The chemicals used for water treatment depend on the specific treatment purpose and the required water quality standards. The following are several common water treatment agents:
Purifying water quality agents:
Activated carbon: used to remove organic matter, odors, and chromaticity.
Silicone: can be used to remove heavy metal ions and organic matter.
Polymer flocculant: used to coagulate and precipitate suspended solids.
Reactive oxygen species: can eliminate microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses.
Disinfectants:
Sodium hypochlorite or bleaching powder: used to kill bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms.
Ozone: Kills microorganisms through oxidation reactions.
UV disinfectants: Use ultraviolet radiation to destroy bacteria and viruses.
Scale inhibitor:
Corrosion inhibitor: used to prevent corrosion of metal pipelines and equipment.
Chelating agent: It can form a complex with metal ions to prevent the formation of scale.
Softening agent:
Ion exchange resin: used to remove hardness ions (such as calcium and magnesium) from water.
Phosphate: It can form stable complexes and reduce the impact of hard water on equipment.
Appropriate water treatment agents need to be selected based on specific circumstances and water quality analysis. During use, it is necessary to ensure correct dosing according to the guidance provided by the pharmaceutical supplier, and strictly follow relevant operating procedures to ensure the effectiveness and safety of water treatment.
