🔍 Key Concepts

• Boiler water internal treatment methods • Difference between a precipitating treatment and a pH indicator • Common chemicals used to remove hardness (calcium and magnesium) by forming sludge that can be blown down

💭 Think About

• Ask which chemical actually reacts with calcium to form an insoluble compound that can be removed, instead of just changing pH or indicating pH • Identify which options are really just different names for the same substance and think about their typical use in boiler water programs • Consider which chemical is known in water treatment as a phosphate precipitating agent for hardness

✅ Before You Answer

• Eliminate anything that is only a test indicator, not a treatment chemical • Recognize that caustic soda = sodium hydroxide, and recall its main role in boiler water (pH/alkalinity control vs. hardness removal) • Focus on which choice is widely used in boiler treatment to precipitate calcium as a removable sludge rather than keep it in solution
