Determination of Chlorine Dioxide by DPD Method

This document provides the procedure for determining chlorine dioxide levels using the DPD (diethyl-p-phenylenediamine) method. It describes sample collection and storage requirements, potential interferences, necessary equipment, preparation of reagents, and step-by-step procedures for analyzing a sample and calculating chlorine dioxide concentration based on a calibration curve. Reagents include phosphate buffer solution, DPD indicator, potassium iodide, glycine solution, sulfuric acid, sodium bicarbonate, sodium arsenite, and thioacetamide solutions. The procedure involves adding sample, lye, buffer and DPD, mixing, and measuring absorbance at 515nm to locate the concentration on a calibration curve
