Choosing the right scale inhibitor depends on several factors:
Water composition: The specific minerals and contaminants in the water are analyzed to determine the best type of scale inhibitor. For example, high concentrations of calcium carbonate may require a phosphonate-based scale inhibitor.
Systa conditions: The flow rate, pressure and taperature of the systa will affect the performance of the scale inhibitor. Systas operating at high pressures or taperatures may require a more powerful scale inhibitor.
Concentration of scaling ions: High concentrations of scaling ions (e.g., calcium, magnesium, and silica) require specially designed scale inhibitors to target these minerals.
