    Abstract

    The groundwater of Fourchi which feeds the town of Ain M’lila in the Eastern region of Algeria is derived from limestone. This water have a hardness of 87 ° F and give rise to compact and adherent deposits of calcium carbonate in the drinking water distribution network. To inhibit the furring of this water some chemical and electrochemical treatments (chronoamperometry) were applied in the presence of (Ca(OH)2, Na2CO3 and KH2PO4) to eliminate the scale precipitation. The use of Lime and sodium carbonate is encouraged due to their very low prices. The scale inhibitor KH2PO4 has the property to adsorb on the nuclei of calcium carbonate and modify their growth and morphology at a very low concentration (0.05mg / L). The tests were performed on the Fourchi water in the presence of (Ca(OH)2, Na2CO3 and KH2PO4) allowed us to make partial softening treatment and help solve the problem of scaling. © 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

    1. Introduction

    The groundwater of Fourchi supplying the city of Ain M’lila drinking water come from limestone. These waters are very hard because they are loaded with bicarbonate and calcium. And likely to deposit a large amounts of calcium carbonate (calcification). According to [1] the technical implications and economic effects of scale are: - Partial or total obstruction of pipes with lower river flows - Lower heat transfer - Damage the stopping devices (valves, taps) - Clogging of heat exchangers, filters etc. A number of chemical treatments [2-3-4-5], electrochemical [6-7-8-9-10] and nanofiltration [11-12-13] were used to eliminate the precipitation of scale. Other studies have examined the influence of metal cations (Cu, Fe, Zn, Mn) on the calcium carbonate precipitation using RCP tests (rapid controlled precipitation) [14-15], potential for scaling [16-17-18] The aim of our study is to assess and inhibit the power furring of hard water Fourchi using chronoamperometry (electrochemical method) and another chemical method in the presence of (KH2PO4, Na2CO3 and Ca(OH)2) Lime and sodium carbonate are used because of their very low price. The scale inhibitor KH2PO4 has the property to adsorb on the nuclei of calcium carbonate and modify their growth and morphology. In addition, it acts through a threshold effect (the effective concentration is very low in the order of mg / L) [8]. In order to follow the formation kinetics of calcium carbonate. The technique of accelerated scaling was developed by [19]. Its principle is to coat calcium carbonate metal surface at a potential negative fixed (-1V) versus a reference electrode in saturated KCl. The chemical test in the presence of (KH2PO4, Na2CO3 and Ca (OH)2) can provide partial softening treatment and help solve the problem of scaling. Thus our study is intended firstly to evaluate the quality of hard water (Fourchi), And secondly, the processes application (chronoamperometry and chemical) on the hard water.

    2. Experimental Part

    2.1. Materials and methods 2.1.1. Assessment Quality of water Fourchi The results of physico-chemical groundwater Fourchi analyze obtained are summarized in Table 1.

So it has very high hardness. 2.1.2. Chemical softening tests of the water The experimental setup is described in Fig 1. It is austenitic stainless steel beakers with lids. Stirring is provided by a magnetic bar rotating at 600 rpm on magnetic stirrers

    Fig1. Device used

    In order to study the chemical and partial softening with Ca(OH)2, Na2CO3 and KH2PO4. Beakers with a capacity of one liter were used lids Fig 1. Firstly, cleaned with dilute HCl in half and then rinsed with distilled water and raw water Fourchi. The next step is to introduce 1liter of the raw water Fourchi and 1 liter of treated water of Fourchi in each beaker. It brings the water temperature at (20 ° C, 30 ° C) in a water bath. Emphasis on each stainless steel beaker with a magnetic bar and a lid is placed on a magnetic stirrer after setting the temperature (20 ° C, 30 ° C). We measure the initial pH and maintaining the beakers with stirring at 600 rpm for an hour or three hours, depending on the inhibitor used.

    2.1.3. Accelerated scaling test The electrodeposition involves depositing calcium carbonate on the surface of an electrode unassailable gold or platinum at a potential sufficiently reducing to which we observe the following electrochemical reactions: . reduction of dissolved oxygen O2 + 2H2O + 4e- 4 OH- (1) . reduction of water 2H2O + 2e- 2OH-+ H2 (g) (2) [20] Showed that the presence of oxygen is necessary if one operates - 1V/ECS which favors the reaction (1). The production of hydroxyl ions causes a local elevation of pH on the surface of the electrode which causes the precipitation of calcium carbonate on the electrode by the chemical reaction: HCO3- +OH- +Ca2+ CaCO3(s) + H2O The deposition of calcium carbonate gradually covered the metal surface and the deposit gradually isolates the metal from water. To perform the tests of scaling we use the assembly as per the Fig 2. It is worth mentioning that the test conditions have been improved by [21] by following the steps, in order to have good sensitivity and good reproducibility with a fixed electrode and this to overcome problems associated with the use of a rotating electrode. The main operations are: 1 The polishing of the working electrode with sandpaper 240. 2 The manual brushing of the electrode with a brush made of mild steel. 3 The positioning of three electrodes in the cover (the working electrode should be as close as possible to the platinum electrode and distance constant). 4 The filling of the mother cell of 500 ml and the desired temperature for the test in a water bath with gentle agitation. 5 The recording of the curve I = f (t) and determining the time scaling conventional tE 6 The cleaning brush between each test. According to [7] [22] and [23], this test plating by amperometry is also used to compare the ability of several furring waters.

