What is pH of boiler feed water?

Well I'm not hundred percent sure of that but as long as I am aware it should remain a '7' because it's still neutral meaning pure water just heated up a little and if it does happen to change then I believe it would be a 8 ranging towards basic not acidic.


How can you eliminate a hydrogen sulfide odor in the water from a new hot water heater even after the anode has been replaced with an aluminum one?

You need to replace the aluminum anode with a zinc/aluminum alloy anode.ANS 2 - If a hydrogen sulfide (or rotten egg) odour exists around your water, it's often an indicator of excess iron in the water supply. This can be bad for your plumbing. I would advise taking a water sample(in a sterilised bottle) to a lab and have it analysed. If the iron content is very high you may well have to fit a softener or an iron filter.BTW - changing the anode is an excellent idea anyway. Just may not be the solution.

What percentage in drinking water is chemicals?

If it is water, it is 100% potable (drinkable). Most of earth's water is in the oceans, where it's high salt (mostly salts other than NaCL table salt) content makes it NOT potable. Most of earth's fresh water is locked up in polar ice. Groundwater accounts for well over 90% of the remainder of the freshwater. Most of that is potable, though some of it is high in minerals that make it taste unpleasant.

How is NEWater generated to Singapore?

NEWater is the high grade water produced after treated used water has been further purified using a 3-step process involving advanced membrane technologies like Microfiltration, Reverse Osmosis, and the final disinfection of the product water using ultraviolet light. Non-Potable Uses of NEWater: PUB's NEWater initiatives which began in 2001 to increase water supply from unconventional sources has produced good outcomes. Substitution of PUB water with NEWater for non-potable use would free large amount of potable water for other potable purposes. Besides wafer fabrication processes, NEWater can also be used for non-potable applications in manufacturing processes and other industries as well as air-con cooling towers in commercial buildings. Potable usage of NEWater NEWater could also be used for indirect potable use by blending with reservoir water. This is nothing new. For over 20 years, several cities in the United States have mixed reclaimed water with reservoir water to supply households. Some of these places include Orange County, outside Los Angeles, Phoenix, Arizona and Fairfax County, north Virginia. In fact, many cities along major rivers in the world like River Rhine, Mississippi River, Yangtze River and Mekong River have also been practicing unplanned indirect potable use of reclaimed water, with upstream water users discharging treated used water into a water source that serves as a water supply for a downstream user. NEWater is also of drinking water standard.

How do you naturally treat well water?
