulfides can be easily determined with stripping-voltammetric methods.
The method is suitable for contents ranging from 0.3 to 20 g/L.

E2 Cation determination with IC
Analysis of water samples and water constituents with Metrohm instruments 117
Sample preparation methodsThe samples have to be filtered, for example using Minisart (Sartorius) or dispos-able filter supports (Whatman, formerly Schleicher & Schuell) with a pore size of0.45 m or less. Even seemingly clear solutions can contain very fine particles that
damage the column.The samples can be filtered automatically applying ultrafiltration.
At higher concentrations it may be necessary to dilute the samples.
For water samples containing a high proportion of organic substances we recom-mend to apply dialysis as a sample preparation step that can be completelyautomated.
The pH value of the samples should be adjusted to pH 2.5 by means of nitric acid.
Metrohm offers fully automated IC systems that carry out inline ultrafiltration, inlinedialysis (patented) and also inline dilution. The MISP systems (Metrohm InlineSample Preparation) simplify and improve sample preparation significantly.
AnalysisWhen working in the concentration range 10 ppb to 100 ppm, one normally injects10...100 L sample, which is separated on the cation exchanger column followedby indirect conductometric detection.
If lower detection limits are to be achieved, the sample volume must be increasedmarkedly. Consider, however, that larger sample volumes mean a larger waterpeak, which affects the evaluation of the early-eluting peaks.
Sample preconcentration is a simple method for lowering the detection limit byseveral orders of magnitude. The sample loop is replaced by a preconcentrationcolumn. An increased sample volume, e.g. 10 mL, is passed over the preconcen-tration column, which contains essentially the same material as the separationcolumn. This ensures that all cations contained in the sample solution to be ana-lyzed (e.g. ultrapure water) are kept back on the column and are preconcentrated.The preconcentrated analyte ions are then brought to the separation column bythe eluent flowing counter-current.
Quantitation is performed by means of an external calibration in the concentrationrange concerned. A three-point calibration is recommended for the determination
of cations.

E2 Transition metals zinc, manganese etc. with IC
General remarksThe determination of transition metals such as zinc, manganese, nickel, etc., can
be carried out by separation on a cation exchange column followed by indirectconductivity detection. This method has the advantage that alkali and alkaline-earth metals can be determined simultaneously.
There is also the possibility of determining the transition metals by means ofUV/VIS detection after post-column derivatization with PAR. The metals formcolored complexes with the PAR reagent, these can be detected at 520 nm. Asthis method is very selective for the transition metals, these can be determinedwithout interferences also in samples with very high alkali-metal concentrations.
Both methods will be described briefly.

E3 VA methods: IntroductionMetrohm has been concerned with voltammetric water analysis for many years.Progress has been remarkable since the introduction of the Polarecord E 261 in1957. This is true for instrument technology as well as for keeping pace withgeneral trends: lower detection limits, higher precision, validation, etc. Today,metal traces down to the ppt level can be determined using voltammetric methods.Further advantages of voltammetric methods are species analyses and last notleast the relatively modest acquisition and running costs.
The important parameters are the type of metal ions, their concentration and thetype of water to be analyzed (wastewater, ground, drinking, lake, river, sea or rainwater). Concentrations ranging from ppt to ppm can be determined. Whenanalyzing surface waters, species analyses are very important to answer thequestion: Are the metals present as free ions or as metal complexes?Voltammetry is an elegant, specific, economic and quite modern tool that allows toanswer this question. The examples given here cannot show the whole spectrumof voltammetric applications but restrict themselves to analysis methods fordetermining the total metal content at the trace level.
Voltammetric methods also allow to determine other species that occur in water attrace levels such as nitrophenols, TNT, iodide/iodate, iodoform, NTA, EDTA, thio-sulfate, organo-tin compounds, etc.
Before we start let's consider a list of recent literature references. This list is by nomeans complete. It is rather meant to demonstrate the broad application spectrumof voltammetric methods in water analysis:

ReagentsUse only reagents of highest purity and ultrapure water.
Background electrolyte I: ammonium acetate buffer Add 59 mL w(CH 3COOH) = 96% and 75 mL w(NH3) = 25% to approx. 300 mLultrapure water. Leave to cool down, make up to 500 mL with ultrapure waterand mix. This solution is to be used for samples with a very low chloridecontent.Background electrolyte II: KCl-sodium acetate bufferDissolve 55.9 g KCl and 14.5 g NaOH x H 2O in approx. 300 mL ultrapure water.
Add 14.7 mL w(CH 3COOH) = 96%, leave to cool down, make up to 500 mL withultrapure water and mix. This solution is used for samples with higher chloridecontents.
Standard solutions: (Me) = 1 g/L (Me = Zn, Cd, Pb, Cu)These are commercially available.
Standard solutions: (Me) = 10 mg/L or (Me) = 1 mg/L
Prepare these solutions by diluting the standard solutions (Me) = 1 g/L withultrapure water. Acidify the resulting solutions by adding 0.1 mL w(HNO 3) =65% per 100 mL solution. Ideally the first standard addition should increasethe sample peak height by 50 to 100%. In our example we used a combinedstandard solution with the following analyte concentrations (Me): Zn = 5mg/L, Cd = 0.02 mg/L, Pb = 0.05 mg/L and Cu = 0.5 mg/L.
Sample preparation After sampling, immediately filter the water samples through a microfilter (0.45 m)and acidify by adding 1 mL w(HNO 3) = 65% per 1 L.
Add 100 L w(H2O2) = 30% to 10 mL sample and digest in the UV Digester for60 min at 90 C.

E3 Determination of Fe with VA
General remarksThe method to be described is very sensitive for iron. It is especially useful forinvestigating ground, drinking, surface and cooling waters, where iron concentra-tion is important. The DPCSV method is applied to the triethanolamine complexformed. The determination limit lies at (Fe) = 5 g/L.
The constituents normally occurring in these water types do not interfere with thedetermination of iron.

E3 Determination of Mo with VA
General remarksNatural waters contain only traces of Mo. The determination limit of the presentmethod lies at (Mo) = 50 ng/L.
The method is based on the fact that the molybdate ion MoO 42 forms a complex
with 8-hydroxy-7-iodo-5-quinolinesulfonic acid (H 2L). This complex, which can bewritten as MoO 2L22 , is adsorbed at the Hg electrode and electrochemicallyreduced to the Mo(V) complex. The protons present in the solution oxidize theMo(V) immediately to the Mo(VI) complex, which is then again available for elec-trochemical reduction. This catalytic reaction is the reason for the high sensitivityof the method.
