average ammonia levels in unpolluted freshwater
The USEPA recommends a limit of 0.02 ppm as NH3 in freshwater or marine environments. Total ammonia levels, at this limit, can range from 160 ppm at pH 6 and temperature of 5 degrees C to 0.06 ppm at pH 9 and temperature of 25 degrees C.he USEPA recommends a limit of 0.02 ppm as NH3 in freshwater or marine environments.
