2. Method for NHMethod for NH33 Measurement in Ambient AirMeasurement in Ambient Air
(Indophenol Blue Method)(Indophenol Blue Method)
Principle:
NH3 in air is collected by scrubbing a known volume of air in a dilute
solution of sulphuric acid. The ammonium sulphate formed in the
sample is analyzed colorimtrically by reaction with phenol and alkaline
sod.hypochlorite to produce indophenol. The reaction is accelerated by
the addition of sodium nitropruside as catalyst.
Range & Sensitivity:
The range of the method is 20 - 700ug/m3. The analytical range is
0.2ug/ml
Interferences
interfering particulate matter in the air can be removed by filtration of the
air sample.

(As recommended by CPCB, Govt. of India)(As recommended by CPCB, Govt. of India)
Step I: Preparation of Reagent
A. For Sampling:
Absorbing Reagent: 0.1N Sulphuric Acid
Caution: Sulphuric Acid is highly toxic ;avoid contact with skin and especially with eyes. Wash
hands after handling it.
B. For Analysis:
1. Sodium Nitropruside Solution: Dissolve 2gm Sodium Nitropruside in 100ml distilled water.
2. Buffer Solution: Dissolve 50 gm of Sodium phosphate and 74ml of 6.75 M NaOH in 1 litre of
distilled water .
3. Sodium Hypochlorite Solution: Mix 30ml of 0.1N sodium hypochlorite and 30 ml of 6.75 M
Sodium hydroxide and dilute to 100 ml with distilled water.
4. Phenol Solution : Dilute 20ml of 45% phenol solution with 1ml of 2% Sodium Nitropruside
Solution and dilute to 100ml with distilled water.
C. For Calibration Curve:
1. Ammonia Stock Solution :1000 µg NH3/ml
2. Standard Ammonia Solution :10 µg NH3/ml(Caution: Prepare fresh)
