What Does TSS Stand For?
TSS stands for Total Suspended Solids
Total Suspended Solids (TSS) refers to the particulate matter suspended in water that can include a mixture of organic and inorganic materials. TSS is a critical parameter in water quality assessments, impacting aquatic life and ecosystem health. High levels of TSS can indicate pollution, block sunlight, and impede photosynthesis, while also affecting the effectiveness of water treatment processes. Monitoring TSS is essential for managing water resources and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.
