1.1 These test methods cover the determination of dissolved and total recoverable cobalt in water and wastewater by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Three test methods are included as follows:

Concentration RangeSectionsTest Method A - Atomic Absorption, Direct0.1 to 10 mg/L7 to 16Test Method B - Atomic Absorption, Chelation-Extraction10 to 1000 g/L17 to 26Test Method C - Atomic Absorption, Graphite Furnace5 to 100 g/L27 to 36

1.2 Test Method A has been used successfully with reagent water, potable water, river water, and wastewater. Test Method B has been used successfully with reagent water, potable water, river water, sea water and brine. Test Method C was successfully evaluated in reagent water, artificial seawater, river water, tap water, and a synthetic brine.
