Medição e interpretação de valores do potencial redox (E H) em matrizes ambientais

Direct measurements of Redox Potential (ORP) have been used to infer the degree of electrons availability in waters, wastewaters, sediments and soils. Although the interpretation of the results obtained in direct measurements is not trivial, this parameter is part of a list of compulsory determinations required by many Environmental State Agencies as well as consulting companies. Nonetheless, the vast majority of E H reported values are not corrected to the reference electrode used, what makes most of the data incomparable with the literature, and not suitable for a correct environmental diagnostics.
