Carbon Dioxide, a safe alternative to acids
Carbon Dioxide is ideal for lowering the pH value of alkaline waste water. It is a more cost effective and safer alternative than mineral acids traditionally used.
With CO2 becoming a weak acid in water, dosing is more gentle and maintaining the pH value at the required level is also easier than dosing with a strong mineral acid.
- 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.
