Device and method for detecting volatile dissolved matter

摘要

An apparatus for detecting a volatile dissolved substance includes a sample vessel 1 capable of holding therein an approximately fixed amount of liquid A, B with leaving a space at an upper inner section thereof a nozzle 4 capable of blowing off bubbles into the liquid held in the sample vessel, and a pressurized gas feeding device L capable of feeding pressurized gas to the nozzle for the blowing of the bubbles. Within a communication passage 5 communicating with the upper section of the sample vessel, there is exposed a detecting portion of a sensor S capable of detecting a volatile component, so that the sensor can detect the volatile component which has evaporated from the liquid in the sample vessel and entered the communication passage. The apparatus further includes a liquid vessel 2, 3 capable of holding the liquid therein, a feeding mechanism D capable of feeding the liquid of the liquid vessel to the sample vessel and an overflow mechanism E for causing an amount of the liquid exceeding the approximately fixed amount to overflow from the sample vessel to the outside of the vessel.
