Abstract: The present application provides an apparatus and method of determining water filming amine concentration, which includes performing a measuring cycle and a cleaning cycle. The measuring cycle includes providing sample water to a sample water measuring container, providing, to the sample water measuring container, one or more reaction chemicals which generate color in the sample water, emitting light, via a light emitter, at a wavelength range and intensity range, through the sample water having the generated color, to a light receiver, receiving an indication of a light intensity of the light emitted through the sample water and determining a filming amine concentration of the sample water based on the light intensity. The cleaning cycle includes providing a cleaning reagent to remove amines from the sample water measuring container.

Abstract: An apparatus for determining water chloride concentration is provided which comprises a chloride concentration measuring device, a power supply and a processor. The measuring device comprises a first portion configured to hold a reference solution. The first portion includes a reference electrode configured to contact the reference solution. The measuring device also comprises a second portion, adjacent the first portion, which is configured to receive sample water at a flow rate. The second portion includes a measuring electrode configured to contact the sample water. The processor is configured to control the power supply to apply a constant voltage across the reference electrode and the measuring electrode, receive an indication of a current, produced in the sample water in response to the constant voltage, which is proportional to an amount of chloride ions in the sample water and determine a chloride concentration of the sample water based on the current.

Abstract: An apparatus for detecting cation conductivity of sample water is provided. The apparatus includes a decarbonation device which receives ambient air and removes CO2 components from the ambient air to produce decarbonated ambient air. The apparatus also includes a desorption device which receives the decarbonated ambient air and sample water that includes CO2 gas. The apparatus also includes one or more control processors which cause the decarbonated ambient air to be provided to the sample water in the desorption chamber where a portion of the CO2 gas is removed from the sample water when the decarbonated air passes through the sample water. The desorption chamber utilizes gravity to implement counterflow of the sample water and the decarbonated air to efficiently produce degassed sample water. The degassed water is provided to a conductivity sensor for evaluating the corroding anionic impurities of the water.
