KJELTEC SISTEM
Kratki opis metode
Ova metoda se sastoji od grijanja uzorka sa sulfatnom kiselinom to razara prisutni organski
duik do amonij-sulfata. U ovom koraku se dodaje katalizator radi povienja temperature
vrelita (od 337 do 373 C). Kemijsko raspadanje uzorka je zavreno kada on postane bistar
i bezbojan (koji je na poetku vrlo taman). Ta otopina se tada destilira sa natrij-hidroksidom
(dodanim u malim koliinama) koji pretvara amonijsku sol u amonijak. Kraj kondenzatora se
uroni u otopinu kloridne kiseline tono odreene koncentracije. Amonijak reagira sa
kiselinom te se na kraju njezin viak retitrira sa luinom (NaOH) i uz prikladni pH indikator.

Short description of the method

The method consists of heating a substance with sulfuric acid which decomposes the
organic nitrogen present to ammonium sulfate. In this step catalyst is added in order
to increase the boiling point of the medium (from 337 to 373 C). Chemical
decomposition of the sample is complete when the medium has become clear and
colorless (initially very dark). The solution is then distilled with sodium hydroxide
(added in small quantities) which converts the ammonium salt to ammonia. The end
of the condenser is dipped into a solution of hydrochloric acid of precisely known
concentration. The ammonia reacts with the acid and the remainder of the acid is
then titrated with a base (NaOH) solution with a adequate pH indicator.
