🔍 Key Concepts

• Flash evaporator operation and how pressure/vacuum affects boiling temperature and scaling • Relationship between feedwater chemistry and scale formation on heating surfaces • Difference between treating water before it enters the evaporator vs. after it leaves as brine

💭 Think About

• Which choice actually changes the tendency of minerals to precipitate and stick to hot surfaces, rather than just changing operating pressure? • If the goal is to keep the same distillate production rate, which options might disrupt evaporation conditions and which would mainly alter scaling behavior? • Ask yourself: does treating water after it has already contacted the heating surface help prevent scale on that surface?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which action directly affects water hardness and dissolved mineral content before contact with heating surfaces • Check how changing shell absolute pressure (vacuum) influences boiling temperature and whether that alone prevents or just relocates scaling • Confirm whether any option focuses on preventing scale formation vs. dealing with its consequences after it forms
