Water Softening with Potassium Chloride

Process, Health, and Environmental Benefits

Ebook (PDF Format)

Provides a thorough overview of the process, equipment, and techniques used for softening water with potassium chloride (KCl) regenerant Sodium chloride (NaCl) is typically used to soften water, yet the resulting sodium-rich runoff has no benefits and poses human health and environmental problems. Water Softening with Potassium Chloride lays out an alternative approach that offers a win-win for both the environment and softening performance. Written by the pioneer of the process, this unique resource presents the background, research data and studies, pro and con arguments, and practical applications involved in using potassium chloride for w… Mehr
