Water quality - Determination of dissolved anions by liquid chromatography of ions - Part 1: Determination of bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate and sulfate (ISO 10304-1:2007)
This part of ISO 10304 specifies a method for the determination of dissolved bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate in water, e.g. drinking water, ground water, surface water, waste water, leachates and marine water by liquid chromatography of ions. The lower limit of application is ≥ 0,05 mg/l for bromide and for nitrite, and ≥ 0,1 mg/l for chloride, fluoride, nitrate, orthophosphate and sulfate. The lower limit application depends on the matrix and the interferences encountered. The working range may be expanded to lower concentrations (e.g. ≥ 0,01 mg/l) if an appropriate pre treatment of the sample (e.g. conditions for trace analyses, pre-concentration technique) is applied, and/or if an ultraviolet (UV) detector (for bromide, nitrate and nitrite) is used.

Dieser Teil von ISO 10304 legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung von gelöstem Bromid, Chlorid, Fluorid, Nitrat,
Nitrit, Orthophosphat und Sulfat in Wasser, z. B. Trinkwasser, Grundwasser, Oberflächenwasser, Abwasser,
Sickerwasser und Meerwasser mittels Flüssigkeits-Ionenchromatographie fest.
Der untere Arbeitsbereich beträgt für Bromid und Nitrit ≥ 0,05 mg/l und ≥ 0,1 mg/l für Chlorid, Fluorid, Nitrit,
Orthophosphat und Sulfat. Die untere Anwendungsgrenze hängt von der Matrix und den beobachteten
Störungen ab.
Der Arbeitsbereich kann zu geringeren Konzentrationen (z. B. ≥ 0,01 mg/l) hin erweitert werden, wenn eine
geeignete Probenvorbereitung (z. B. Arbeiten unter spurenanalytischen Bedingungen, Einsatz von
Anreicherungstechniken) angewandt wird und/oder ein UV-Detektor (UVD) (für Bromid, Nitrat und Nitrit)
eingesetzt wird.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 10304-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 2, Physical,
chemical and biochemical methods.
This second edition of ISO 10304-1 cancels and replaces ISO 10304-1:1992 and ISO 10304-2:1995, which
have been technically revised.
ISO 10304 consists of the following parts, under the general title Water quality — Determination of dissolved
anions by liquid chromatography of ions:
⎯ Part 1: Determination of bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate and sulfate
⎯ Part 3: Determination of chromate, iodide, sulfite, thiocyanate and thiosulfate
⎯ Part 4: Determination of chlorate, chloride and chlorite in water with low contamination

Water quality — Determination of dissolved anions by liquid

Part 1:
Determination of bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite,
phosphate and sulfate
WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory
practice. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to
ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.
IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this International Standard
be carried out by suitably trained staff.
1 Scope
This part of ISO 10304 specifies a method for the determination of dissolved bromide, chloride, fluoride,
nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate in water, e.g. drinking water, ground water, surface water, waste
water, leachates and marine water by liquid chromatography of ions.
The lower limit of application is W 0,05 mg/l for bromide and for nitrite, and W 0,1 mg/l for chloride, fluoride,
nitrate, orthophosphate, and sulfate. The lower limit of application depends on the matrix and the interferences
encountered.
The working range may be expanded to lower concentrations (e.g. W 0,01 mg/l) if an appropriate
pre-treatment of the sample (e.g. conditions for trace analyses, pre-concentration technique) is applied, and/or
if an ultraviolet (UV) detector (for bromide, nitrate and nitrite) is used.

3 Interferences
3.1 Organic acids
Aliphatic organic acids such as mono- or dicarboxylic acids may interfere with the separation of the anions.
3.2 Sulfite
Sulfite may cause a positive bias for sulfate due to autooxidation. In this case the sample may be adjusted to
pH 10 and formaldehyde solution is added in order to stabilize sulfite, if necessary.
3.3 Metals
The presence of metals (e.g. alkaline earth metals, transition metals, heavy metals) possibly interfering with
the anions of interest, should be checked and can be eliminated with the aid of special cation exchangers (e.g.
cartridge in the H-form or Na-form).
NOTE Depending on the sample matrix, the use of cation exchangers in the H-form can cause losses of fluoride and
nitrite.
4 Principle
The sample is pretreated in order to remove solids (see Clause 7), sulfite and metal ions, if necessary. The
anions of interest (bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate), are separated by
liquid chromatography, applying an anion exchange resin as stationary phase, and aqueous solutions of salts
of weak mono- and dibasic acids as eluents for isocratic or gradient elution (e.g. carbonate,
hydrogencarbonate, hydroxide eluent) (5.10). Detection is carried out using a conductivity detector (CD).
When using CDs it is essential that the eluents show a sufficiently low conductivity. For this reason, CDs are
usually combined with a suppressor device (cation exchanger), which will reduce the conductivity of the eluent
and transform the sample species into their respective acids.
NOTE A UV detector is not required to carry out this analysis, but can be used for bromide, nitrate or nitrite if a higher
sensitivity is required and/or in case of a matrix interference to the CD. If used, bromide, nitrate and nitrite can be
measured at λ = 200 nm to λ = 215 nm.
Check resolution, R, to ensure that it complies with the required separation conditions (6.2). UV may be used
in combination with a CD. UV measures the absorption directly.
Calibration is carried out as specified in ISO 8466-1 or ISO 8466-2 (8.2). In special cases, extended working
ranges (e.g. two concentration decades) may be applied.
Control experiments are necessary to check the validity of the calibration function. Replicate determinations
may be necessary. Use of the method of standard addition may be required when matrix interferences are
expected (8.3).
5 Reagents
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade. Weigh the reagents with an accuracy of ± 1 % of the
nominal mass, unless stated otherwise. The reagents listed in 5.2 to 5.5 may be considered representative
examples for the preparation of eluents (5.10).

