For Better Understanding
What is Water Chemistry ?
Purely Scientific Definition
Any foreign substance in water, which is not H2O is considered a contaminant
What are Contaminants
Study of Substances (Contaminants) Present in Water
Any foreign matter un-dissolved or dissolved in water, makes it unfit for general,
domestic and industrial use is a contaminant
These foreign substances may come from natural or unnatural sources
Which includes particulate matters, atmospheric gases, inorganic & organic
compound and bio-organism
What Are Water Contaminants ?
Contaminants physical, chemical & biologicalproperties depends on water sources
Depending on specific use, if water has theseimpurities in a considerable quantity, it become
unsuitable
All waters available are considered not good for human activities
What Are Water Contaminants ?
Water can contain up to 90 possible contaminants at unacceptable concentrationTreatment depends on chemistry of
contaminants

WHY TO CHECK WATER QAULITY?WATER ANALYSIS DEPENDS ON USER’S PARTICULAR NEEDS AND
REQUIREMENTSWATER ANALYSIS IS CRITICAL & MOST IMPORTANT
CONSIDERATION FOR SUCCESSFUL DESIGN, OPERATION AND
INTERPRETATION OF TREATMENT PLANT & USES OF TREATED WATER
ROLE OF WATER ANALYSISTO ASSESS THE LEVEL OF CONTAMINATION
TO IDENTIFY AND MEASURE THE NATURE & QUANTITY OF
CONTAMINANTSTO DETERMINE THE BEST METHOD TO CONTROL /

PROCESSES TO EVALUATE THE DESIGN AND OPERATION PRINCIPLE &
PARAMETERS FOR CONTROL
SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
The sample collector must be fully trained in sampling technique, objective of analysis and
field test procedures
Use proper sampling procedure and container
Collect representative sample sufficient enough in volume, to be transported conveniently and
analyzed as being sampled
The reliability of analytical results and interpretation of data depends on sampling
Sample collection methods depends on the source & the nature of analysis and control program
GRAB SAMPLESample collected at a particular time and place, represents the
composition of the sources,
COMPOSITE SAMPLEA mixture of garb samples collected at the same sampling
point at different times,
INTEGRATED SAMPLEA mixture of grab samples collected from
different points simultaneously, or as nearly so as possible,
SAMPLE COLLECTION METHODSSAMPLING TECHNIQUE
Frequent sampling is beneficial for the process andquality control
Depends on the variation in water analysis
The type of treatment processes used & Other factors
Careful sampling ensure, analytical resultsrepresent the actual sample composition

It is a sieve that strains out undesirable particles, It is in either sheets or fibers forms,
The membrane has tiny holes, water molecules pass through but larger particles are kept out,
Some membranes are designed to trap larger particles such as bacteria, protozoa and
“suspended solids”,Others stop even the tiniest particles such as
salts, viruses and pharmaceuticals,

pH indicates the acidic or basic nature of a water, The term assume the activity of hydrogen ion,
a H + is being considered, and a logarithmic scale is used to express a wide range of ionic activities.
Where as pH is expressed, pH = - log10 a H + , The Power of Hydrogen ions,
The pH value always lies between 0 and 14.

HOW TO INTERPRATE WATER ANALYSIS
Low TDS water of RO or any other desalination process is highly corrosive in nature
Water Corrosiveness
Why low TDS water is corrosive ?Low TDS water are particularly low in calcium,
pH, alkalinity, and high in carbon dioxide,
Low silica content, (reduce water buffering capacity)
Ratio of alkalinity to chloride and sulfate,
Why to control corrosiveness ?Corrosiveness of water damages
Water mains,Storage tanks,
Plumbing,Process Equipment,
Depending on corrosive nature water other quality is also changed
Water Corrosiveness
Major Factors Influencing CorrosionpH
TemperatureDissolved SolidsSystem DepositsWater Velocity
Microbiological Growth
Water Corrosiveness
All water systems experiences some degree of corrosion. The objective is to control the corrosion well enough to maximize the life
expectancy of the system...
How chemist asses the corrosive nature ?Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) = pH - pHs
Ryzner Stability Index (RSI) = 2 pHs - pH
Saturation (pHs) is required to calculate IndicesAnd for pHs temperature, pH,& calcium, alkalinity
& ionic concentration in water Calculated as pHs= p Calcium + p Alkalinity +C
What is required to calculate indices ?
Water Corrosiveness
Water CorrosivenessRELATION BETWEEN INDEXES & WATER STABILITY
Index Value Stability of water
LSIIf pH < pHs SI is negative The water is corrosiveIf pH < pHs SI is positive The water is scale forming
RSI
5 – 6 Slight scale forming6 – 7 Equilibrium
7 – 7.5 Slightly corrosive7.5 – 8.5 Highly corrosive

Water CorrosivenessTECHNIQUES TO STABILIZE WATER
Several techniques are used to stabilize waterThe selection of techniques depend on the final water
quality needed and the applicationThe more frequent techniques
Blending the product water with the raw other water source
Adding lime to adjust the pH and to increase Ca2+ concentration
Adding CO2 and adjusting the pH to increase both the Ca2+ and the alkalinity
Calcite (lime stone) contractorAdding corrosion inhibitors
Water CorrosivenessTECHNIQUES TO STABILIZE WATERCalcite Contractor
Limestone contactors advantagesEasier and safer to operate,
Reduces operating cost, Self adjusts the water pH
without risk of alkali overdose, Requires minimal maintenance and operator skills,
Does not require continuous feed of chemicals
KINDASA WATER SPECIAILITYKINDASA Water Quality’s International
ReputationKINDASA and PEPESI jointly sent the water
samples to NSF approved laboratories for thorough analysis
40 – Inorganic chemicals :–Only Ca, Mg, Na, K, Zn, B, Cl2, ClO2 & ClO4 found higher than bottle water specification,
157 – Organic chemicals :– Nothing is detected,5 – Radionuclides :–Only Tritium <270 pCi/l
limit is 2700 pCi/l,
KINDASA WATER SPECIAILITYKINDASA Water Quality is The Best…..?KINDASA do not use any chemical without
studying its properties and effect on potable waterAll chemicals used in process are manufactured
using natural raw materials,All chemicals are safe and non polluting,
No organic or polymeric chemicals are used in process,
Only two RO cleaning chemicals are used off line,The most important mission of KINDASA
technology is pamper the customer’s

RO Feed WaterIon Exchange Resin
Continuous deionization technique where mixed bed ion-exchange resins, ion-exchange membranes and a small DC electric current continuously remove ions from water (commercialize by Millipore in mid 80’s)
Performance enhancements:Ion-exchange added to waste channels improve ion transfer and removal.Conductive beads aded to cathode electrode channel reduces risk of scale and use of a softener
Cations driven toward negative electrode by DC current Anions driven toward positive electrode by DC current Alternating anion permeable and cation permeable membranes effectively separate ions from
water RO feed water: Avoids plugging, fouling and scaling of the EDI module
