EN ISO 14402 Water Quality, Standard Test for Determination of Phenol Index by Flow Analysis

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN ISO 14402 standard. This International standard specifies two methods (in undiluted sample) for the determination of the phenol index in waters of different origin (such as groundwater, surface water, leachate and wastewater) at mass concentrations of 0,01 mg/l to 1 mg/l. In special cases, the application range can be adapted by changing the operating conditions.

Methods for determining water quality using flow analysis and automated wet chemical procedures are particularly suitable for processing large sample batches at high analysis frequency.

A distinction is needed between flow injection analysis (FIA) and continuous flow analysis (CFA). Both methods involve automatic dosing of the sample into a flow system (manifold); where the analytes in the sample react with the reagent solutions as they pass through the manifold. Sample preparation can be integrated into the manifold. The reaction product is measured in a flow detector.

The phenol index is an analytical rule. It represents a group of aromatic compounds that form colored condensation products under certain reaction conditions. The analytical result is expressed in terms of phenol concentration.

This International standard describes two methods: determination of phenol index after extraction (without distillation) and determination of phenol index after distillation (without extraction).

It should be explored whether and to what extent certain issues will require the specification of additional marginal conditions.
