Abstract: The present invention relates to the preparation of liquid mixtures, and more particularly to the preparation of a liquid mixture, such as a buffer, wherein the conductivity of the liquid mixture is measured and the pH indirectly determined if the buffer concentration is known. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method of preparing a liquid mixture with a predetermined pH value by using conductivity as feedback control parameter.

Abstract: The invention discloses a method for predicting the pH error during mixing of an aqueous buffer comprising at least one weak acid species and/or at least one weak base species, which comprises the steps of: a) selecting a start composition of the buffer, giving start values for pH and/or buffer concentration; b) calculating the concentrations of all ionic species present in the buffer at a specified pH value from the total composition of the buffer and available dissociation constants; c) calculating the contribution of each of said ionic species to a total pH variance from the specified pH value, the buffer concentration, the calculated concentrations of the ionic species and variances in amounts of buffer components; d) calculating the pH variance, and; e) setting the variance or the square root of the pH variance as the pH error.
