# §425.03. Sulfide analytical methods and applicability.

- (a) The potassium ferricyanide titration method described in appendix A to [part 425](/cfr/40/part425.md) shall be used whenever practicable for the determination of sulfide in wastewaters discharged by plants operating in all subcategories except the hair save or pulp, non-chrome tan, retan-wet finish subcategory ([subpart C](/cfr/40/subpartC.md), see [§ 425.30](/cfr/40/425.30.md)). In all other cases, the modified Monier-Williams method as described in appendix B to [part 425](/cfr/40/part425.md) shall be used as an alternative to the potassium ferricyanide titration method for the determination of sulfide in wastewaters discharged by plants operating in all subcategories except subpart C.
- (b) The modified Monier-Williams method as described in appendix B to [part 425](/cfr/40/part425.md) shall be used for the determination of sulfide in wastewaters discharged by plants operating in the hair save or pulp, non-chrome tan, retan-wet finish subcategory ([subpart C](/cfr/40/subpartC.md), see [§ 425.30](/cfr/40/425.30.md)).
