SEIBOLD - Online Analyser for Copper

Industry. Copper is used for in gelectroplating and semiconducting industry

Natural water. Copper is found in natural surface waters at an average concentration of 0.002 mg/L, ranging from 0.001 to 0.1 mg/L, Cu in seawater is at the upper end of the range.

Drinking water. Copper concentrations in drinking-water vary widely, with the primary source most often being the corrosion of interior copper plumbing. A guideline value of 1.5 mg/litre was recommended for copper in drinkingwater.

Toxicity. Copper is not very toxic to animals and humans but can be toxic to some fish, many invertebrates and microbes, particularly fungi, algae, and bacteria.

Metal is measured as chelate complex between metal ions in the waste water and sensitive spectrophotometric reagent dye. Change of the intensity of the visible light throughout cuvette containing formed metal complex is directly proportional to metal concentration.
