17(~29) years ago, I worked  as  a pharmacist in all kinds of experiments of drug analysis at an institute for drug control. Such as GC, HPLC, UV,IR,etc. Titration is the basic experiment. We couple did many different samples. We used the formula TVF for granted. But  didn't think why.

12(~17) years ago, I worked as a senior engineer  in analysis at an environmental monitoring center.As a freshman in cross industry, I heard a lot about CODcr  and  CODmn. Although  use basic titration  method, accurately reporting data is not easy.But COD is not up to me, so  I igored it.

6(~12) years ago, I worked as a senior engineer  in quality control. The National skill competition  would hold.  CODmn was an event. As a ready competitor, I read the GB  11892-1989 carefully, and used  http://self.sinostd.com/  to find the new international standard ISO 8467-1993. When I once had a chance to watch the whole experiment process, I doubted about the complex formula in GB 11892. Maybe This was a  breakthrough point in my career? I was excited .

Many quiet nights, I thought and compared. At last,  we found the TVF  is more simple and  scientific avoiding concentration confusion. Then  the paper was born.

When I searched  for paper publishing,  Springer nature helped me and recommed Discover Chemistry for no charge.

Thanks to my family. Thanks to my colleagues and friends.
