Description

Calculates the ferric chloride solution consumption in a potable water treatment plant.

Given the water flow to be treated, the desired concentration of ferric chloride for coagulation and flocculation of the water and the concentration of the solution to be prepared for dosage, calculates the ferric chloride solution consumption in mass (admitted concentration: 40%) and volume (admitted density: 1,35), the volume of the dosing solution to be prepared and the dosing flow of the solution.
