Description
Ammonia ($NH_3 / NH_4^+$) is a critical compound in refinery sour water systems, fertilizer manufacturing, boiler feedwater conditioning, and industrial wastewater treatment. In refinery distillation units, ammonia combines with hydrochloric acid to form corrosive ammonium chloride salts that cause aggressive localized under-deposit corrosion.
Sour Water Stripper & Wastewater Compliance
Direct optical speciation differentiates ammonia from organic amines, providing clear visibility into sour water stripper efficiency and environmental discharge compliance.
Fast On-Site Spectroscopy vs. Laboratory Delays
The OndaVia Ammonia Analysis Kit (Analyte Code: B039) delivers fast optical quantification in water within minutes without toxic Nessler reagents or slow laboratory colorimetry.
