  2. Ultrapure water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrapure_water

    Ultrapure water (UPW), high-purity water or highly purified water (HPW) is water that has been purified to uncommonly stringent specifications. Ultrapure water is a term commonly used in manufacturing to emphasize the fact that the water is treated to the highest levels of purity for all contaminant types, including: organic and inorganic compounds; dissolved and particulate matter; volatile ...

  3. Chemical plant cost indexes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_plant_cost_indexes

    A cost index is the ratio of the actual price in a time period compared to that in a selected base period (a defined point in time or the average price in a certain year), multiplied by 100. Raw materials, products and energy prices, labor and construction costs change at different rates, and plant construction cost indexes are actually a ...

  4. Levelized cost of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levelized_cost_of_water

    Desalination, which produces usable water from saline water, has a higher LCW than processing groundwater or surface water. A 2020 study found that advances in decarbonization would reduce the levelized cost of water produced via desalination from €2.4 per cubic meter in 2015 (US$2.84) to €1.05 per cubic meter in 2050 (US$1.24).

  5. Lang factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lang_factor

    The Lang Factor is an estimated ratio of the total cost of creating a process within a plant, to the cost of all major technical components. It is widely used in industrial engineering to calculate the capital and operating costs of a plant. [1] [2] [3]

  6. Total organic carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_organic_carbon

    Persulfate methods are used in the analysis of wastewater, drinking water, and pharmaceutical waters. When used in conjunction with sensitive NDIR detectors heated persulfate TOC instruments readily measure TOC at single digit parts per billion (ppb) up to hundreds of parts per million (ppm) depending on sample volumes.

  7. Analysis of water chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_water_chemistry

    Chemical water analysis is carried out on water used in industrial processes, on waste-water stream, on rivers and stream, on rainfall and on the sea. [1] In all cases the results of the analysis provides information that can be used to make decisions or to provide re-assurance that conditions are as expected.

  8. Total dissolved solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dissolved_solids

    14] Water can be classified by the level of total dissolved solids (TDS) in the water: Fresh water: TDS is less than 1,000 ppm. Brackish water: TDS = 1,000 to 10,000 ppm. Saline water: TDS = 10,000 to 35,000 ppm. Hypersaline: TDS greater than 35,000 ppm. Drinking water generally has a TDS below 500 ppm.

    The examples don't seem to be too accurate. A drop is usually defined as 0.05 ml, which then gives;. 1 drop in 50 ml = 1‰, 50ml is a very small cup 1 drop in 50 l = 1ppm 50 l is about 11 gallons, not 40 1 drop in 50 cubic metres = 1 ppb 1 drop = 1ppt, a 50 m swimming pool is 50*25*2 = 2,500 m^3 1 drop in 50,000,000 cubic metres = 1ppq, 50,000,000 m^3 is equivalent to a lake covering a square ...
