Municipalities and their Engineers often wonder why they should design and invest in a degasification system for their water treatment facility. This system removes unwanted gases from the water, which can improve the water quality and safety. Investing in such a system can therefore be beneficial. What are the problems and cost advantages that degasification will help you overcome?
Degasification is the most cost-effective means of providing higher-quality water and lowering your operational cost. Proper degasification reduces chemical consumption and TSS in treated water. It also prevents corrosive conditions, sulfur, and sulfur bacteria from forming in downstream conveyance and distribution systems.
This extends the life of your equipment. Here are 4 ways that a degasification system can solve your water problems:
1. Produce Higher Quality Water
Degasification eliminates the need for extra chlorine or caustic to be added to the final product water. It is used to remove H2S or reduce CO2 levels. We can reduce the need for chemicals by stripping the Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) from the water with degasification. This results in lower Total Suspended Solids (TSS) levels and better taste for the consumer.
