How do you remove phosphate by chemical dosing from effluent?
One possibility would be to add potassium to the effluent. Potassium and phosphate would combine to form 'flocks' of potassium phosphate, which can be filtered out.

Inhibition in drilling fluids?
Inhibited drilling fluids are mainly used to prevent shale swelling during drilling operations. These drilling muds can be either oil-based or water-based. The most effective way to prevent shale swelling is using oil-based-mud (OBM), but water based muds (WBM) can also be used if such inhibitors like KCl, etc are added to the drilling fluid.
What happens when potassium hydroxide is added to hydrochloric acid?

What happens when chlorine is added to silver nitrate and potassium chloride?
When clhlorine is added to silver nitrate a milky white precipitate of Silver Chloride is formed. Potassium nitrate is also formed. When chlorine is added to potassium chloride nothing visible happens but the solutiuon become more acidic.

What causes the equilibrium to shift when a cooled saturated potassium nitrate solution is added to water?
When a cooled saturated potassium nitrate solution is added to water, the concentration of the potassium nitrate decreases making it less likely that he substance will precipitate out of solution.
