Carbon Dioxide for pH Regulation
Effective Water Treatment for Construction Sites
Meeting Rising Regulatory Pressures
Construction sites, ready-mix concrete plants and mining operations produce large volumes of alkaline wastewater. Increasingly strict environmental controls precisely regulate the pH of this wastewater before it can be discharged into receiving channels or sewerage systems.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an effective way to control pH and reduce reliance on harmful chemicals. When dissolved in water, carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid, an effective neutralization agent with the key advantage of an almost flat neutralization curve.
Our SOLVOCARB® pH control solution leverages these benefits, giving you an easy and precise way to adjust the desired pH value even if the raw water parameters are subject to fluctuations - without having to worry about over-acidification. It thus combines simplified dosing with a smaller environmental footprint.
