Amount of HCl Needed with Wastewater
Not what you're looking for?
I need to determine the amount of HCl that would be necessary to reduce the pH of a wastewater from pH 5.0 to pH 4.0.
The wastewater flow is given as 6,056,000 liters/day.
The HCl is a 40% solution. The specific gravity of the HCl is given as 1.20.
How do I determine both the mass and volume per unit time of HCl needed to accomplish the change in pH?
