3. Why is Testing for Ammonia in Water Crucial?

Testing for ammonia in water is vital to ensure environmental safety and ecosystem health. High levels of ammonia can indicate water pollution, signaling the presence of harmful substances.

Sources of Ammonia

Ammonia originates from various industrial activities, including the production of fertilizers, animal feed, plastics, paper, and rubber. These industries can release ammonia into water bodies, leading to contamination.


Impact on Aquatic Life

In aquatic environments, ammonia is highly toxic to fish and other marine organisms. Fish, for example, excrete ammonia directly into water, but excessive levels can become fatal. Monitoring ammonia concentrations helps prevent such adverse effects and maintains biodiversity.


Environmental Indicators

Ammonia levels above 0.1 mg/L usually suggest polluted conditions. Regular testing allows for the timely identification of pollution sources. It assists in adopting corrective measures to protect water quality and aquatic habitats.

By understanding ammonia's sources and effects, industries and environmental agencies can implement better waste management practices, ensuring the protection and sustainability of vital water resources.


4. Can the Ammonium ISE Sensor Be Used in Saltwater Environments?

No, the ammonium ISE sensor is designed specifically for freshwater applications and is not suitable for use in saltwater environments.

Design Specifications:

The ammonium ISE sensors are calibrated and optimized for freshwater conditions. Saltwater, with its high concentration of ions and salts, can interfere with the sensor’s accuracy and performance. 

Potential Interferences:

Saltwater contains a variety of ions that can compete with the ammonium ions you wish to measure. This interference can lead to inaccurate readings or even damage the sensor over time. 

Alternative Options:

For measurements in saltwater environments, consider sensors specifically designed for marine applications. These are engineered to handle the conductivity and ion composition unique to seawater.
