Temperature Determination (SM 2550 B Method)

Temperature Determination (SM 2550 B Method)

Within the scope of the National Index of Environmental Methods (NEMI), which creates a database containing environmental methods, protocols, statistical and analytical methods and procedures and develops standard methods, the SM 2550 B method, which includes a test method for temperature determination , has been developed.

Temperature Determination (SM 2550 B Method)

The main areas where temperature readings are used are:

  • Calculation of various forms of alkalinity
  • In saturation and stability studies according to calcium carbonate
  • In salinity calculation
  • In a series of colorimetric tests
  • General laboratory operations

In general, in studies examining inland water ecosystems, water temperatures should be known as a function of depth. The high temperatures resulting from the discharge of heated water cause significant ecological effects. The water source, such as deep wells, can often only be determined by temperature measurements. Also, industrial plants often need water temperature data for process usage or heat conduction calculations.

The procedures described in this standard are designed for the examination of a wide variety of quality waters, including domestic or industrial source water, surface water, groundwater, cooling or circulation water, boiler water, boiler feed water, treated and untreated water.

In the tests and analyzes carried out in our institution, which has a wide range of technological equipment, trained and experienced staff and applies the most modern methods, national and international standards and legal regulations in force are complied with. Temperature determination (SM 2550 B method) services are among the numerous tests performed in this context.
