ANNOUNCEMENT
Ministry of Environmental Protection of PRC
No. 16, 2012
In order to implement Environmental Protection Law of the People 's Republic of
China, to protect environment, to protect human health, to standardize
environmental monitoring, it hereby approves that five standards - Determination
of soil, ammonia nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen Extraction of
potassium chloride solution - Spectrophotometric method, as national
environmental protection standards and to be issued.
The names and numbers of standards are as follows.
1. Soil-Determination of ammonium, nitrite and nitrate by extraction with
potassium chloride solution -spectrophotometric methods (HJ 634-2012);
2. Soil - Determination of water-soluble and acid-soluble sulfate - Gravimetric
method (HJ 635-2012);
3. Water quality. Determination of total nitrogen. Alkaline potassium persulfate
digestion UV spectrophotometric method (HJ 636-2012);
4. Water quality- Determination of petroleum oils and animal and vegetable
oils- Infrared spectrophotometry (HJ 637-2012);
5. Ambient air-Determination of phenolic compounds by high performance
liquid chromatography (HJ 638-2012).
The abovementioned standards shall be implemented since June 1, 2012 and
inquired at the website of China Ministry of Environmental Protection
(bz.mep.gov.cn).
Since the date of implementation of the abovementioned standards, the following
two national environmental protection standards shall be abolished. The
standard names and number are as follows.
1. Water quality - Determination of total nitrogen - Alkaline potassium
persulfate digestion - UV spectro photometric method (GB 11894-89)
2. Water quality - Determination of petroleum oil, animal and vegetable oils -
Infrared photometric method (GB/T 16488-1996)
It hereby announces.

Foreword
This Standard is specified so as to implement Environmental Protection Law of
the People 's Republic of China, Water Pollution Control Act of the People 's
Republic of China, to protect environment, to protect human health, to
standardize the determination method for total nitrogen in water.
This Standard specifies determination of total nitrogen in surface water,
groundwater, industrial wastewater and domestic sewage - Alkaline potassium
persulfate digestion UV spectrophotometric method.
This Standard is the modification of Water quality - Determination of total
nitrogen - Alkaline potassium persulfate digestion - UV spectro photometric
method (GB 11894-89).
This Standard was issued in 1989 for the first time. The original drafting
organization was Shanghai Environmental Monitoring Center. This is the first
revision. The main content of revision is as follows.
- expanded the scope of standard application;
- added nitrogen content requirements of sodium hydroxide and potassium
persulfate and method for determination of nitrogen content;
- added quality assurance and quality control provisions;
- added terms and conditions on precautions.
Since the date of implementation of this Standard, the national environmental
protection standard. Water quality - Determination of total nitrogen - Alkaline
potassium persulfate digestion - UV spectro photometric method (GB 11894-
89) approved and issued by former China State Environmental Protection
Administration on December 25, 1989 shall be abolished.
Annex A of this Standard is informative.
This Standard is organized and made by Department of Science and
Technology Standards, Ministry of Environmental Protection.
Main drafting organization of this Standard. Dalian Environmental Monitoring
Center.
The verification organizations of this Standard. Tianjin Environmental
Monitoring Center, Liaoning Provincial Environmental Monitoring Experimental
Center, Shenyang Environmental Monitoring Center Station, Anshan
Environmental Monitoring Center Station, Jinzhou Environmental Monitoring
Center Station, Yingkou Environmental Monitoring Center Station.
Water quality - Determination of total nitrogen -
Alkaline potassium persulfate digestion UV
spectrophotometric method
1 Application scope
This Standard specifies water quality - determination of total nitrogen - alkaline
potassium persulfate digestion UV spectrophotometric method.
This Standard is applicable to the determination of total nitrogen in surface
water, groundwater, industrial wastewater and domestic sewage.
When the amount of sample is 10 ml, the detection limit of this method shall be
0.05 mg/L; the measuring range shall be 0.20 ~ 7.00 mg/L.
2 Normative references
The following standards contain the provisions which, through reference in this
Standard, constitute the provisions of this Standard. For undated reference
documents, the latest versions apply to this Standard.
