Understanding Parts Per Million (PPM)

Parts per million (PPM) is a way of expressing very dilute concentrations of substances. Just as percent means out of a hundred, PPM means out of a million. For example, 1 PPM means:

  • 1 milligram of substance per liter of solution
  • 1 gram of substance per 1,000,000 grams of solution
  • 1 drop of substance in 50 liters of solution

Common Uses of PPM

  • Water quality measurements
  • Air pollution monitoring
  • Chemical solution preparation
  • Food and beverage industry

PPM Formula

The formula to calculate PPM is:

PPM = (Parts / Total Parts) × 1,000,000
