I used " STANDARD METHODS" for the Examination of water and wasterwater" during my PhD. I found the following link, if this could help you
http://www.mwa.co.th/download/file_upload/SMWW_1000-3000.pdf
http://www.mwa.co.th/download/file_upload/SMWW_4000-6000.pdf
I would like to suggest the book with the link as below

First of all, make sure any method you use in lab is accepted by the authority in the country you are conducting the test in. Generally, APHA and EPA water and wastewater examination methods are well accepted worldwide unless specific methods are required by the local authority.
I would recommend the following:
1- APHA, 1992. Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater,,
American Public Health Association, Washington, DC.
