Water Treatment Chemical Doses: Sodium Thiosulfate
Chemical dosing data for water and wastewater treatment processes. Covers coagulants (alum, ferric chloride, ferric sulfate, PAC, ferrous sulfate), disinfectants (sodium hypochlorite, gaseous chlorine, chlorine dioxide, ozone, UV), pH adjustment chemicals (lime, soda ash, caustic soda, sulfuric acid, CO2), softening agents, dechlorination chemicals (sodium bisulfite, sodium thiosulfate), polymers (cationic, anionic, nonionic), fluoridation chemicals, activated carbon, potassium permanganate, ammonia, and copper sulfate. Each record includes typical dose range (mg/L), optimal pH range, contact time, chemical form, commercial concentration, specific gravity, cost, safety hazards, and storage requirements. 41 records per AWWA, EPA, and Metcalf & Eddy references.
