ASTM-D516

Sulfate Ion in Water

Applicability: ASTM D516 is a standard test method, a turbidimetric method, used to determine the concentration of sulfate ion (SO4^2-) in water samples, typically in the range of 1 to 40 mg/L.

Purpose: The primary purpose of ASTM D516 is to provide a standardized procedure for accurately measuring sulfate levels in various types of water, including drinking, ground, and surface water.
