| Corosex©: |
| Corosex, being a highly
reactive magnesium oxide, is used most effectively where pH correction
is substantial or high flow conditions are in use. pH correction and
media consumption are affected by a number of water chemical variables.
Being soluble to acidity, Corosex will slowly dissolve and will need
to be replenished periodically. On a per weight basis, magnesium oxide
can neutralize much more acidity than can calcium carbonate, (five
times as much). This results in greatly reduced chemical usage for
the same pH correction. |
| Please note, under
certain low flow conditions, Corosex may overcorrect and create a
highly basic (high pH) condition. |
