I willl make a carbonate and bicarbonate determination through volumetric titration with an acid and some indicator.
But I want to know some document or article in which I can find the interferences that I could have doing that analysis.
Thank you so much for your time and help
Have a nice day (or nit´)

What you are in fact measuring is the alkalinity of your solutions. From which you can calculate your carbonate and bicarbonate concentrations. But the alkalinity consists not only of the carbonate and bicarbonate concentrations.
Alk = [HCO3−] + 2[CO3−2] + [B(OH)4−] + [OH−] + 2[PO4−3] + [HPO4−2] + [SiO(OH)3−] − [H+] − [HSO4−]
