DISSOLVED OXYGEN AND BOILER WATER CORROSION Available to Purchase

In general, whenever water and metals are in contact with each other in the presence of air and dissolved salts, corrosion will usually occur. The critical factors in this situation will be the nature of the metal, the composition of the water, i.e. its pH, conductivity, the concentration and the composition of the dissolved salts, and the temperature. Elevated temperatures, as in boiler water systems, exacerbate any corrosion problems.
