🔍 Key Concepts

• Role of chloride ions in boiler water chemistry • Differences between total dissolved solids (TDS), hardness, and specific ion contamination • Why marine auxiliary boilers must be monitored for corrosion risk and carryover

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: does a chloride test measure all dissolved substances, only scale-forming minerals, or just one type of ion? • Think about which problem chlorides are most associated with in boilers: scale, corrosion, or disinfection chemicals? • Consider what engineers are worried about when seawater leaks into a boiler system.

✅ Before You Answer

• Clarify what water hardness actually measures (which ions?). • Recall what TDS represents: is it a broad or specific measurement? • Match chloride content with the most likely source on a ship (e.g., seawater) and the main concern that would create.
