EPA 200.3 Metal Testing by ICP-AES in Water Samples: Laboratory Testing Services
The EPA 200.3 Metal Testing by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) in Water Samples is a laboratory testing service that measures the presence and concentration of various metals in water samples. This testing method is governed by several international and national standards, which are explained below.
International Standards
National Standards
Standard Development Organizations
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is responsible for developing and publishing international standards. The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) is another prominent standard development organization that publishes standards for various industries, including water quality testing.
Evolution of Standards
Standards evolve over time to reflect advances in technology, changes in regulatory requirements, or emerging industry needs. For example, the ISO 17294-1:2019 standard was updated from the previous version (ISO 17294-1:2005) to include new methods for determining dissolved anions and oxidising substances.
Standard Numbers and Scope
Here are some relevant standard numbers and their scope:
Standard Compliance Requirements
Standards compliance is essential for industries that require accurate and reliable testing results. For example, the European Unions Drinking Water Directive (2000/60/EC) requires member states to implement standards for determining the quality of drinking water.
Consequences of Non-Compliance
Failure to comply with relevant standards can lead to inaccurate test results, which may have serious consequences for industries that rely on these tests. For instance, non-compliance with the Drinking Water Directive can result in fines, penalties, or even prosecution.
