TOC Monitoring & Deicing Applications

Quick TOC airport ANALYZER FOR AIRPORT DEICING APPLICATIONS

Our LAR™ QuickTOCairport™ TOC COD water analyzer is the ultimate online measuring system for the determination of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) for required airport applications.

Airplanes, runways and landing strips are de-iced with the help of de-icing agents. De-icing agents used in airports are typically formulated with a combination of chemicals, such as ethylene glycol and propylene glycol, to melt ice and snow from aircraft surfaces. These chemicals can be harmful to the environment and can contribute to the Total Organic Carbon (TOC) levels in the wastewater generated from airports during the de-icing process. As a result, it is important to monitor the levels of TOC in wastewater to ensure that the discharge meets environmental regulations.

One way to monitor TOC in de-icing agents is to use a specialized water analyzer, such our QuickTOCultra aka QuickTOCairport TOC water analyzer. The QuickTOCultra water analyzer uses a combustion method to oxidize the organic compounds in the sample and measures the resulting CO₂ concentration to determine the TOC concentration.

To monitor TOC in de-icing agents, a representative sample of the wastewater generated from the de-icing process is collected and prepared for analysis using the appropriate sample preparation techniques, such as filtration and dilution. The prepared sample is then introduced into the analyzer for TOC measurement.

Here are some airport de-icing and wastewater standards:

THE BUILDING BLOCKS PRINCIPLE FOR A TAILOR-MADE MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENT

The use of inert materials as well as a pump, which is installed downstream of the sample stream, prevent carryover and memory effects caused by absorption and adsorption. The automatic ranging feature ensures reliable measurements between 0.1 – 50,000 mg/l C without dilution or pretreatment of samples. This means, fluctuating loads and adhesive samples are easily analyzed.

EXACT ANALYSIS AT 1200°C

For an exact TOC measurement all carbons bonds – incl. particles – must be reliably combusted. LAR’s unique robotic system is capable of transporting and measuring a high content of solid matter without any filtration of the sample. Additionally, our ultra-high temperature method with combustion at 1,200°C guarantees the complete oxidation of the sample. This analysis results in TRUE TOC.
