Analyses of Drinking and Surface Waters

Introduction
Water quality is determined by its chemical composition,
its bacteriological condition and any traces of organic
and inorganic compounds that may be present. There
are national and international standards (DIN, WHO,
ISO,...) as well as legal requirements for drinking water
composition.
Service waters, such as boiler feed water, must also
comply with certain quality specifications. Below we
describe selected methods for determination of the
chemical composition of drinking and surface waters.
Acid Capacity CA8.2:
The amount of OH- ions which is neutralized at the pH
value of 8.2 by addition of H+ ions.
Acid Capacity CA4.3:
The amount of OH- ions which is neutralized at the pH
value of 4.3 by addition of H+ ions.
Base Capacity CB8.2:
The amount of H+ ions which is neutralized at the pH
value of 8.2 by addition of OH- ions.

Conductivity
Base Capacity CB4.3:
The knowledge of the electrical conductivity of a water
allows the recognition of changes in its total ionic The amount of H+ ions which is neutralized at the pH
concen-tration by periodical measurements. The value of 4.3 by addition of OH- ions.
measurement is a "rapidly" and "easily" performed
determination.

Controlling the quality of distilled or deionized water is

one of the most important conductivity measurements.
pH Value
The pH value of a water depends mainly on the
amount-of-substance ratio of free CO2 and bicarbonate.
Its knowledge allows the explanation of some analysis
results, if e.g. bound CO2 does exist mainly as
bicarbonate or carbonate or whether the water is in
calcareous equilibrium.
The calcareous equilibrium describes the tendency of
water to calcify or to form calcareous deposits - an
essential characteristic for the construction of water
pipes.
Total Hardness
The hardness of a water is the amount-of-substance
concentration of calcium and magnesium in mmol/L
(see DIN standard 38 409-H6).
Samples
The following Swiss waters have been analyzed:
• Tap water from Schwerzenbach (Tap water "S")
• Tap water from Dietlikon (Tap water "D")
• Tap water from Basel (Tap water "B")
• Surface water from the Töss river
• Spring water from Tarasp (Spring "T")

Acid and Base Capacity (formerly m and p value)

The determination of the acid and base capacity serves
as a basis to calculate the free carbonic acid (CO2) and
the bicarbonate concentration in drinking waters (see
DIN standard 38 409-H7).

Method Principle
The calcium and magnesium content is determined
with the first submethod (total hardness). Both
compounds are complexed at pH10 by EDTA. The
endpoint is indicated by the phototrode: the color of the
Erio T indicator changes from violet to blue.
The calcium content is determined with the second
sub-method. Mg(OH)2 precipitates at pH12 and thus
only calcium is complexed by EDTA. The endpoint is
indicated by the phototrode: the color of the murexide
indicator changes from red to violet.
The magnesium content is calculated.
ST20A
The sample changer is used
• because it saves time,
• because the phototrode should be cleaned with an
acidic solution (0.01 mol/L HCl) after each sample
determi-nation to obtain good results (its mirror is
coated by a thin color layer due to the indicators):
Cleaning is easier by automatic conditioning.
If there is no sample changer, change the titration
stand for both SAMPLE functions and cut all
CONDITIONING functions.
Phototrode
The phototrode DP660 can be used instead of the
DP550. In this case
– change the EQP range of the 2nd TITRATION function:
Limit A = 1000, limit B = 100.
– use 0.1 mL of 0.1% calcon in ethanol as indicator
for the Ca2+ determination.
Note: Always check the transmission of the phototrode
in deion. H20 before titrations: Set it to 1000 mV.
Method Functions
Both MEASURE functions and the 2nd and 4th CALCULA-
TION functions are not mandatory for the hardness and
calcium determination. They only serve to check the
pH of the solution after titration with EDTA.
Buffer
NH3 buffer can be used instead of borate buffer. We
used borate buffer
• because there is no contamination by NH3 vapors,
• because the mL amount to reach pH10 is less than
with NH3 buffer.
Borate buffer
– Weigh in 40 g of NaOH pellets and dissolve in
approx. 500 mL deion. H2O (Caution: solution
gets hot!).
Determinations in Water
– Weigh in 65 g of boric acid (H3BO3), pour into
NaOH solution while stirring and let it dissolve.
– Pour into a 1 L flask and fill up with deion. H2O.
Note: We recommend to use NH3 buffer for the standard-
ization of EDTA.
Indicators
Both indicators are prepared as solutions,
• because their addition by a micropipette is controlled
and easier to handle than a trituration.
• because triethanolamine can be added to the indicator
solutions in order to mask iron (necessary if the iron
content > 5 mg/L).
Eriochrome black T
– Prepare a 0.1% solution with 99% ethanol (if iron
has to be masked, prepare a mixture of 2:3 ethanol/
triethanolamine).
– Change solutions every three weeks!
Murexide
– Prepare a 0.1% solution with deion. H2O (if iron has
to be masked, prepare a mixture of 2:3 H2O/
triethanolamine).
– Change solutions every four days!
Calcon or calconcarboxylic acid can be used instead
of murexide; but both indicators are only applicable in
the presence of magnesium (you may add some
milligrams of MgEDTA).
TITRATION Functions (EDTA): Predispensing
We chose the incremental titrant addition because the
titration curves exhibit a rather sharp kink before the
equivalence point. Therefore, predispensing parameters
like "to slope" and "to potential" are too dangerous to
set in order to obtain reliable results. We recommend
to perform a test titration for the water in question with
each submethod (see page 11 and 12) and then enter
the appropriate predispensing volume.
EDTA: 0.1 mol/L or 0.01 mol/L?
The EDTA consumption for the determination of tap
water "S" is small (0.6 to 0.75 mL). Therefore titrations
with 0.01 mol/L EDTA were carried out (Ca2+ content
only). However, the relative standard deviation showed
no difference in precision.
If the total hardness is less than 1 mmol/L, the use of
the 0.01 or 0.02 mol/L EDTA is mandatory. In this case
the titration parameters have to be modified: increase
"∆V [mL]", decrease the "threshold".
DL67
As the buffer solution and NaOH are installed on the
same burette drive, a request appears to change
resources after the total hardness determination.

* The Ca2+/Mg2+ content of tap waters is always changing, because dictated by requirements various springs are
mixed together. Thus results cannot be compared (see page 9, M069).

Pretreatment of some waters

The tap waters did not need any pretreatment. We did dilute
• the surface water (1:1 with deion. H2O). The total • the "aproz" mineral water (1:5 with deion. H2O). The
hard-ness determination caused no problems, the problem was the same as with the surface water.
Ca2+ deter-mination did: after the NaOH addition a No disturbing precipitation took place after dilution.

 This application bulletin represents selected, possible application examples. These have been tested with all possible
care in our lab with the analytical instrument mentioned in the bulletin. The experiments were conducted and the
resulting data evaluated based on our current state of knowledge.
However, the application bulletin does not absolve you from personally testing its suitability for your intended methods,
instruments and purposes. As the use and transfer of an application example are beyond our control, we cannot accept
