The dropper titration method causes the color of the sample to change at the equivalence point. The number of drops needed for the color to change represents the alkalinity concentration.
Alkalinity plays a fundamental role in maintaining pH stability. It is a critical parameter in assessing surface water quality and analyzing the corrosive behavior of water in general water treatment and wastewater treatment. Extreme levels alter the taste of water and cause mineral buildup in industrial plant.
• Meets occasional or domestic use (for frequent testing in an industrial environment, burette methods with large reagent volumes are preferable)
• Option to add your logo
• CMR-free options available
• Accurate
• Fast and easy-to-use
Assess the alkalinity concentration by gradually adding the alkalinity liquor to the sample. Watch the color change from pink to colorless with the TA indicator (CMR-free) or TA phenolphthalein (CMR). For the TAC helianthine the color change is from yellow to orange and from blue-green to pale pink with the TAC reagent.

Power plants: Optimizing heat transfer and reducing costs are essential in power plants. Maintaining the alkalinity of the cooling system preserves the protective oxide layer on the metal pipes. However, excessive alkalinity can lead to unwanted deposits.
Swimming pools: If the alkalinity of the water is too low, the pH can get out of control. If it is too high, there is a risk of scale deposits or cloudy pool water. The CAT of your water should be between 80 and 120 mg/l.
Anaerobic digestion: Alkalinity is essential to maintain optimal pH and ensure that the biological process is working properly.
Ammoniacal nitrogen removal: Constant monitoring of alkalinity is essential to ensure stable nitrification.
Drinking water treatment: Alkalinity acts as a pH buffer, promoting effective coagulation and softening, while controlling corrosivity in the distribution system.
Drinks manufacturing: Alkalinity monitoring is essential to ensure the quality of drinks, preventing spoilage due to incorrect alkalinity.
