colloids or suspended materials in water

The optimal method for removing turbidity without removing colour has not been
found yet. Filtration yields results that are reproducible from day to day and among
laboratories.
the term apparent colour includes not only colour due to substances in solution but
also due to suspended matter. In some highly coloured industrial wastewaters,
colour is contributed principally by colloids or suspended materials. In such cases
both true colour and apparent colour should be determined.
