Water quality — Determination of available free cyanide (pH 6) using flow injection analysis (FIA), gas-diffusion and amperometric detection

Qualité de l'eau — Dosage des cyanures libres disponibles (pH 6) par analyse avec injection en flux (FIA), diffusion de gaz et détection ampérométrique

Abstract / scope

ISO 17690:2015 specifies methods for the determination of available free cyanide at pH 6 in various types of water (such as ground, drinking, surface, leachate, waste water, and metallurgical processing waste water) with cyanide concentrations from 5 µg/l to 500 µg/l expressed as cyanide ions in the undiluted sample. The range of application can be changed by varying the operation conditions, e.g. by using a different injection volume.
