Popis: The results obtained from combined numerical and experimental investigations of the water decarbonization process carried out in atmospheric-pressure deaerators without subjecting water to steam bubbling in the deaerator tank are presented. More exact values of the hydrocarbonate thermal decomposition rate have been obtained, and the hypothesis about a change of the process governing mechanism in shifting to low total alkalinity values of deaerated water has been proven in the course of these investigations. A procedure for predicting the indicators characterizing the water decarbonization efficiency in using deaerators is proposed based on the obtained study results. The developed procedure features the maximally possible accuracy that can be achieved at the metrological characteristics of the standard alkalinity measurement methods.
