Evaluation of a Method for the Determination of Inorganic Carbon (Carbonates) in Solid Wastes.

摘要

An existing A.O.A.C. method for determining carbonate carbon was found feasible for solid waste samples. Such samples with carbonate carbon contents from 0.05to 8.00% have been precisely and accurately analyzed. Before the carbonate carbon contents is determined,all solid waste samples must be dried,ground to less than 2mm. and thoroughly mixed. Between 1to 5grams of sample were used in each determination and produced satisfactory precise and accurate data.
