Abstract

The ADMI color scale is developed to measure the color of wastewater as an indicator of water quality. ADMI color is a metric quantity based on the Adams Nickerson color difference between the APHA/Pt-Co/Hazen liquid standards and distilled water. The Adams Nickelson color formula is obtained by transforming CIE tristimulus color indices into a uniform metric color scale that is independent of hue. If two colors of different hues are different to the same degree from the reference colorless water, then the difference will be the same. For a general purpose spectrophotometer with a measuring range of 360 nm to 830 nm and the wavelength resolution of 1 nm, we developed an ADMI color application based on APHA 2120F weighted-ordinate spectrophotometric method for measuring the color of wastewater in the range of 0 ADMI to 500 ADMI.
