Publisher's Synopsis
This is a compilation of tables covering the ranges of temperature alkalinity and pH alkalinity to be encountered in industrial systems using water for heating or cooling. For the plant operator checking and adjusting water treatment processes, and for the service engineer, the use of the book for monitoring water treatment in a number of plants will provide a straightforward method of calculation and save much valuable time in previous trial and error calculations.;The book expands upon published works in the literature for alkalinity effects of temperature at pH, providing solutions to the problem of the changes in the pH factor of water before it enters the system, and describing chemical treatments to be applied, as well as control tests for monitoring treated water.
