A Simple Method for Eliminating the Interference of CH3COONa in NO3--N Determination by UV Spectrophotometric Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to solve the interference of CH3COONa on measuring nitrate nitrogen (NO3--N) concentration by ultra-violet (UV) spectrophotometric method, a series of tests were done. The solution with different concentrations of CH3COONa was added respectively to a set of standard solutions, which the concentrations of NO3--N were already known, and the interference degrees of CH3COONa on the measurement of NO3- by UV spectrophotometric method were examined. The results indicated that the interference degrees of CH3COONa on the measurement of NO3--N concentrations were proportional to the concentrations of CH3COONa in the standard solutions. Based on the tests, a set of correction curves was established, and the accurate NO3--N concentrations can be determined by the correction curves conveniently and quickly.
