Carbon dioxide, a safe alternative to acids
Carbon dioxide is an alternative to acids, traditionally used to neutralise alkaline waters, which main advantages are safety and buffer effect. It allows to obtain the encrusting or aggressive nature of water according to the different equilibria carbonic acid, bicarbonate-carbonates, pH level, temperature, calcium concentration and total salinity in the water.
- Inert nature, non-flammable,
safe to store and ecological.
- Fast regulation of the pH without
danger of acidification.
- Preserves the quality of water
without increasing its salinity with
waste (Al, S, Cl).
- Easy to manipulate, risk free of
burns, spills or leaks.
- Non-corrosive, lengthening life
of equipment and installations.
- Buffer effect, maintaining the pH
in neutral values, self-regulation.
