Water quality. Determination of phosphorus. Ammonium molybdate spectrometric method

This European standard specifies methods for the determination of orthophosphate (see clause three); orthophosphate after solvent extraction (see clause four); hydrolysable phosphate plus orthophosphate (see clause five); total soluble phosphorus and total phosphorus after decomposition (see clauses six and seven). The methods are applicable to all kinds of water including seawater and effluents.
