What is Organic Carbon Analysis in Marine Muds about?

The document describes a method for analyzing the organic carbon content of marine muds. The method involves oxidizing the samples with chromic acid and titrimetrically determining the amount of oxidant consumed. An empirical correction factor is used to correlate the results with carbon content determined through combustion. Testing showed the method can determine organic carbon in muds with about 7% variation when the carbon content is around 1%. The method can also be adapted to approximately analyze pla
