pH meter is an instrument used to measure acidity or alkalinity of a solution - also know as pH. pH is the unit of measure that describes the degree of acidity or alkalinity. It is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. It's easy to take for granted that pH meters exist and are fairly easy to use. If we think in more historical terms, however, it's actually pretty amazing.
A pH meter is consisted of three different parts: an internal electrode, a reference electrode, and a high input impedance meter. Glass probe often contains the two electrodes -- internal electrode and reference electrode. The internal electrode is a Silver wire covered with Silver Chloride (Ag/AgCl wire), and reference electrode is often made up of the same materials. Inside the probe is a buffer solution at pH of 7. Measured pH is the difference in [H+] between the reference buffer inside the probe and the sample solution.
The pH measurements are made by comparing the pH reading of a sample solution to that of a reference solution with defined pH, such as buffers. Therefore, it is important to calibrate the instrument with appropriate buffer solutions before making any measurements. The figure on the right is a simple depiction of a glass electrode used with pH meters.
An electronic pH meter is used to obtain more accurate pH measurements. A pH meter is an instrument used to measure hydrogen ion activity in solutions - in other words, this instrument measures acidity/alkalinity of a solution. The degree of hydrogen ion activity is ultimately expressed as pH level, which generally ranges from 1 to 14.
This pH measurement is directly related to the ratio of hydrogen ion concentration and hydroxyl ion concentration ([H+] and [OH-], respectively). The general breakdown of pH levels is listed below:
- Neutral solution: pH = 7
- Acidic solution: pH < 7
- Basic solution: pH > 7
A neutral solution will show a pH of 7 due to the equal activities of hydrogen and hydroxide ions. Acidic solutions exhibit pH readings below 7 (higher hydrogen ion activity compared to hydroxide ion activity), and basic (or alkaline) solutions exhibit pH levels above 7 (hydroxide ion activity is greater than that of hydrogen ion).
Global pH Meters Market is estimated to grow significantly in the forecast period owing to the introductions in technologies, favorable regulations and need to control waterborne diseases conditions.
pH is measured with the help of pH indicators in the form of a solution, pH strips or potentiometric method.
Precisely, a pH meter is an accurate voltmeter connected to pH and reference electrodes, which is scaled in a way that displays ready pH value.
Technological modernizations and portable design in pH meters are the main reasons driving pH meters market.
The permitted concentration of individual pollutant constituent may vary five times from the standard set from one nation to another.This increases the total cost and time required for the maintenance of pH meters.
The global pH meter Market was worth USD 1.32 billion in 2014 and is expected to reach approximately USD 2.15 billion by 2023 at a CAGR of 5.60%.
The pH meter is a device that measures acidity or alkalinity of water based solutions with the help of potential difference between its electrodes.
The pH meter industry is driven by rising demand of these devices in various industries like agriculture, food processing, water treatment, mining, pharmaceuticals, etc.
Hence, blood transfusion facilities need to employ systems to detect the bacteria in Platelet (PLT) apparatuses.
Thus, the demand for pH meters is increasing rapidly in the field of hospitals, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical laboratories, ultimately boosting growth of the pH meter market.Request a Report Sample with Toc and figures to click here: http://marketgrowthanalysis.com/reports/sample/251The pH meter Market is segmented as follows-By Type:Bench Top metersPortable pH MetersContinuous pH metersBy Application:Food ScienceBioprocessingChemicals and PetrochemicalsWater and Wastewater TreatmentEducational LaboratoriesEnvironmental Research and Pollution ControlBy End User:Food and BeveragePharmaceutical and Biotechnology CompaniesGovernment and Academic InstitutionsRequest for enquiry on This Report at: http://marketgrowthanalysis.com/reports/enquiry/251In 2014, Europe was the highest revenue generating region with the revenue share of over 32%.
