Boiler Water Treatment

CESTCHEM 2212

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CESTCHEM 2212 alkalinity booster is recommended primarily for raising the pH of feed water and maintain the alkalinity of boiler water. Adequate alkalinity is required to prevent corrosion and to precipitate calcium and magnesium hardness as desired sludge.

PRODUCT APPLICATION
