Inhibition of scaling in the presence of copper and zinc by various chemical processes

Water-Use and Conservation in the Commercial Vehicle Washing Industry in Urban Ghana: The Case of Cape Coast Metropolis

“…A Statement issued by Brown [1] on World Water Day and White House Water Summit attests that no matter where you live, access to water is not guaranteed. Ghizellaoui, et al [2] concluded that, in view of the importance of treated water and the limited capacity for its treatment and production, there is the need to manage it judiciously to avoid wastage and pollution. The commercial vehicle washing industry is one of the industries that requires large quantities of quality water for their operations [3].…”

Anti-scaling properties of zinc ion and copper ion in the recycling water

“…The inhibiting effectiveness of zinc or copper ion in the water was shown by some literatures [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. However, they do not consider the relationship between the scaling of the tube wall and the solution.…”

Inhibition of Scaling of Water by the Electrostatic Treatment

“…Recently some environmentally friendly organic inhibitors (Nowack 2003;Martinod et al 2008) are widely used but the quantity of usage is possibly very large. Besides some metal ions as inhibitors Katz 1999, 2000;Hui and Lédion 2002;Lédion et al 2002;Ghizellaoui et al 2004;Dmitry et al 2005;Yang 2006; Ghizellaoui et al 2007) are also proposed recently but probably limited in drinking water.…”
