What is the difference between total dissolved solids and total suspended solids?

total dissolved solids is how much of the solid is dissolved in the liquid, while suspended total suspended solids is the amount of the solid floating in the liquid. e.g. if you had a solution with both and you filtered the solution then evaporated out the liquid, the solids that you filtered out would be the suspended solids, and the the solids remaining after evaporating the liquid out would be the disolved solids.

What is TDS and TSS in waste water?

TDS - Total Dissolved Solids TSS - Total Suspended Solids "Dissolved solids" refer to any minerals, salts, metals, cations or anions dissolved in water. Total dissolved solids (TDS) comprise inorganic salts (principally calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, bicarbonates, chlorides and sulfates) and some small amounts of organic matter that are dissolved in water. The suspended or colloidal particles, commonly referred to as total suspended solids (TSS), are all the extremely small suspended solids in water which will not settle out by gravity.
