Determination of soil organic carbon - combustion oxidation - non-dispersive infrared method
1 Scope of application
This standard specifies the combustion oxidation-non-dispersive infrared method for the determination of organic carbon in soil.
This standard applies to the determination of organic carbon in soil, and is not applicable to the determination of organic carbon in sludge-contaminated soil.
When the sample amount is 0.050 g, the detection limit of this method is 0.008%, and the lower limit of determination is 0.032%.
2 Normative references
The contents of this standard refer to the following documents or their terms. For undated references, the valid version is appropriate.
Used in this standard.
HJ/T 166 Technical Specifications for Soil Environmental Monitoring HJ 613 Determination of dry matter and moisture in soils - Gravimetric method
3 Principle of the method
The air-dried soil sample is heated to above 680oC in an oxygen-rich carrier gas, and the organic carbon in the sample is oxidized to dioxide.
Carbon, the carbon dioxide produced is introduced into the non-dispersive infrared detector, and the infrared absorption of carbon dioxide is strong within a certain concentration range.
The degree is proportional to its concentration, and the organic carbon content in the soil is calculated based on the amount of carbon dioxide produced.
4 Interference and elimination
When the sample is heated above.200 °C, all carbonates are completely decomposed to produce carbon dioxide.
Positive interference is produced and can be removed by adding an appropriate amount of phosphoric acid.
5 Reagents and materials
Unless otherwise stated, analytically pure reagents that meet national standards were used for the analysis.
5.1 Carbon dioxide-free water. It is ready for use, and the conductivity is <=0.2 mS/m (25°C).
5.2 Concentrated phosphoric acid. phi (H3PO4) = 85 %, excellent grade pure.
5.3 Sucrose (C12H22O12). Reference reagent.
Note 1. Glucose (C6H12O6) can also be used instead of sucrose.
5.4 Sucrose solution. rho (organic carbon, C) = 10.0 g/L
Weigh 2.375 g of sucrose (5.3) which has been dried at 104 °C for 2 h, dissolved in an appropriate amount of water (5.1), and transferred to a capacity of 100 ml.
In the bottle, dilute to the mark with water (5.1) and mix. Stored at room temperature, valid for two weeks.
5.5 Phosphoric acid solution. phi(H3PO4)= 5 %
Measure 59 ml of concentrated phosphoric acid (5.2) dissolved in 700 ml of water (5.1), cool to room temperature, and dilute with water (5.1) until 1000ml. Stored at room temperature, valid for two weeks.
5.6 Carrier gas. nitrogen, purity 99.99%.
5.7 Gas. oxygen, purity 99.99%.
6 Instruments and equipment
6.1 Total organic carbon analyzer. with solid combustion device, can be heated to above 680 °C, temperature can be adjusted, accuracy 1 °C;
Features a non-dispersive infrared detector with a quartz cup.
6.2 Balance. Accuracy is 0.1 mg.
6.3 Soil screen. 2 mm (10 mesh), 0.097 mm (160 mesh), stainless steel.
6.4 Microinjector..200 µl.
6.5 Common instruments and equipment used in general laboratories.
7 Samples
7.1 Sample collection and preservation
The collection and storage of soil samples is carried out in accordance with the relevant provisions of HJ/T 166.
7.2 Preparation of samples
Place the soil sample in the air-drying tray and spread it into a thin layer of 2 ~ 3 cm thick, first removing the residues such as plants, insects, stones, etc.
Crush the clods with a hammer or a porcelain abrasive rod, flip it several times a day, and air dry.
Mix the air-dried soil thoroughly, use the quadruple method, take two parts, one part is retained, one part is ground to all over 2 mm (10 Mesh) soil sieve. Take 10 ~ 20 g of the sieved soil sample and grind it to the entire 0.097 mm (160 mesh) soil sieve.
Load into a brown stoppered glass bottle for testing.
7.3 Determination of dry matter content
The air-dried soil samples after 2 mm (10 mesh) sieve were accurately weighed, and the dry matter content of the soil was determined by reference to HJ 613.
8 Analysis steps
8.1 Instrument Commissioning
Set the condition parameters and debug according to the instructions of the total organic carbon analyzer.
8.2 Drawing of the calibration curve
Use a pipette to accurately measure 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0 ml sucrose solution (5.4) in 10.0 ml in the measuring flask, dilute to the mark with water (5.1) and prepare the concentrations of 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0 g/L, respectively.
Calibration series. Use a micro-syringe (6.4) to take.200 µl of the calibration series in a quartz cup with a small amount of glass wool on the pad.
The organic carbon content is 0.00, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, 1.0, and 2.0 mg, respectively, and the quartz cup is placed in the total organic carbon analyzer (6.1).
The response value of the standard series is determined from low concentration to high concentration in turn, and the organic carbon content (mg) is plotted on the abscissa.
The value should be the ordinate and the calibration curve should be drawn.
8.3 Determination
Weigh 0.05g (7.2) of the sample to the nearest 0.0001 g, put it into a quartz cup with a small amount of glass wool on the pad, and slowly add it.
Phosphoric acid solution (5.5), no bubbles appeared in the sample. The quartz cup was placed in a total organic carbon analyzer (6.1) and the response was measured.
Note 2. When the sample concentration is high, the sample size can be appropriately reduced, but should not be less than 0.01g.
8.4 Blank test
Replace the sample with.200 µl of water (5.1) and measure according to step (8.3).
9 Calculation and representation of results
9.1 Calculation of results
The organic carbon content ocomega (in terms of carbon, mass fraction, %) in the soil is calculated according to the formulas (1) and (2).

b -- The slope of the calibration curve.
9.2 Results representation
When the measurement result is 1%, the relative deviation of the parallel sample measurement results is <=10.0%.
11.2 When testing each batch of samples, a certified standard sample shall be analyzed and its measured value shall be within the guaranteed value range.
11.3 The correlation coefficient of the calibration curve should be greater than or equal to 0.995.
11.4 Each batch of samples shall be tested with a calibration sample at the middle of the calibration curve. The measured values of the calibration samples are relative to the calibration curve.
The relative error of the point concentration should not exceed 10%.
