pH-control

Water can behave in a corrosive manner, which is a problem that needs to be considered during water treatment. Different countries have drawn up their own recommendations for water quality, in order to produce potable water with a certain, acceptable degree of corrosion risk. There are large variations between these recommendations.

Depending on the composition of the distribution piping, a variety of substances, including copper and iron, can be dissolved and contaminate the water. There are several factors that affect corrosion: pH, alkalinity and calcium concentration.
