| Popis: | Electrolytically driven formation of slow-to-precipitate insoluble salts such as calcium carbonate from meta-stabile, supersaturated solution may be employed to control deposit formation on heat exchange and other surfaces in practical systems such as industrial process water and evaporative cooling water loops. Cathodic fouling due presence of dissolved calcium salts has proven historically troublesome in metal plating and water electrolysis operations. It is perhaps somewhat ironic that this classical nuisance points to a mechanism that may be employed to control troublesome deposition throughout large real-world recirculating water systems and effectively establish a new strategy of water treatment with implications of environmental and economic benefit. |
