The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method 300.1 specifies methods for anion analysis in drinking water. EPA Method 300.1 has two parts. Part A: analysis of common ions and Part B: analysis of inorganic disinfection byproducts. Both uses the same analysis methods.
This application shows the example analysis of artificial-drinking water (standards spiked) following the EPA Method 300.1. With an IC SI-37 4D, an anion analysis column, analysis of common anions and inorganic disinfection byproducts (oxyhalides) is completed within 30 minutes. Moreover, it is capable of providing high sensitivity analysis of oxyhalides.
Please use this column with suppressor type ion chromatography system.
