Use Indigo® ammonia test strips to monitor nitrification efficiency and discharge compliance in wastewater and sewage treatment systems.
Indigo® Instruments ammonia test strips (0-100 ppm) provide fast, reliable checks of ammonia levels in wastewater and sewage effluent. Designed for plant operators, engineers, and environmental technicians, these strips support process optimization and help verify compliance with EPA and NPDES discharge limits. Their quick color-change response enables immediate field or lab testing without reagents or instruments, ideal for both on-site troubleshooting and daily monitoring.
