Dear Waki, Deposit in ...

Dear Waki, Deposit in pipeline may not be directly connected with calcium in water. Calcium salts, being reverse soluble, tend to deposit when the try to heat water especially on hot surface. Unless there is hot surface, scaling possibility is remote! Deposition can occur when presence of salts insoluble in water are suspended as turbidity and these salts can be precipitated especially at low velocity area. Such deposition can be enhanced / or initiated by presence of certain bacteria. Perhaps this could be the real problem and to understand the reason and to suggest appropriate remedial measure, detailed water analysis is essential including BOD, COD organic matter etc. You can send this to me directly to vm@vmbiotech.com or can post it to this forum.
