In daily life, we often see scale formation on the inner wall of the kettle after being used for a long time. What is the reason? It turns out that the water we take contains many inorganic salts, such as calcium and magnesium salts. These salts are invisible to the naked eye in water at room temperature. Once they are heated and boiled, a lot of calcium and magnesium salts will precipitate out as carbonates, and they will form scale when they cling to the kettle wall.

We usually use the index of "hardness" to express the content of calcium and magnesium ions in water. A hardness of 1 degree is equivalent to 10 mg of calcium oxide per liter of water. The water below 8 degrees is called soft water, the water above 17 degrees is called hard water, and the water between 8 to 17 degrees is called moderately hard water. Rain, snow, rivers, rivers, and lakes are all soft water, spring water, deep well water, and sea water are all hard water
Raw water refers to untreated water. In a broad sense, the water before entering the water treatment process is also called the raw water of the water treatment. For example, the water sent from the water source to the clarification tank is called raw water.
  
Softened water refers to water whose hardness (mainly refers to calcium and magnesium ions in water) has been removed or reduced to a certain extent. In the process of water softening, only the hardness decreases, while the total salt content does not change.

Desalting water refers to water that has been removed or reduced to a certain extent by salts (mainly strong electrolytes dissolved in water). The electrical conductivity is generally 1.0~10.0μS/cm, the resistivity (25℃)(0.1~1.0)×106Ω˙cm, and the salt content is 1~5mg/L.

Pure water refers to the water that has been removed or reduced to a certain extent by the strong and weak electrolytes (such as SiO2, CO2, etc.) in the water. The electrical conductivity is generally 1.0~0.1μS/cm, and the electrical conductivity (1.01.0~10.0)×106Ω˙cm. The salt content is <1mg/L.

Ultrapure water refers to the water in which the conductive medium in the water is almost completely removed, and the non-dissociated gases, colloids, and organic substances (including bacteria, etc.) are also removed to a very low level. Its electrical conductivity is generally 0.1~0.055μS/cm, resistivity (25℃) ﹥10×106Ω˙cm, salt content ﹤0.1mg/L. Ideal pure water (theoretically) has a conductivity of 0.05μS/cm and a resistivity (25°C) of 18.3×106Ω˙cm.

In today's society, with people's pursuit of a healthy life and increasing concern for environmental quality, water purifiers, as an effective water treatment equipment, is gradually playing an increasingly important role in public places. Schools, hospitals, offices and other public places, due to the high flow of people, high demand for water, water quality requirements are more stringent. Therefore, the application of water purifiers in these places is particularly important.

In recent years, people's requirements for water quality is more and more high, in order to meet people's needs, reverse osmosis ultrapure water system is therefore born, and meet the public recognition. In order to protect the performance and stability of reverse osmosis membrane treatment, and the need to do a good job of maintenance, equipment maintenance in order to water quality in order to be more stable, so we have organized the following several maintenance methods, please come to understand.

The emergence of water purifiers, so that the way of drinking water redefined, the emergence of water purifiers is because the water quality continues to change and the emergence of a way of drinking water; from the ability to drink the river water well water to the tap water to the bucket of water, to the current exceptionally hot water purifier market, is the environment affects the way of drinking water change rather than artificial to speak of this market hype up; like cell phones, because people really need, so the market is Will be hot, if put into a few years ago, the cell phone market is also the need for everyone to introduce.

We all know that in developed countries, water treatment technology is very advanced, the street just twist open a faucet can be directly drinking water, very convenient. Comparison of China, in recent years, with the industrial development, groundwater pollution is more serious, the residents of the daily drinking water can only be bottled water or water purifier-based. In these two competing ways of drinking water, household water purifiers will further replace the bottled water market?

In this regard, Susan will analyze for you. In the current drinking water environment, is still dominated by bottled water, although the water purifier will to a certain extent impact the bottled water market, but want to completely beyond is very difficult to realize, this is because bottled water has a variety of water purifier does not have the advantage.
