Chloride ions are one of the major
inorganic anions in water and wastewater. Although high concentrations
of chloride in water are not know to be toxic to humans, the regulation
of its concentration is mainly due to taste. It is essential to monitor
chloride concentration in boiler systems to prevent damage to metal
parts. In high levels, chloride can corrode stainless steel and be toxic
to plant life.
The Chloride level in mg/L (ppm) is determined by a mercuric nitrate
titration. The pH is lowered by addition of nitric acid. Mercuric ions
react with chloride ions to form mercuric chloride. When excess mercuric
ions are present, it complexes with diphenylcarbazone to form a pure
solution. the color change from yellow to purple determines the end
point of this titration.
The Hanna Chloride Test Kit is equipped with all you need to
determine chloride level of water. the design of the kit makes it
practically impossible to spill the reagents, causing injury or damage
to property.
