This European Standard gives guidance for the deterrnination of organic carbon in drinking water, ground water,
surface water, sea water and waste water. It deals with definitions, interferences, reagents, and the sample
pretreatment of water sampies with a content of organic carbon ranging from 0,3 rngli to 1000 mgll while the
lower value is only appiicable in special cases, for example drinking water, measured with instruments capable
of rneasuring these low levels. Higher concentrations rnay be determined after appropriate diiution. This
European Standard does not deal with the instrument-dependent aspects.
In addition to organic carbon the water sample may contain carbon dioxide or ions of carbonic acid. Prior to the
TOC determination, it is essential that this inorganic carbon is removed by purging the acidified sarnple with a
gas which is free from CO, and organic compounds. Alternatively, both total carbon (TC) and total inorganic
carbon (TIC) rnay be determined and the organic carbon content (TOC) may be calcuiated by subtracting the
total inorganic carbon from the TC. This rnethod is particularly suitable for samples in which the total inorganic
carbon is iess than the TOC.
Purgeable organic substances, such as benzene, toluene, cyclohexane, and chloroform may partly escape upon
stripping. In presence of these substances the TOC contrentration is determined separately, or the differential
method (TC - TIC = TOC) may be applied, By using the differential rnethod, the value of the TOC should be
higher than the TIC, or at least of similar size.
Cyanide, cyanate, and particlec of elemental carbon (soot) when present in the sarnple, will be determined
together with the organic carbon.
NOTE: In presence of humic material low values may occur when UV-radiation is used.
