One possible method of drinking water treatment is chlorine dioxide disinfection. This technology, however, requires reliable control of its byproducts, including chlorite ions., which pose a threat to human health. In this paper an original procedure for flow indirect determination of chlorite in drinking water was described. This method relies on oxidization of chlorite ions by iron(III) in acid environment measurement of the spectrophotometric signal for the phenanthroline/iron(II) complex. The determinations were carried out by flow analysis with the use of a dedicated set of flow instruments. The method was used for analysis of natural samples collected from various water intakes in Kraków. The new analytic approach was compared with the routinely applied ion chromatography method.
