I need to determinate organic carbon content in humic acid solution. tell me correct reference or protocol of determinate OC content in humic acid solution.
The most common procedure involve reduction of potassium dichromate by organic carbon compounds and subsequent determination of the unreduced dichromate by oxidation-reduction titration with ferrous ammonium sulfate (walkley,1947; FAO,1974).
You can determine organic carbon in humic acid by CHN teqnique or by digestion with potassium dichromate .reference.methoda of soil analysis .Page et al.1982
