Chemical Test Kits: HI 3818 Carbon Dioxide, 0.0-10.0, 0.0-50.0, 0-100 mg/L, Titration method

• Important for waterssoftening and fish farming applications
• High resolution and accuracy
• Simple to use

In nature, lakes and rivers contain carbon dioxide in concentrations smaller than 10 mg/L (or ppm), however, stagnant or contaminated water can contain higher concentrations because of organic decomposition. This creates a problem for fish farming applications. Carbon dioxide is added to drinking water during the final phases of the purification process. In water softening processes carbon dioxide must be kept at a certain level in order to prevent corrosion.
