with a pH of 2, lime will be expensive, although that is the typical method. Levels below 1 ppm are typical with lime at a pH of 7. I can only assume that the waste stream is to be recycled in the plant, with a pH of 2.
WTP03,
Betz calls their program REGENAMINE. The technology is very good.
You would be best served by surveying your condensate system prior to experimenting. You may get unexpected results. Amines are used in distinct ratios, based on their DR and neutralizing capability and their recycle...
It seems clear that KRSServices has provided the correct, if not concise, cause of the incident. Certainly we all agree that a manhole meets the requirement of a confined space entry. Certainly we all agree that oxidation occuring within the manhole consumed oxygen such that the space was...
WTP03:
Neutralizing amine costs are a function of condensate return and amine recycle. Your polisher removes all amine from the condensate, so there is no recycle. A viable alternative is to regenerate your polisher with an amine, and thereby reduce your amine costs significantly, perhaps by...
A couple of thoughts....using reject water from the RO system by itself means high chemical costs for corrosion and scale control. If you are trying to squeeze more use out of your water, there are better approaches. Gas Chlorine is the best biocide for high alkalinity and high volume water...
The head roll requires more belt contact for friction to pull the belt. Sometimes a re roll is installed to give more than 180 degrees of contact. The tail is freewheeling.

I cannot comment on the RO membrane contribution, but before you invest in new resin, make absolutely sure that there is no leakage around the anion bed. A pH of 4 is trivial in low conductivity water, and may be a miniscule amount of untreated water bypassing the anion bed. Physically break...
The ions removed are only calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity. When the water is sprayed, the CO2 of course enters the air, where it is available. Thanks for the reply,
Material handling is my company's focus, so I'll take another stab at this. Product flow problems can be static, where the particular product, the transfer line, or the holding bin are allowing static to accumulate in the product. This is generally the problem with light (30 pcf) plastic resin...
Learned friends,
A water doctor friend of mine tells me that his plant is about to install a PowerPure system from Chardon Labs, and I was hoping one of you fine folk would have some information on this device. The idea is that either makeup or cooling tower water is circulated through this...
My company makes a water pretreatment system that produces water with very low calcium and high levels of dissolved CO2 from high conductivity water. Is this something that would be useful in the large commercial greenhouse market? Is there anything good or bad about this quality water for plants?
