Evaluation of the Ring Oven Technique for Water Monitoring.

Abstract

Ring oven tests for ten ions that had been developed under another contract (DADA17-73-C-3112) were subjected to statistical testing to determine the procedures' accuracy, precision, operator variability, and the effects of variable factors found in the environment. Procedures for six of the ten ions (copper, calcium, magnesium, zinc, chloride and sulfate) were found to be suitable for screening of natural water; those for nitrates, fluorides, lead and iron were not suitable. Feasibility studies were also performed for ring oven techniques for the determination of pesticides in water and for general scan purposes. (Author)
