Skillman Index for Calcium Sulfate scaling
Skillman Index for Calcium Sulfate scaling
(OP)
I came across a reference to the "Skillman Index" for Calcium Sulfate scaling while looking into information on scale inhibitors for sulfate scaling in an evaporator.
I was unable to find anything more than 1 single-line reference to this with my limited resources.
If somebody could give me an idea where to look for information on this or any other info on Calcium Sulfate scale inhibition, it would be appreciated.
Thanks

RE: Skillman Index for Calcium Sulfate scaling
The way CaSO4 scale is inhibited is similar to CaCO3: by means of a polyacrilate or acrilic-co-polymer, and/or a Ca-complexation agent. Some comercial polyacrilates bulletins have specific info about CaSO4 antiscalling performance.
I wish I´d have more info, but this has been enought for me to deal with diferent water cooling towers.
