Abstract

Free chlorine in water can be determined by acidifying the water sample, purging it with nitrogen and determining the chlorine present in the nitrogen stream with a gold porous electrode. The current response of gold porous electrode is related to the concentration of free chlorine by using a calibration curve. This pneumatoamperometric method gives results fully comparable to the standard o-toluidine photometric method used for water supplies. It is uninfluenced by the presence of other dissolved oxidants and requires only one milliliter of sample.
