In the routine sewage detection, total phosphorus is one of the items to be detected. Why do you say that? What is the purpose of detecting phosphorus in water? This chapter water quality online monitoring instrument manufacturers to understand the relevant issues together with you!
Total phosphorus It is the water sample after digestion of various forms of phosphorus into orthophosphate after the determination of the result. The purpose of detecting the content of total phosphorus in water is to do no harm to the ecological environment and human health. Because phosphorus is harmful to human health, for example: washing clothes with high phosphorus is irritating to human skin, which will produce symptoms such as burning pain. If it is long-term use of low doses of organophosphorus pesticides will make people chronic poisoning! Harm to the environment, excessive phosphorus will lead to the abnormal reproduction and growth of various aquatic organisms, which is called water eutrophication! Although eutrophication is a common natural process of water bodies, the process of this experience is tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years later, but after the water is polluted, it will promote this process to happen in advance!
If a large amount of total phosphorus continuously enters the water body, it will promote the activity of various aquatic organisms, thus stimulating their abnormal reproduction, and the consequence is that the algae will become thicker and thicker on the water surface, resulting in the death of organisms in the water that cannot see the sun. Bacteria at the bottom of the water multiply rapidly by feeding on the dead algae. A large number of bacteria will consume oxygen in the water, making the water oxygenated, the organisms that need oxygen to survive will die, and then the bacteria will die, the consequences can be imagined! Then a large amount of total phosphorus continuously enters the source of the water body, which is caused by sewage discharge.
To sum up, we can learn! It is necessary to use TP-8000 total phosphorus online analyzer to detect the total phosphorus in water at sewage discharge outlet.
