Overview
The Hach sensION+ 9662 nitrate ion selective electrode is a half-cell (reference not integrated) nitrate ion selective electrode (ISE) with an epoxy body and non-replaceable, solid-state PVC (polymer) membrane selective to nitrate ions in solution. Ultimately, the 9662 provides fast, stable and accurate response in a variety of sample types.
Application
It is recommended for use with the sensION+ 5044 reference electrode. The Hach sensION+ 9662 has a fixed 1-meter cable and BNC connector for laboratory use with the Hach sensION+ MM374 Multimeter. The Hach sensION+ 9662 Nitrate Ion Selective Electrode is ideal for measuring nitrate concentrations in drinking water, wastewater and general water quality applications.
Mechanics
The Hach sensION+ 9662 nitrate ion selective electrode utilizes a unique solid-state sensor technology that eliminates costly membrane replacements, whereas traditional PVC-membrane ISEs require membrane replacement every 2-3 months. The 9663 ISE’s unique solid-state sensor technology eliminates the need for frequent membrane replacement. This design allows users to get up to 2 years of life from their ISE without membrane replacement. The solid-state sensor design requires little maintenance and allows for dry storage of the ISE without a shelf life or membrane replacement.

Kansas State classes get a lesson in environmental remediation
Kansas State University professors transformed a plot of land from a problem to a classroom, teaching students on the fly to remediate nutrient pollution. Saugata Datta, an associate professor of geology, and Nathan Nelson, an associate professor of agronomy, taught students to evaluate, sample and remediate land using Kansas Department of Health and Environment protocols. It started when Chris Steincamp, an environmental lawyer and KSU alumnus, asked Datta if his geology students could restore a tract of land in Sylvan Grove Kan. Datta jumped at the opportunity to give his students hands-on experience in a process usually reserved for regulators and consultants. It helped that O.C.

Until recently, Sargassum –a free-floating seaweed–was distributed throughout the Sargasso Sea , the north Caribbean Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico. But in the space of a decade, this seaweed has, as one scientist remarks , “Gone from a nonfactor to the source of a terrible crisis.” Driven by climate change, anomalous North Atlantic Oscillation in 2009-2010 and a glut of anthropogenic pollutants, sargassum has proliferated. Seasonally recurrent mats as deep as 7m now bloom in the “Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt” (GASB), which covers areas of the Atlantic from West Africa to the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico. Every year, millions of tons wash up along the shores of more than 30 countries . Dr.

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ( NOAA ), the Great Lakes have more miles of coastline than the contiguous Atlantic and Pacific coasts combined and contain 20 percent of the world's freshwater, making it a critical region to protect and conserve. Continuous monitoring and data-informed resource management are key components of managing waters in the region. Hayden Henderson, a research engineer with the Great Lakes Research Center (GLRC), designs and deploys monitoring platforms throughout the Great Lakes. With a background in environmental engineering, Henderson enjoyed the challenge of creating systems and making them work to obtain difficult, remote measurements.
