[0002] For the total copper test in wastewater, generally, the water sample of the wastewater needs to be digested, color-developed and extracted, and colorimetrically determined. The specific process of water sample digestion is to use acidic reagents to destroy the organic matter and reducing substances in the wastewater to be measured at a certain temperature, so that they become part of the measurable substances. The digestion device is an important component for water sample digestion in the total copper test of wastewater.
