Significance of Use
Groundwater normally contains ammonia due to the bacterial decay of plants and animals. However, ammonia concentrations in rivers and drinking water reservoirs may indicate the presence of agricultural runoff or urban pollution. When the concentration of ammonia is high enough, it can alter the smell and taste of water. In industrial applications, high concentrations of ammonia can cause corrosion in pipes. Ammonia is also monitored in freshwater aquariums and fish farming applications because of its toxicity to fish.
