Hach 10242

Nitrogen, Simplified TKN (s-TKN™)

Applicability: Hach Method 10242, also known as Simplified Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (s-TKN), is applicable for measuring Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) in water and wastewater samples. It is an approved method for regulatory reporting of TKN in some states and can be used in EPA survey and monitoring programs under the Clean Water Act. The method is designed for a TKN range of 1.0 to 16.0 mg/L, with the option to extend the detection range through sample dilution.

Purpose: Hach Method 10242 provides a simplified and efficient way to determine TKN levels, which are crucial for monitoring water quality and assessing nitrogen content in various applications. This method is particularly useful for compliance reporting and offers a streamlined approach compared to traditional TKN methods.