    For economic reasons, lime is the most alkaline reagent used to provide OH-ions. It was precipitation of CaCO3 by the reaction (3) and (4):

    Ca (HCO3) 2 + Ca (OH)2 2CaCO3 + 2H2O (3)

    Mg (HCO3)2 + 2 Ca (OH)2 2CaCO3 + Mg (OH)2 + 2H2O (4)

    It is found that the thrust decarbonation with lime makes the water less calcified. In addition, it is noted a relative stability of Mg because the amount of lime is not sufficient to raise pH and precipitate the hydroxide state.

    Sodium carbonate precipitates chlorides and sulphates of calcium by the reaction (5) and (6): CaCl2 + Na2CO3 CaCO3 + 2NaCl (5) CaSO4 + Na2CO3 CaCO3 + Na2SO4 (6) Cons by the precipitation of sulfates and chlorides of magnesium require lime and soda ash. Mg Cl2 + Ca(OH)2 + Na2CO3 CaCO3+ Mg(OH)2 + 2NaCl (7) Mg SO4 + Ca(OH)2 + Na2CO3 CaCO3 +Mg(OH)2 + Na2SO4 (8)

    We noted that the reduction of calcium increases with the addition of sodium carbonate. Cons by the concentration of Mg remain relatively constant. 3.1.3.

    It is to note a reduction of calcium carbonate hardness. By cons, there is observed a small reduction in the magnesium. And that can be represented by the reaction (9) and (10):

    2 KH2PO4 + Ca(HCO3)2 CaHPO4 + 2 CO2 + 2 H2O + K2HPO4 (9)

    2 KH2PO4 + Mg(HCO3) MgHPO4 + 2 CO2 + H2O + K2HPO4 (10) 3.2. Assessment of abatement rate on the waters of Fourchi: We can determine the effectiveness of the softening by calculating the rate of reduction of the (HCO3-, Ca2+and Mg2+) is given by the equation: �

    Ci : initial concentration Cf: final concentration.

    Tests conducted in the presence of lime to the waters of Fourchi yield curves of increasing rates of depression (HCO3-, Ca2+ and Mg2+) depending on the amount of lime added, see fig 3. Bicarbonates eliminated better than Ca2+ than Mg2+.

    We see that with an addition of 0.3 g / L of lime to waters of Fourchi at 30 ° C, the abatement rate is 52.83%. By cons, for tests at 20 ° C, leading to a rate of 53.77% for an addition of Ca(OH)2 of 0.4 g / L with a residual concentration of about 100 mg / L (corresponding to drinking water standards).

    This concentration results in optimized residual of 100 mg / L Ca2+ for treated water, by cons for water of Fourchi at 20 ° C , it is 90 mg / L. In addition, we noted the presence of Na2CO3, the best reduction is obtained for Ca2+ for both trials.

For tests conducted in the presence KH2PO4, we noted that the abatement rate (HCO3-, Ca2+, Mg2+) also increases with the addition of KH2PO4 see fig 5. We noticed that the abatement rate is the most important for Ca2+ (52.83%). The residual concentration is about 80 mg / L is reached for an addition of 1 mg / L of KH2PO4 to the waters of Fourchi at 30 ° C. The Ca2+ concentration attained was 100 mg / L. For tests at 20 ° C, we found 3 mg / L addition of KH2PO4 was obtained 200 mg / L of residual Ca2+, with a very low abatement rate of 5.66%.

    3.3. Accelerated testing of scaling Among the methods used to evaluate the power furring of the waters of Fourchi. We used chronoamperometry to voltage clamp to 1V. In this technique, water is characterized by a time scaling tE. More tE is little more water is calcified. Lime scale treatment will be effective when tE treated water becomes greater than that of the raw water. In addition, the higher the residual current (IRES) is small scale will be more compact and adherent. If the inhibitory effect of a product is positive, there is an increase of residual current. There is more adhesive calculus on the electrode [24]. 3.3.1. Crash Tests of scaling the raw water of Fourchi Testing the waters of Fourchi was conducted at 20 ° C on a volume of 500ml. It is to be observed for the raw water of Fourchi Fig 6. That the shape of the curve corresponds to a scale-forming water with T = 20.4 min and a residual current A/cm2 21.16. This corresponds to a compact precipitate CaCO3

Several tests were performed considering increasing temperatures of (20-50) ° C. It is observed that the greater the temperature the more time and this reduces scaling up to 50 ° C Fig 7. The rising temperature increases the rate of reduction of oxygen and decreases the time scaling. This observation was also made by [25]

Inhibition of calcification by KH2PO4 The review shows chronoamperometric curves in the presence of KH2PO4 time scaling increases with the concentration and the current decreases to tend to the residual current Fig 8. This drop in intensity does not result from the deposition of CaCO3 on the electrode but the precipitation of hydrogen phosphate of calcium (CaHPO4) in alkaline (pH approaches 8) according to the reaction:

    H2PO-4 + Ca2+ + 2OH- CaHPO4 (s) + H2O

It is observed that for tests with lime, the significant effect of lime occurs from 0.1 g / L, Fig 10

Conclusion To avoid scale deposits formed by the waters of Fourchi, chemical treatment was applied. The results obtained allowed the partial softening water using lime (Ca(OH)2), sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and potassium dihydrogen phosphate KH2PO4. Use of the chronoamperometric method (accelerated calcification) revealed that the water of fourchi has a high incrustation power and the addition of inhibitors (Ca(OH)2, Na2CO3 and KH2PO4) at different concentrations may provide effective softening these waters. This will lead to the significant increase in the time scaling for these References [1] Rosset R, physical processes antiscalling: myth or reality? Chemical News, January-February 1992, 125-148.
