Determining the chemical composition of water can give operators an indication of the tendency of the water to generate scale or cause corrosion. Proper treatment of the water based on the chemical analysis prevent scale or corrosion and minimizes down time increasing production. Production water needs to be monitored for major cations and anions that are used as indicators of corrosion or scaling tendency. This course designed to give participants a basic understanding of the causes of deposition and corrosion in water and steam systems. Analysis methods for the major cations and anions that are used as indicators of corrosion and scaling tendency are described.
