PITTCON 2001: NPDES Reporting of TKN, TP, N03, N02 and Other Priority Pollutants

In today's busy water testing laboratory, quick turnaround time of samples is important in controlling waste treatment operations. The Astoria Analyzer offers multirange detection capabilities, part per billion detection limits, multichannel capability and sample analysis rates of 120 per hour - making ion testing fast, economical and easy.

The Astoria Analyzer uses proven methodologies that are designed to meet the rigorous standards of the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Each analytical cartridge is customed designed to achieve low carry-over (usually less than 1 %), optimized throughput and specific range. The Astoria Analyzer is capable of very low detection limits - 1.0 ppb for ammonia and 0.5 ppb for nitrate/nitrite.

Working within the Windows@ environment, Astoria- Pacific's data acquisition software package, FASPac, offers a sophisticated graphical presentation of information and data, easily customized for individual needs. Peaks and analytical results are displayed on the CRT in real time, showing peak number, concentration and voltage. While collecting data, other operations may be performed such as checking previous data, printing out reports or initiating another run.

Booth Number at PITTCON 2001 is 4726
