Alkalinity Builder, which is used in water treatment processes to control and increase the pH or alkalinity of water.
Key uses and functions include:
pH and Alkalinity Control: It helps maintain specific pH levels in industrial water systems, typically raising the pH into a safe operating range.
Corrosion Prevention: By increasing alkalinity, it helps prevent acid attacks and metal corrosion in systems like boilers, cooling systems, and Reverse Osmosis (RO) treated water systems.
Scale Inhibition: It can help improve the precipitation of certain mineral salts (like calcium and magnesium), aiding in scale control and easier removal via blowdown.
System Protection: It helps stabilize other water treatment additives and ensures the longevity and efficiency of the water treatment equipment.
