Real Tech’s innovative solutions use light for water quality analysis (spectrophotometry and fluorescence). Many water quality parameters and compounds absorb within the UV and visible wavelengths, including organic compounds, nitrate, nitrite, chromium VI, colour, permanganate, benzene, ozone and so much more.
Organics measurement with UV can be correlated to other traditional aggregate organic parameters such as BOD, COD, DOC and TOC. However, UV-VIS spectral analysis has added benefit of being multi-dimensional allowing for detection of composition changes independent of their concentration.
