What Is Turbidity of Water?

Turbidity of Water Test

Apparatus-

• For the turbidity of water test many types of apparatus are need that are, nephelo turbidity meter, beakers, glass tubes etc.

Procedure of Turbidity of Water Test

1. Calibration of Nephelometer

• At first, we have to select the correct range of NTU on the nephelometer.
• After that, we have to fill distilled water on a test tube and set the nephelometer at a zero reading by a knob which is provided for zero setting.
• Next 40 NTU of standard solution is poured in the test tube and set the nephelometer reading at 40 NTU by using a calibrationknob.

2. Determination of Turbidity of Sample Water

• Before analysis it should keep in mind the sample temperature must come at room temperature.
• After this, we have to mix the sample thoroughly to the disperse solid and wait until the bubbles are out of the mixture.
• After removing the bubbles from the mixture we have to pour the water into the test tube.
• If the turbidity is more than 100 NTU, use a cell rise to get the turbidity duration factor.
• After doing the above actions we can see the turbine value on the turbidity meter and note down the value.

Application of Turbidity of Water Test Data

1. The turbidity test is one of the most important tests of water for a water supply because by this test we can know which treatment and how is best for those water.
2. By estimating the turbidity of filtered water we can find if there is any fault in the filter.
3. By measurement of wastewater turbidity, we can know how the quantity of suspended solid water should be removed from the water.
4. From the turbidity information, we can know how more doses and chemicals should me added for filter the supply water.
