He finished his secondary education in 1857 at Bergen Cathedral School, and enrolled in medicine studies at the University of Christiania. In 1861 he defected, fascinated by the field of chemistry.

He wrote several books, and his textbooks were reprinted several times.〔 He also contributed to the biographical dictionary ''Norsk biografisk leksikon''. Hiortdahl was a co-founder of the Norwegian Chemical Society in 1893, and chaired the society from 1906 to 1912. When stepping down he became an honorary member. He also taught chemistry at the Norwegian Military College from 1868 to 1912, chaired the supervising committee for the Higher College of Agriculture at Aas from 1881 to 1896, and was also a member of Kristiania city council from 1883 to 1892.
