Abstract

A water quality measuring system includes a first introduction section for introducing rearing water as a sampling target, and a first adding section which adds an acid to the rearing water introduced by the first introduction section, and a nitrous acid sensor whose measurement target is nitrous acid and which measures the measurement target concentration of the rearing water to which the acid has been added by the first adding section. The water quality measuring system includes a second adding section which adds a base to the rearing water introduced by the first introduction section, and an ammonia sensor whose measurement target is ammonia and which measures the measurement target concentration of the rearing water to which the base has been added by the second adding section.

Claims (21)

1 . A water quality measuring system which measures properties of rearing water which is used for rearing an aquatic organism and which contains a salt content, comprising:

an introduction section which introduces the rearing water as a sampling target;

an adding section which adds an acid to the rearing water introduced by the introduction section; and

a diaphragm type ion sensor whose measurement target is nitrous acid and which measures the measurement target concentration of the rearing water to which the acid has been added by the adding section.

2 . A water quality measuring system which measures properties of rearing water which is used for rearing an aquatic organism and which contains a salt content, comprising:

an introduction section which introduces the rearing water as a sampling target;

an adding section which adds a base to the rearing water introduced by the introduction section; and

a diaphragm type ion sensor whose measurement target is ammonia and which measures the measurement target concentration of the rearing water to which the base has been added by the adding section.

3 . The water quality measuring system according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a second introduction section which introduces the rearing water, which is the sampling target, through a passage different from the introduction section;

an adjustment section which performs a reduction treatment on the rearing water introduced by the second introduction section;

a color forming section which adds a color former to the rearing water chemically reduced by the adjustment section, the color former developing a color by reacting with nitrite ion;

a color sensor which measures the color of the rearing water to which the color former has been added by the color forming section; and

a calculation section which calculates the nitrate ion concentration of the rearing water, which is the sampling target, on the basis of the measurement target concentration detected by the diaphragm type ion sensor and the color of the rearing water detected by the color sensor.

4 . The water quality measuring system according to claim 1 , further comprising a filtration section for filtering the rearing water,

wherein the diaphragm type ion sensor measures the measurement target concentration of the rearing water filtered by the filtration section.

5 . The water quality measuring system according to claim 1 , further comprising a measurement section which measures the concentration of a component which is contained in the rearing water before flowing through the adding section and which differs from the measurement target.

6 . The water quality measuring system according to claim 3 , further comprising a measurement section which measures the concentration of a component which is contained in the rearing water before flowing through the adjustment section and which differs from the measurement target.

7 . The water quality measuring system according to claim 2 , further comprising a filtration section for filtering the rearing water,

wherein the diaphragm type ion sensor measures the measurement target concentration of the rearing water filtered by the filtration section.

8 . The water quality measuring system according to claim 2 , further comprising a measurement section which measures the concentration of a component which is contained in the rearing water before flowing through the adding section and which differs from the measurement target.
