Testing procedure for phosphate accelerator

Sir, I want to ask about the test that we can conduct to check the sodium nitrite content ( accelerator) in phosphate chemical bath , an alternative way other than using sacrometer, any titration method if your would suggest.

Ion Chromatography will work just fine, or an Ion Specific Electrode analysis. These are the easiest ways.
