This 22st edition of Standard Methods sets a new benchmark for completeness and precision of new material and figures. The latest water analysis methodology is provided for domestic and industrial water, wastewater treatment, public health and environmental protection. Each of the methods has been reviewed and endorsed by a large number of qualified water and wastewater professionals, offering the most accurate and consistent procedures. These methods offer scientists, analysts, and engineers a valid and recognized basis for control, evaluation and assistance with regulatory compliance. Also provided is information on quality control, safety issues, waste minimization and disposal, lab apparatus, washing and sanitizing, full color aquatic algae illustrations, and much more. 

Description
With new content and over 40% of the sections updated, Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, 22nd edition provides methods for measuring the biological, chemical, and physical attributes of waters, and offers guidance for choosing among available methods for specific elements and compounds. Analysts, researchers, and regulators have relied on this peer-reviewed publication since 1905, and it remains a trusted source of accurate, proven methodology for analyzing natural waters, water supplies, and wastewaters.

Analysts, researchers, and regulators have relied on this peer-reviewed publication since 1905, and it remains a trusted source of accurate, proven methodology for analyzing natural waters, water supplies, and wastewaters.

The new 22nd edition advances the science of water analysis with input and consensus of hundreds of water and wastewater experts from around the world. Laboratories worldwide rely on this comprehensive reference as a trusted source of accurate, proven methodology for analysis of water, water supplies, and wastewater. It is the essential resource.

The 22nd edition contains over 400 laboratory methods for the analysis of:

• Dissolved Solids
• Metals
• Free and Total Chlorine
• Odor, Taste, and Flavor Profile Analysis
• Disinfection By-products
• Radionuclides
• Total Organic Carbon
• Total and Fecal Coliform
• The Quality Control for Parts 2000 – 7000 has been expanded and significantly revised to make the methods more suitable for regulatory compliance.
•Twenty-two sections in Part 9000 Microbiological Examination were revised and new procedures added. These include information on viable but nonculturable bacteria, new information on the fluorogenic substrate test for E. coli, and an expansion of the section on identification of iron and sulfur bacteria.
• Flavor Profile Analysis for drinking water was expanded with an extended introduction and new taste-and-odor color wheel.
• The determination of metals using Inductively Coupled Plasma/Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) contains updated quality control requirements and added collision cell technology.
• Additional sampling, filtering, and storage requirements were added to UV-Absorbing Organic Constituents.
• New methods have been added for the determination of nitrosamines in drinking water.
• The method for radium was updated.
• The references and bibliography were updated for Part 8000 Toxicity.
• The section on plankton was revised to include more in-depth procedures for collecting and processing samples. 
• New figures were added to Identification of Aquatic Organisms.

The methods in the 22nd edition (as in previous editions) are believed to be the best available, generally accepted procedures for analyzing water, wastewater, and related materials. They represent the recommendations of specialists, ratified by a large number of analysts and others of more general expertise, and as such are truly consensus standards, offering a valid and recognized basis for control and evaluation.