5.7 Bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate standard solutions
5.7.1 General
Depending on the concentrations expected, prepare single or mixed standard solutions, of bromide, chloride,
fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate concentrations from the stock standard solution (5.6).
Store the standard solutions in polyethene bottles.
5.7.2 Example for a bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate mixed
standard solution, ρ = 10 mg/l each.
Pipette 1,0 ml of each of the stock standard solutions (5.6) into a 100 ml volumetric flask, and dilute to volume
with water (5.1).
The solutions are stable for 1 week, if stored in the dark at 2 °C to 8 °C in polyethene bottles.
5.8 Bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate calibration solutions
Depending on the concentrations expected in the sample, use the standard solution (5.7.2) to prepare e.g. 5
to 10 calibration solutions distributed as evenly as possible over the expected working range.
For example, proceed as follows for the range 0,05 mg/l to 0,5 mg/l:

Pipette, into a series of 20 ml volumetric flasks, the following volumes: 100 µl, 200 µl, 300 µl, 400 µl, 500 µl,
600 µl, 700 µl, 800 µl, 900 µl or 1 000 µl of the standard solution (5.7.2) and dilute to volume with water (5.1).
The concentrations of the anions in these calibration solutions are: 0,05 mg/l, 0,1 mg/l, 0,15 mg/l, 0,2 mg/l,
0,25 mg/l, 0,3 mg/l, 0,35 mg/l, 0,4 mg/l, 0,45 mg/l or 0,5 mg/l, respectively.
Prepare the calibration solutions on the day of use.
5.9 Blank
Fill a volumetric flask (e.g. 100 ml flask) with water (5.1).
5.10 Eluents
5.10.1 General
Degas all water used for eluent preparation. In order to minimise the growth of bacteria or algae, prepare
eluents freshly after 3 days.
The choice of eluent depends on the chosen column and detector (e.g. UV or conductivity), seek advice from
the column supplier. The chosen combination of separator column and eluent shall meet the resolution
requirements stated in 6.2.
The example for the eluent composition in 5.10.3 refers to the CD suppressor technique only. Nevertheless,
the non-suppressed CD technique (as well as UV detection) is included in this method.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 10304-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 2, Physical,
chemical and biochemical methods.
This second edition of ISO 10304-1 cancels and replaces ISO 10304-1:1992 and ISO 10304-2:1995, which
have been technically revised.
ISO 10304 consists of the following parts, under the general title Water quality — Determination of dissolved
anions by liquid chromatography of ions:
⎯ Part 1: Determination of bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate and sulfate
⎯ Part 3: Determination of chromate, iodide, sulfite, thiocyanate and thiosulfate
⎯ Part 4: Determination of chlorate, chloride and chlorite in water with low contamination

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 10304-1:2007(E)
Water quality — Determination of dissolved anions by liquid
chromatography of ions —
Part 1:
Determination of bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite,
phosphate and sulfate
WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory
practice. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to
ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.
IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this International Standard
be carried out by suitably trained staff.
1 Scope
This part of ISO 10304 specifies a method for the determination of dissolved bromide, chloride, fluoride,
nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate in water, e.g. drinking water, ground water, surface water, waste
water, leachates and marine water by liquid chromatography of ions.
The lower limit of application is W 0,05 mg/l for bromide and for nitrite, and W 0,1 mg/l for chloride, fluoride,
nitrate, orthophosphate, and sulfate. The lower limit of application depends on the matrix and the interferences
encountered.
The working range may be expanded to lower concentrations (e.g. W 0,01 mg/l) if an appropriate
pre-treatment of the sample (e.g. conditions for trace analyses, pre-concentration technique) is applied, and/or
if an ultraviolet (UV) detector (for bromide, nitrate and nitrite) is used.

