The present invention relates to a total organic carbon content measuring device without a catalyst and using a ceramic ball, which adopts a method in which organic carbon is converted into carbon oxide by an oxidation reactor. The total organic carbon content measuring device includes: a reactor (20); a cylindrical protection tube (22) inserted into the reactor (20), the cylindrical protection tube having a lower end on which a sieve (24) is installed; a ceramic ball (26) filled into the cylindrical protection tube (22); a heater heating the total organic carbon content measuring device to a temperature of about 1,200 ± 200°C; and a temperature adjustment part for supplying a current to the heater. In the total organic carbon content measuring device without a catalyst using the ceramic ball according to the present invention, the temperature thereof may be controlled to a relatively high temperature of about 1,200 ± 200°C when compared to a device in a catalyst method according to a related art which controls the temperature to 600 - 1,000°C, and the ceramic ball may be filled into the protection tube. Thus, the protection tube may have a uniform temperature distribution therein without using a catalyst such as platinum, so as to prevent salt from being crystallized and promote evaporation, thereby providing an accurate TOC measurement. Thus, the thermal combustion total organic carbon content measuring device, having a significantly reduced burden for maintenance and repair while not using a catalyst, is provided. |
