Alkalinity
What is Alkalinity:
The alkalinity of water is a measurement of its buffering capacity, or its ability to resist changes in pH. Alkalinity of natural waters is typically a combination of bicarbonate, carbonate, and hydroxide ions. Sewage and wastewater usually exhibit higher alkalinities due to the presence of silicates and phosphates. Alkalinity inhibits corrosion in boiler and cooling waters. It is also used to control water and wastewater treatment processes or ...