3 Interferences
3.1 Organic acids
Aliphatic organic acids such as mono- or dicarboxylic acids may interfere with the separation of the anions.
3.2 Sulfite
Sulfite may cause a positive bias for sulfate due to autooxidation. In this case the sample may be adjusted to
pH 10 and formaldehyde solution is added in order to stabilize sulfite, if necessary.
3.3 Metals
The presence of metals (e.g. alkaline earth metals, transition metals, heavy metals) possibly interfering with
the anions of interest, should be checked and can be eliminated with the aid of special cation exchangers (e.g.
cartridge in the H-form or Na-form).
NOTE Depending on the sample matrix, the use of cation exchangers in the H-form can cause losses of fluoride and
nitrite.
4 Principle
The sample is pretreated in order to remove solids (see Clause 7), sulfite and metal ions, if necessary. The
anions of interest (bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate), are separated by
liquid chromatography, applying an anion exchange resin as stationary phase, and aqueous solutions of salts
of weak mono- and dibasic acids as eluents for isocratic or gradient elution (e.g. carbonate,
hydrogencarbonate, hydroxide eluent) (5.10). Detection is carried out using a conductivity detector (CD).
When using CDs it is essential that the eluents show a sufficiently low conductivity. For this reason, CDs are
usually combined with a suppressor device (cation exchanger), which will reduce the conductivity of the eluent
and transform the sample species into their respective acids.
NOTE A UV detector is not required to carry out this analysis, but can be used for bromide, nitrate or nitrite if a higher
sensitivity is required and/or in case of a matrix interference to the CD. If used, bromide, nitrate and nitrite can be
measured at λ = 200 nm to λ = 215 nm.
Check resolution, R, to ensure that it complies with the required separation conditions (6.2). UV may be used
in combination with a CD. UV measures the absorption directly.
Calibration is carried out as specified in ISO 8466-1 or ISO 8466-2 (8.2). In special cases, extended working
ranges (e.g. two concentration decades) may be applied.
Control experiments are necessary to check the validity of the calibration function. Replicate determinations
may be necessary. Use of the method of standard addition may be required when matrix interferences are
expected (8.3).
5 Reagents
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade. Weigh the reagents with an accuracy of ± 1 % of the
nominal mass, unless stated otherwise. The reagents listed in 5.2 to 5.5 may be considered representative
examples for the preparation of eluents (5.10).

5.7 Bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate standard solutions
5.7.1 General
Depending on the concentrations expected, prepare single or mixed standard solutions, of bromide, chloride,
fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate concentrations from the stock standard solution (5.6).
Store the standard solutions in polyethene bottles.
5.7.2 Example for a bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate mixed
standard solution, ρ = 10 mg/l each.
Pipette 1,0 ml of each of the stock standard solutions (5.6) into a 100 ml volumetric flask, and dilute to volume
with water (5.1).
The solutions are stable for 1 week, if stored in the dark at 2 °C to 8 °C in polyethene bottles.
5.8 Bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, nitrite, orthophosphate and sulfate calibration solutions
Depending on the concentrations expected in the sample, use the standard solution (5.7.2) to prepare e.g. 5
to 10 calibration solutions distributed as evenly as possible over the expected working range.
For example, proceed as follows for the range 0,05 mg/l to 0,5 mg/l:

Pipette, into a series of 20 ml volumetric flasks, the following volumes: 100 µl, 200 µl, 300 µl, 400 µl, 500 µl,
600 µl, 700 µl, 800 µl, 900 µl or 1 000 µl of the standard solution (5.7.2) and dilute to volume with water (5.1).
The concentrations of the anions in these calibration solutions are: 0,05 mg/l, 0,1 mg/l, 0,15 mg/l, 0,2 mg/l,
0,25 mg/l, 0,3 mg/l, 0,35 mg/l, 0,4 mg/l, 0,45 mg/l or 0,5 mg/l, respectively.
Prepare the calibration solutions on the day of use.
5.9 Blank
Fill a volumetric flask (e.g. 100 ml flask) with water (5.1).
5.10 Eluents
5.10.1 General
Degas all water used for eluent preparation. In order to minimise the growth of bacteria or algae, prepare
eluents freshly after 3 days.
The choice of eluent depends on the chosen column and detector (e.g. UV or conductivity), seek advice from
the column supplier. The chosen combination of separator column and eluent shall meet the resolution
requirements stated in 6.2.
The example for the eluent composition in 5.10.3 refers to the CD suppressor technique only. Nevertheless,
the non-suppressed CD technique (as well as UV detection) is included in this method.
A selection of reagents for common eluents is given in 5.2 to 5.5.
NOTE Preparing the eluent from concentrates has proved to be successful.
5.10.2 Sodium carbonate/sodium hydrogencarbonate concentrate
For the eluent concentrate preparation:
Place 28,6 g of sodium carbonate (5.3) and 8,4 g of sodium hydrogencarbonate (5.2) into a 1 000 ml
volumetric flask.
