What is the “perfect” water test kit for an industrial water treatment professional?

  1. Bonjour Pour ce genre d'approche il faut déjà connaitre l'origine de provenance de cette eau. Ensuite éventuiellement faire une détection de pollution dissoute, une opération onéreuse. Après on peut éventuellement appliqué un process si tous les écrans sont négatifs.

    Hello for this kind of approach you must already know the origin of this water. Then éventuiellement do a dissolved pollution detection, an expensive operation. Then one can eventually apply a process if all the screens are negative.

  2. It does not exist yet.  Sort of close approximations can be had for money, though.

  3. A custom kit from AquaPhoenix Scientific! what esle

  4. This is a question that has a number of answers based on what the Professional is tasked with doing and the industry in which they operate. Since the tasks may be so far spread as well as industries so diverse, I don't think there could be a perfect kit.

    However, there would be one old stand-by that everyone should have and it would be a titration kit to run alkalinities, Hardness, pH and conductivity. I happen to prefer ones with small burettes  that permit the use of generic reagents. After this, add-ons for PO4, SiO2, Fe and on are all an industry or task specific need.

  5. Good question. 

    Each industry water treating may have their own set of parameters and onsite preference. I saw this first when doing heavy oil produced water treating, many engineer, operators asked what test kit to have and what test method to use... In many cases, doing it is not as easy as talking and reading in manual as industrial water changes as we either take it out of live flow or it change from time to time, good examples would be dissolved oxygen and ORP measurements.

    I believe an "ideal" test kit would be able to test water sample quick and easy onsite thus to get "real time" data. Also it can do various parameters by switching probes...

    1. SL1000 from Hach is an portable parallel analyzer with many parameters to chose on. Easy to use and  quick response.
