SEIBOLD - Online Analyser for Nickel

Drinking water. Sources of nickel in ambient waters include physical and chemical degradation of rocks and soils, deposition of atmospheric nickelcontaining particulate matter and discharges from industrial processes. A health-based guideline value of Nickel is 0.02 mg/litre.

Toxicity. Inhaled nickel compounds are carcinogenic to humans and that metallic nickel is possibly carcinogenic. Allergic contact dermatitis is the most prevalent effect of nickel in the general population.

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.
