Estimation of Chlorine in Water Samples-ELECTROANALYSISIRJET Journal
This document presents a study on the estimation of chlorine in water samples using electroanalytical and volumetric techniques. Water samples were collected from different depths and their chlorine content was analyzed using potentiometry and volumetry. Both methods were found to be simple and less time consuming, but electroanalytical techniques provided more accurate and reproducible results. Specifically, potentiometric titration using a chloride ion-selective electrode was able to detect the endpoint more precisely compared to direct titration using an indicator. Therefore, the study concludes that electroanalytical methods are better for analyzing chloride ions in water.

2. Different water quality standards:
What is Water quality?
Water quality describes the condition of the water, including chemical, physical, and
biological characteristics, usually with respect to its suitability for a particular purpose
such as drinking
Drinking water quality standards:
describes the quality parameters set for drinking
water. Water may contain many harmful constituents, yet there are no universally
recognized and accepted international standards for drinking water. Even where standards
do exist, the permitted concentration of individual constituents may vary by as much as
ten times from one set of standards to another. Many countries specify standards to be
applied in their own country.
In Europe, this includes the European Drinking Water Directive and in the United States,
the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) establishes standards as
required by the Safe Drinking Water Act. China adopted its own drinking water standard
3. Different water quality standards:
Range of standard:
Drinking water standards include lists of parametric values, and also specify the sampling
location, sampling methods, sampling frequency, analytical methods, and laboratory
accreditation . In addition, a number of standards documents also require calculation to
determine whether a level exceeds the standard, such as taking an average. Some
standards give complex, detailed requirements for the statistical treatment of results,
temporal and seasonal variations, summation of related parameters, and mathematical
treatment of apparently aberrant results.
Parametric values:
A parametric value in this context is most commonly the concentration of a substance,
e.g. 30 mg/L of iron. It may also be a count such as 500 E. coli per litre or a statistical
value such as the average concentration of copper is 2 mg/L. Many countries not only
specify parametric values that may have health impacts but also specify parametric
values for a range of constituents that by themselves are unlikely to have any impact on
health. These include colour, turbidity, pH, and the organoleptic (aesthetic) parameters
(taste and odour).
4. Different water quality standards:
World Health Organization (WHO) Standards:
The WHO establishes global guidelines for drinking water quality with the primary goal of
ensuring access to safe and clean drinking water worldwide. These guidelines cover a
comprehensive range of parameters such as microbiological contaminants (like bacteria and
viruses), chemical contaminants (including heavy metals and pesticides) and physical
characteristics. The standards are designed to protect human health by setting limits on
potentially harmful substances in drinking water.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Standards (United States): In the United States,
the federal legislation controlling drinking water quality is the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)
which is implemented by EPA, mainly through state or territorial health agencies ,In the United
States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is responsible for setting water quality
criteria for different water bodies, including rivers, lakes, and coastal waters. The criteria
encompass a broad spectrum of pollutants, addressing issues like nutrient levels, pathogens,
metals, and organic chemicals. These standards aim to maintain and improve the quality of
surface waters to support ecosystems and protect public health.
5. Different water quality standards:
China National Standards for Drinking Water Quality:
China has established national standards for drinking water quality, addressing
various pollutants such as bacteria, heavy metals, and organic compounds. These
standards aim to guarantee the safety and quality of drinking water across the
country, considering the unique environmental and demographic factors in China.
China adopted its own drinking water standard GB3838-2002 (Type II) enacted
by Ministry of Environmental Protection in 2002
European Union (EU) Standards :
The European Union (EU) has established directives and regulations to manage
water quality. The Water Framework Directive is a key framework that sets
environmental objectives for water bodies within EU member states. The
focus is on achieving and maintaining good ecological status, emphasizing
sustainable water management and protection of aquatic ecosystems.
6. Australia standards:
Drinking water quality standards in Australia have been developed by the Australian
Government National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) in the form
of the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines. These guidelines provide contaminant
limits (pathogen, aesthetic, organic, inorganic, and radiological) as well as guidance
on applying limits for the management of drinking water in Australian drinking water
treatment and distribution Aim: The guidelines for water quality assessment in
Australia and New Zealand aim to provide a comprehensive framework for
managing and protecting water quality. By addressing various parameters, the
guidelines support the sustainable use of water resources for drinking water supply,
agriculture, industry, and recreational purposes.
Indian Standards for Drinking Water (Bureau of Indian Standards):
In India, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) sets standards for drinking water
quality. These standards cover microbiological quality, chemical contaminants, and
toxic substances. The aim is to ensure the provision of safe and clean drinking
water for the population, addressing specific challenges and concerns relevant to
the Indian context.
7. Different water quality standards:
WHO Guidelines for Recreational Water Quality:
In addition to drinking water guidelines, the WHO also provides guidelines for
the quality of recreational water. These guidelines focus on water bodies used
for swimming and bathing, setting standards to protect individuals from
waterborne diseases and hazards associated with recreational water activities.
The focus is on preventing waterborne diseases and hazards associated with
recreational activities, ensuring the safety and health of individuals engaging
in water-based recreation.
Each set of standards reflects specific regional or global priorities, addressing
unique environmental challenges and considerations while striving to achieve
common goals of protecting human health, preserving ecosystems, and
ensuring sustainable water management.
