(1) Stability Index (SI) calculation using Stiff & Davis method
SI = -0.10 SCALE IS NOT LIKELY
The + ve value indicates that scle is likely to form
The greater the +ve the greater the scale tendency .
(2) Saturation Index (Is) calculation using Oddo & Tomson method (2)
If the PH is measured Is = -0.01 SCALE IS NOT LIKELY
If the P is not measured ( calc.)
H
Is = 0.29 SCALE IS LIKELY
The + ve value indicates that scle is likely to form.
The greater the +ve the greater the scale tendency .
(3) Calculation for the amount of Ca-Carbonate scale in PTB
According to Valone and Skillern Method.

Amount of scale in PTB = 0


NO SCALE IS EXPECTED

NOTES :-
Method # 1 SI=PH-K-PCa -PALK
The value of K is a function of salinity, composition of water and temp.
Values of K are obtained from a graphical correlation with ionic strength & temp .
The curves are based on experimental data measured over the following range :-
0-3.6 molar ionic strength 0 , 30 & 50 deg c.
All curves outside this data curves are extrapolated .
( PH is the actual measured ) .
Method # 2
This method includes the effect of pressure and co 2 % in gas.
This method is said to be valid over the following range :-
Molar ionic strength : 0 - 4 Temp. 0 - 200 deg. c
press. 0 -20 000 psig This method can use the pHmeasured or calculated .
Is=LOG [ TCaAlk 2/ PTX CO2 ] + 5,89+1,549*10-2T-4,26*10-6 T2-7,44*10-5P-2,52 U1/2+0,919 U
Or. Is = LOG (TCaA lk)+PH-2,78+1,143*10-2T-4,72*10-6T2-4,37*10-5P-2,05U1/2+0,727U

Method # 3
This method is used to calc.the max amount of CaCO3 which could precipetate.
This method depends on the method # 1 calculaations .
KSP = 10K-PH PTB = 17500 {G-[X2 + 4 ( 10K-pH )]1/2}
Where G =Ca++ + HCO3- Moles /L K = Stiff & Davis constant.
X =Ca++ - HCO3- Moles /L PH is the actual measured .

Note :-
When S ( meq/L ) = Actual concentration , The water is saturated .
When S ( meq/L ) > Actual concentration , The water is undersaturation and scale is unlikely .
When S ( meq/L ) < Actual concentration , The water is supersaturated and scale is likely .
