As a result, all solids damage the natural environment. They cause water to blur and reduce light transmittance. Water containing a high percentage of solids cannot be used as drinking water or domestic water in domestic or industrial plants.

After the total solids content in the water is determined, the remaining substances in the capsule are kept in the 15-grade oven for 20-550 minutes. After baking, the remainder is re-weighed. Burning fractions give the weight of organic matter. After the measurements, the amounts of volatile and non-volatile substances are calculated as follows:

Total volatile solids content = (Weight of the container and the substance in it before it is dried in the oven - Weight of the container and the substance in it after incineration) * Sample volume in milliliters.

Amount of non-volatile solids = (Weight of container and substance after incineration in the oven) - (Weight of container) * Sample volume in milliliters.

Two or more substances come together in any ratio to form a homogeneous mixture. This mixture is called a solution. The solutions are homogeneous mixtures in which the combined substances at any rate form. The dissolution of one substance into small particles that is not visible to another is called dissolution. The solution is the mixture obtained from this phenomenon. There are many solvents and soluble substances in nature. Water is the best known solvent. Many solid, liquid and gaseous materials are water soluble.

Once again, after the total solids analysis, the solids remaining in the test vessel are once again kept in the oven at 550 once and the organic materials contained therein are burned. The weight of the resulting volatile portion is the amount of volatile solids. That is the weight of the organic solid.

 

Volatile and non-volatile solids are also measured by authorized laboratories within the framework of water and wastewater measurements.
