sodium citrate, extraction acidity of pH 5.95 had been found optimal for extraction of phenolic compounds. Under the above-mentioned conditions the once average recoveries of phenol, o-chlorophenol and o-nitrophenol in analogous water samples were 99.5%, 95.3%, 94.7%, respectively. When sodium citrate was as salt separate phase...
