Comprehensive Guide to ASTM D3559 Determination of Total Phosphorus in Water Testing Services by Eurolab

The determination of total phosphorus in water is a critical aspect of water quality testing, and it is governed by several international and national standards. The most widely recognized standard for this testing is ASTM D3559, which provides the requirements and procedures for determining total phosphorus in water.

ASTM D3559 Standard Overview

ASTM D3559 is a widely accepted standard that outlines the methods and procedures for determining total phosphorus in water. This standard was developed by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) to provide a consistent and reliable method for measuring total phosphorus in water samples.

ISO, EN, TSE, and Other Relevant Standards

In addition to ASTM D3559, several other international and national standards also govern the determination of total phosphorus in water. Some of these standards include:

  • ISO 10304-1: Determination of dissolved and particulate phosphorus Part 1: Simultaneous measurement of dissolved reactive phosphorus and particulate phosphorus

  • EN 25852: Water quality Determination of total phosphorus content

  • TSE 625: Turkish Standard for the determination of total phosphorus in water

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The development of standards such as ASTM D3559 is overseen by standard development organizations (SDOs) that represent the interests of industries and sectors. Some notable SDOs include:
