The conventional technique for the determination of polyphosphate concentration in solution is measuring the difference between total digested P and initial orthophosphate with colorimetry. Online colorimetry was compared with ion chromatography as a method for the speciation and quantification of the chemical species of P supplied in polyphosphate fertilizers. Ion chromatography was able to speciate all of the P species supplied in polyphosphate fertilizer, whereas colorimetry detected only P in solution as orthophosphate and, by the difference between the measurement of digested and undigested samples, total condensed P species. Ion chromatography had a detection limit of 0.02 mg P L-1 for orthophosphate, 0.03 mg P L-1 for pyrophosphate, and 0.05 mg P L-1 for tripolyphosphate. The detection limit for orthophosphate measured by colorimetry was the same as that measured by chromatography, but the working range of concentrations was considerably greater for chromatography - from 0.02 to 200 mg P L-1 compared with 0.02 to 2 mg P L-1.
