Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Measurement
Definition Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is a measure of the sum of all inorganic and organic substances in a liquid in molecular, ionized or micro-granular colloidal suspended form. The solids must be small enough to survive filtration through a sieve the size of two micrometer. TDS solids are normally found in all freshwater systems. Major applications of TDS are: at low levels the study of ...
