EPA 9060A

Total Organic Carbon

Applicability: EPA Method 9060A, “Total Organic Carbon (TOC) in Water and Wastes,” is applicable to the determination of total organic carbon in various aqueous matrices, including groundwater, surface water, saline water, and domestic and industrial wastewaters. It is most suitable for samples where the TOC concentration is at or above 1 mg/L.

Purpose: EPA Method 9060A is designed to determine the Total Organic Carbon (TOC) content in water and waste samples. This method is crucial for assessing water quality and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. It is used in various applications, including environmental monitoring, wastewater treatment, and pharmaceutical and semiconductor manufacturing.
