TKN Determination in Water, Wastewater, and Sludge

Using the Kjeldahl method

Written byVELP Scientifica

The composition and nitrogen compounds are particularly important for wastewater treatment. The TKN value, for example, is important for biological wastewater treatment. It has to be determined during the individual process steps for purifying the wastewater in order to monitor and possibly adjust the process.

In this application note, learn about the benefits of the Kjeldahl method, which include: 

Determining Nitrogen in Water, Wastewater, and Sludge
  • Determining nitrogen in water, wastewater, and sludge
  • High level of precision and reproducibility
  • Maximum productivity and full automation
  • Reliable and easy
  • Time-saving
  • Moderate running costs
