Description

Standard colorimetric method for measuring soluble reactive phosphorus and total dissolved phosphorus in water samples using spectrophotometry. Total dissolved phosphorus samples are first digested with K2S2O8 in a pressure cooker.

Typical Equipment

  • pressure cooker
  • K2S2O8
  • Thermo Scientific GENESYS 10S UV-VIS Spectrophotometer

Output Measurements

  • soluble reactive phosphorus concentration
  • total dissolved phosphorus concentration
