VINDTA 3C

Equipment Type: Inorganic Carbon detection equipment

This device is used to measure dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and total alkalinity (TA) in discrete seawater samples. The DIC is measured by acidification of the sample and measurement of the resulting CO2 gas using coulometry. TA is measured by potentiometric titration. This system needs 250 mL of sample volume. Analysis of one sample for TA and DIC usually takes 20 min in total.
