How Do You Know There’s Too Much Copper in the Water?
Date:2024-10-18 Browse: 3

Copper (Cu) is a metallic element. When it comes to metal, in fact, many metal elements are indispensable components of the human body, but if the amount is too much, it will hurt the human body!

For example: copper. Normal human body generally contains copper, these copper all over the body tissues and organs, the right amount of copper for human health is crucial. If the human body if the lack of copper can cause anemia, hair abnormalities, bone and artery abnormalities, resulting in brain disorders. Excess can cause cirrhosis of the liver, diarrhea, vomiting, movement disorders and perceptual neurological disorders.

We know that copper can enter the body mainly through the diet, skin and respiratory system. So usually drinking water containing excessive copper can also enter the human body after drinking! So it is important to know whether the copper in the water exceeds the standard! How do you know there’s too much copper in the water?

In fact, it is very simple, through the water quality monitor for real-time monitoring of copper in water! As for the detection method used, the detection method of different instruments will be different. The T8000-Cu total copper online analyzer produced by Hangzhou Moody uses optical colorimetry. After the pre-treated water sample is injected into the reaction tank by the injection pump, it first reacts with a strong acidic reagent to oxidize all forms of copper in the water sample into bivalent copper ions, and then adds a reducing reagent to reduce the bivalent copper ions into cuprous ions, and then adds a masking agent to eliminate the interference of coexisting ions in the water sample, and then adds a characteristic color developing agent for color developing reaction. In the measuring range, the degree of color change is proportional to the concentration of copper in the water, and the content of copper in the water sample can be calculated by measuring the degree of color change. So as to determine whether the content of copper in the water exceeds the standard, and be treated!
