Fertilizers - Determination of cobalt, copper, iron, manganese and zinc using flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS)
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of cobalt, copper, iron, manganese and zinc in fertilizer extracts using flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS).
This method is applicable to water and aqua regia fertilizer extracts obtained according to EN 16962 and/or EN 16964.
NOTE In most cases, the presence of small quantities of organic matter will not affect determinations by FAAS and it is not necessary to apply organic matter removal.
Düngemittel - Bestimmung von Cobalt, Kupfer, Eisen, Mangan und Zink mit Flammen-Atomabsorptionsspektrometrie (FAAS)
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Cobalt, Kupfer, Eisen, Mangan und Zink in Düngemittelextrakten mit Flammen Atomabsorptionsspektrometrie (FAAS) fest.
Dieses Verfahren ist auf Wasser und Königswasserextrakte von Düngemitteln anwendbar, die nach EN 16962 und/oder EN 16964 erhalten wurden.
ANMERKUNG In den meisten Fällen wird das Vorhandensein geringer Mengen organischer Bestandteile die Bestimmung mit FAAS nicht beeinträchtigen, und es ist daher nicht notwendig, die Beseitigung organischer Bestandteile anzuwenden.

La présente norme européenne spécifie une méthode pour le dosage du cobalt, du cuivre, du fer, du manganèse et du zinc dans les extraits d’engrais par spectrométrie d’absorption atomique de flamme (FAAS).
Cette méthode est applicable aux extraits d’engrais aqueux et à l’eau régale obtenus conformément à l’EN 16962 et/ou à l’EN 16964.
NOTE Dans la plupart des cas, la présence de petites quantités de matière organique n’a aucune incidence sur les dosages par FAAS et il n’est pas nécessaire d’appliquer l’élimination de la matière organique.

Overview
EN 16965:2018 - “Fertilizers - Determination of cobalt, copper, iron, manganese and zinc using flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS)” is a CEN European Standard that specifies a validated analytical procedure for measuring Co, Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn in fertilizer extracts. The method applies to water and aqua regia extracts prepared according to EN 16962 and EN 16964. It defines the principle (FAAS), sample preparation, calibration, interference control and reporting requirements for routine laboratory use.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Analytical principle: Quantification by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) after appropriate dilution of fertilizer extracts.
- Applicable extracts: Water-soluble and total (aqua regia) micro‑nutrient extracts prepared per EN 16962 / EN 16964.
- Interference control: Background correction, matrix matching and addition of a releasing agent (lanthanum) to minimize refractory compound formation and matrix effects. Note: small amounts of organic matter generally do not require removal.
- Calibration: Example calibration solutions given (0; 0.5; 1; 2; 5 mg/L - extendable for Fe and Mn up to 10 mg/L). Care to keep absorbance < 1 (preferably ≤ 0.7).
- Instrument settings: Recommended element wavelengths are provided (e.g., Co 240.7 nm, Cu 324.8 nm, Fe 248.3 nm, Mn 279.6 nm, Zn 213.8 nm). Typical integration/delay times and flame (air–acetylene) instructions are specified.
- Reagents and preparation: Analytical‑grade acids (HNO3, HCl), lanthanum solution as releasing agent, and certified stock standards.
- Quality and precision: The method’s precision was assessed in an inter‑laboratory study (2015; 23 laboratories, 11 countries, 8 samples). Repeatability and reproducibility criteria are defined and reported in the standard.
- Calculations & reporting: Formulae for converting measured concentrations to mass fraction in fertilizer (percent) and instructions for blank correction and dilution factor calculation.
Applications
- Routine quality control testing of fertilizer products for regulatory compliance and labeling.
- Regulatory laboratories verifying micro‑nutrient content against EU/ national fertilizer rules.
- Manufacturers and contract testing labs implementing standardised FAAS methods for product release.
- Research and monitoring where reliable determination of Co, Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn in fertilizer extracts is required.
Who should use this standard
- Analytical chemists in fertilizer testing laboratories
- QA/QC managers at fertilizer production facilities
- Accreditation bodies and regulators enforcing test method harmonisation
- Contract testing service providers

= 1,18 g/ml. 6.4 Mixed solution, 0,8 mol/l nitric acid and 1,8 mol/l hydrochloric acid. Add 150 ml of hydrochloric acid (6.3) and 56 ml nitric acid (6.2) to 800 ml of water (6.1). 6.5 Standard stock solutions, cobalt, copper, iron, manganese and zinc standard stock solutions,
= 1 000 mg/l for each element. Both single-element stock solutions and multi-element stock solutions with adequate specification, stating the acid used and the preparation technique, are commercially available. These solutions are considered to be stable for more than one year, but in reference to guaranteed stability, the recommendations of the manufacturer should be considered. Alternatively, the stock solutions may be prepared by dissolution of high purity metals. 6.5.1 Standard solution,
= 100 mg/l of element. Pipette 10 ml of the appropriate standard stock solution (6.5) into a 100 ml volumetric flask. Add 10 ml of diluted nitric acid (6.2.1), fill to the mark with water and mix well. This solution is used to prepare spiked test solutions and calibration solutions. 6.6 Lanthanum solution,
= 10 g/l lanthanum. Place 11,73 g of lanthanum oxide (La2O3) in a 500 ml beaker, add 150 ml of water and slowly add 140 ml of diluted nitric acid (6.2.1). After complete dissolution transfer the solution quantitatively into a 1 000 ml volumetric flask and then make up to 1 l with water (6.1) and mix thoroughly. The substance concentration of this solution amounts to approximately 0,5 mol/l nitric acid. Alternatively, lanthanum chloride, lanthanum sulfate or lanthanum nitrate may be used. Alternative procedures: Dissolve 26,7 g of lanthanum chloride heptahydrate (LaCl3 .7 H2O) or 31,2 g of lanthanum nitrate hexahydrate [La(NO3)3 .6 H2O] or 26,2 g of lanthanum sulfate nonahydrate [La2(SO4)3 .9 H2O] in 150 ml of water (6.1), then add 100 ml of diluted nitric acid (6.2.1). Allow to dissolve and then make up to 1 l with water (6.1). Mix thoroughly. The substance concentration of this solution amounts to approximately 0,5 mol/l nitric acid. SIST EN 16965:2018
