Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) FAQs - envexp.com
www.envexp.comTotal Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) FAQs. Why is TKN important? The nitrogen cycle is the means by which atmospheric nitrogen is made available in various forms to living organisms. From the basic molecules of ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite to the more complex amino acids and proteins, nitrogen is essential for living organisms to function. It

This is due to the conversion
Titrimetric Analysis: Methods
facultystaff.richmond.eduKjeldahl analysis is often used in the analysis of surface water and wastewater. The total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) content of a water sample is a measure of the total concentration of nitrogen in the –3 oxidation state in the sample: ammonia/ammonium plus organic nitrogen.

www.pca.state.mn.usKjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), which measures a combination of organic N and ammonia+ammonium. Since N can transform from one form to another, it is often considered in its totality as total nitrogen (TN). This report most often refers to TN, but also at times focuses more specifically on the dominant form nitrate -N.
