Determination of bicarbonate and total volatile acid concentration in anaerobic digesters using a simple titration

Anderson, G. K., Yang, G.·1992·Water Environment Research

Abstract

ABSTRACT: A simple, alkalimetric method is described that can be used to determine bicarbonate and total volatile fatty acid concentrations in anaerobic digesters by a two‐stage sequential titration. The new method was evaluated by standard solutions of volatile fatty acids and bicarbonate over a pH 5.5 to 7.65 range. It was also used to determine the total volatile fatty acid and bicarbonate concentrations in effluent samples from five laboratory anaerobic digesters treating different types of waste. The average recovery of volatile fatty acids and bicarbonate by the new method from standard solutions was found to be 96%. The total volatile fatty acid concentration measured by the new method from the digester ceffluent samples coincided well with those measured by a chromatographer.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
