Hi all,
@Ganga,
I agree both with Mike and Dean. The pre-edge Features are very strong, to say the least. I am wondering if this Anaerobic MBR Technology helps towards the Formation of other forms of P. Maybe Phosphonates?
Also, how is your heavy metal Content? I have seen some lead Phosphates that have a very strong pre-edge. Altouugh the second pre-edge feature I have never seen.
Perhaps you could look into These spectra, altough might be far fetched to your System.

Kind regards

Mike made a very good point. Both of the lower-energy features do seem unusually intense relative to the normalized background, at least in comparison to most Fe or Al bonded phosphate species that I've seen.

Hmm fair enough. I'm not necessarily claiming it's not a "real" feature, but I would definitely be cautious of going looking for an interpretation of this one until I was absolutely sure.
To me, 5000 ppm potentially seems a bit high still, but I don't know the detector or setup you're using, or how many replicate spectra you are comfortable with taking. Maybe a 2:1 or 3:1 dilution would at least be worth trying, just from looking at the spectrum it seems like you may have room to go lower.
But I'm also curious to dig through my notes and data so I'll do that as soon as I can, too.
Cheers,
Mike

Given what you said about the system, the lower energy feature at ~ 2146 eV should be Fe(III)-bonded phosphate and the feature at ~2149 eV should be Al(III)-bonded phosphate. Both produce pre-white line absorption peaks, but the Al-bonded phosphate peak is closer to the white line and less distinct in spectra of Al-phosphates like variscite and non-crystalline Al-phosphate, for example (see Khare et al. 2007. *Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta* 71:4405, Fig. 5C). A significant proportion of the phosphate in your system apparently precipitated with Al-13 polymer structures in the aluminum chlorohydrate.
