The invention relates to an
ammonia nitrogen detection method and an
ammonia nitrogen detection device based on
electrodialysis ion transformation. Through a polarization principle of
electrodialysis, pure water is electrolyzed to generate alkaline electrolytic water so as to replace the effect of a
sodium hydroxide solution, thus achieving transformation of
ammonium ions in a sample solution. The
ammonia nitrogen detection device comprises an
anode compartment
electrodialysis cell, a
cathode compartment electrodialysis
cell, an
electromagnetic valve, an
injection pump and a detection tank, wherein two
electrode compartments of the
anode compartment electrodialysis
cell and the
cathode compartment electrodialysis cell are separated by a cation exchange membrane; cation exchange resin and an
anode electrode are arranged inside the anode compartment; anion exchange resin and a
cathode electrode are arranged inside the cathode compartment. The
ammonia nitrogen detection method comprises the following steps: electrolyzing by the electrodialysis device by using an
electrolytic cell with the two electrode compartments; after
electrolysis, transferring a certain volume of alkaline electrolytic water to the detection tank, mixing the electrolytic water with a
water sample to be detected according to a proportion, and ensuring that the pH of the mixed
water sample is higher than 11 to meet an alkalization need; detecting by using an ammonia-sensitive electrode to obtain the
ammonia nitrogen content value of the
water sample to be detected. Chemical reagents are not required, and alkaline electrolytic water can be continuously generated only by using electrical energy and pure water, so that environment
pollution and secondary
pollution are avoided.
