Corosex is a highly reactive media made from magnesium oxide (MgO), used to neutralize acidic water by raising its pH. Here are its key features and how it works with Juraperle:
Key Features of Corosex:
- Composition: Corosex is primarily composed of magnesium oxide, which is very effective at neutralizing acidity. It can neutralize significantly more acidity than calcium carbonate by weight.
- Function: It neutralizes free carbon dioxide in water, helping to correct acidic conditions and reduce water corrosiveness.
- Usage: Ideal for situations requiring substantial pH correction or high flow conditions. Corosex dissolves slowly in acidic water and needs periodic replenishment.
- Advantages: Offers rapid pH adjustment, allowing for high flow rates and reduced chemical usage.
Using Corosex with Juraperle:
- Complementary Action: Juraperle (calcium carbonate) provides a steady, controlled increase in pH, while Corosex (magnesium oxide) offers a more rapid adjustment. Together, they balance each other, ensuring effective and stable pH correction.
- Application: In water treatment systems, Corosex can be mixed with Juraperle to enhance the pH correction process. This combination is particularly useful for treating water with low pH levels, as Corosex handles substantial corrections while Juraperle provides a steady, controlled increase in pH.
- Maintenance: Regular backwashing is necessary to prevent the cementing of the Corosex bed and to remove accumulated particles, ensuring the longevity and efficiency of the media.
By combining Corosex and Juraperle, you can achieve a more comprehensive and effective pH correction in your water treatment system, ensuring the water is safe and pleasant to use.
