Iron & Manganese Measurement

[ewiebe]

Hi,

I am currently writing up a bench scale testing program to determine the raw water quality from multiple groundwater sources for a new water treatment plant. We will do our own testing in a University lab and send samples to an accredited lab for confirmation. I have been able to find procedures for many water quality prameters such as hardness, alkalinity, pH, etc. However, I haven't been able to find a laboratory procedure to determine the iron & manganese concentration in a water sample. Does anyone have any information on this?

Thanks,

Ed
