AMTOX® is a fast, reliable and reproducible analyser methodology,
to continuously determine the toxicity of water and waste-water
samples. The on-line analyser comprises, a wall mount analyser section
with a touch screen controller, providing local display and output
signals.
AMTOX® technology uses a large population of immobilised nitrobacta
- nitrification bacteria, to compute the degree of toxicity of a
filtered sample. The percentage removal of ammonical-nitrogen, is
proportional to the nitrification inhibition and the toxicity of
the sample. Ammonia can be dosed into the sample, if feed concentrations
are below prescribed values. The ammonia removal is analysed using
ion-selective technology, which can be calibrated using known standards.

The data is continuously displayed on a touch screen and achived to a hard disc drive. Both acute toxicity (typically operating over a few minutes) and chronic toxicity (taking many days) can be identified, on a single instrument. Analogue and alarm outputs are available for connection to telemetry, to enable forward control or alarm dangerously toxic events. A laboratory version, detailed separately, is also available for discrete sample measurement. |
