Hazards of water scale
What is the water scale ?
Water scale, refers to the white block or powdery substance gradually formed in the container (such as pot, etc.,) after the hard water is boiled with minersal contained in it. The main components are calcium titanate, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium titante, calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride etc.,
Formation of Water Scale
At high temperature, calcium sulfate containing slightly soluable water will be percipated due to the evaporation of water, and the carbonate in the water will combine with calcium, magnesium and other ions to form calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate that atre insoluble in water, that is water alkali. With the continuous evaporation and concentration of water, the content of water and alkali increases continuously, so that water scale is formed after reaching saturation.
The detrimental effects of water scale on the body
Water scale poses significant harm to the body due to its composition of harmful metal elements. Prolonged exposure or excessive ingestion of scale can lead to various systemic diseases, impacting digestion, nerves, and urinary circulation. When the body cannot absorb the scale, it may result in symptoms such as gastrointestinal dysfunction, posing serious health risks. Pregnant women are particularly vulnerable, as consumption of water containing scale may lead to fetal malformation and endanger both maternal and fetal health. To mitigate these risks, it is essential to promptly clean water containers to prevent scale buildup and safeguard against these health hazards.
The harm of water scale to water related equipments
Water scale poses a threat to various hot water conversion equipment, including electric water heaters, combustion heat systems, instantaneous water heaters, solar water heaters, air energy water heaters, showers, faucets, smart toilets, thermostatic showers, and more.
Water scale equipment refers to devices or systems designed to address or mitigate the effects of water scale buildup in various applications. Water Softeners, Water Descalers, Scale Inhibitors, Water Filteration Systems, Reverse Osmosis Systems. These types of equipment help to extend the lifespan and improve the efficiency of hot water systems, appliances, and plumbing by preventing or reducing the harmful effects of water scale.
Water scale increases electrical energy consumption
Water scale exhibits significantly low thermal conductivity, measuring only about 1% of that of steel, which typically ranges from 46.5 to 58.2 watts per meter. With a thermal conductivity of water scale ranging from 0.113 to 6.96 watts per meter, its presence leads to a decline in heat transfer efficiency to the heated surface, resulting in the wastage of fuel or electricity.
Water scale contributes to an increase in electrical energy consumption.
| The thickness of water scale(mm) | 0.8 | 2.82 | 3.18 | 12.7 | 19.05 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Excess heat consumption (%) | 4% | 18% | 38% | 60% | 90% |
