How should water-treatment ingredients be selected?
Start with water analysis, pH, temperature, recovery or concentration cycles and the deposit risk. Chelation, threshold inhibition and dispersion are different mechanisms, so the current grade specification and system testing should determine the final program.
Chelant and scale-control products
Review identity, active content, form and application context before requesting a grade.
