Abstract
An analytical method for the determination of the total nitrogen content in aqueous systems, which comprises passing an inert gas stream containing substantially no nitrogen and carbon dioxide through a reaction tube, which is packed with a decomposition catalyst and maintained at a temperature of 700.degree. to 1200.degree. C., a condenser and a moisture-absorbing tube in this order, injecting an aqueous test sample to be analyzed into the reaction tube, and sending the gaseous products coming out of the moisture-absorbing tube to a mass spectrometer to determine the nitrogen content, and an apparatus for carrying out such a method. By this method, it is possible to determine the total nitrogen content in nitrogen compounds contained in aqueous systems, rapidly, accurately and with a high sensitivity.
