WARNING — Persons using this European Standard should be familiar with usual laboratory practice. This European Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions. IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this European Standard be carried out by suitably trained staff.
Compounds with nitrogen bound in N-N, N-O linkages and some heterocycles (pyridines) are only partially determined. The limit of detection (LOD) is usually 0,03 % nitrogen, and the limit of quantification (LOQ) is 0,1 % nitrogen (using 0,25 mol/l sulfuric acid for titration). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

To raise the temperature, potassium sulfate is added and e.g. a mixture of titanium dioxide and copper sulfate is used as a catalyst. After adding sodium hydroxide to the digestion solution the produced ammonium is evaporated by distillation as ammonia. This is condensed in the cooling system and flows into a conical flask with boric acid solution (or diluted sulfuric acid). This solution is analyzed for ammonia by titration with sulfuric or hydrochloric acid. SIST EN 16169:2013
